Like other popular Japanese franchises such as Final Fantasy, Zelda, and Dragon Quest, this series has run since the early to mid 1980's.
The very first entry was "Dragon Slayer: The Legend of Heroes" appearing in 1989 on NEC PC-8801, followed by other platforms later on.
When the first one released way back then, even though it was the first Legend of Heroes game, it was actually the sixth game in the Dragon Slayer series, also owned by Nihon Falcom and began in 1984.
It was published in the west for the TurboGrafx-CD PC Engine in December of 1992, and remained the only Legend of Heroes game released in North America until 2005's The Legend of Heroes: A Tear of Vermillion or Eiyū Densetsu IV Akai Shizuku (英雄伝説IV 朱紅い雫) was released on the PSP.
Since then, the series remained a PSP JRPG staple for a while until the Trails of Cold Steel series began releasing on PS3 and Vita in 2015, followed by PS4 versions, and more.
