Aside from developing games for the above three consoles, Falcom also plans to focus on music, releasing CDs and albums within Japan. It will also grow its existing IPs through merchandise, novels, international releases, digital versions, and mobile apps. At present, Falcom releases about two to three new titles per year. However, it wants to increase its output. Within three years, it hopes to start releasing four to five titles per year.
Upcoming games from Falcom include:
Currently, Falcom's two prominent series are the Trails and Ys games. It hopes to create a new IP in the near future though. According to the report it gave investors, while there are many long-time fans of the series, it cannot guarantee that they won't lose interest. This is part of why Falcom wants to expand its library of IPs.
More information on the unannounced Falcom games should come out in the near future. So far, the only new game with a set release date in the presentation is The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak.
