The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel III (英雄伝説 閃の軌跡III Eiyū Densetsu: Sen no Kiseki Surī?) is an upcoming role-playing video game by developer Nihon Falcom. It is the thirteenth separate entry in Falcom's long-running The Legend of Heroes, and a direct sequel to the prior two entries, Trails of Cold Steel and Trails of Cold Steel II. The game is scheduled for release on the PlayStation 4 video game console in Japan by the end of 2017. No plans for an English region release have been announced.

The game is expected to play as a traditional JRPG with turn-based battles, similar to Trails of Cold Steel and Trails of Cold Steel II. An emphasis on speeding up battles is being made as well, including making transitions into battle scenes more seamless, and being able to map out more battle commands to specific buttons rather than various menus, though the battles will still be primarily menu-based.

The game is a direct sequel to the prior two Trails of Cold Steel games, picking up one and a half years after the events of Trails of Cold Steel II. The story will be centered around main character Rean and the rest of his military school friends from the prior two entries, notably exploring subjects such as the mysterious origin's of Rean's birth, and what others have been up to since the events of the prior games. The game will also feature appearances from characters from Trails in the Sky, a separate meta series within The Legend of Heroes series, and a specific-yet-unrevealed character from Trails to Zero.
