The basic gameplay is nearly identical to the previous entries with a few changes.
The biggest change to the battle system and also counting as a brand new feature is the "Tactical Link System".
The "Tactical Link" allow players follow up with three different kinds of link attacks, dealing additional damage and providing various other benefits. "Tactical Link" becomes a more useful asset to the player as the story progress and characters level up their "Link Levels" with other characters.
As the link levels increase, you will obtain new link abilities such as healing the link partner or increase the CP gain of the partner.
About PlayStation Vita
Sony's PlayStation Vita (2011) was a technically impressive handheld that never found the commercial audience it deserved, leading to a comparatively small but well-regarded library. Because Sony discontinued cartridge production relatively early and shut down the PSN storefront for new purchases, physical Vita games — some produced in very limited numbers by niche publishers — have become a genuinely scarce, actively appreciating collecting niche.
Gamevaro tracks The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel for PlayStation Vita with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS VITA release dates back to 2013.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation Vita titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
