The Legend of Heroes is a series of role-playing games developed by Nihon Falcom Corporation.

The first of the series was released in 1989 as Dragon Slayer: The Legend of Heroes, and was part of the Dragon Slayer line of games. It was released for various computer platforms such as the NEC PC-88, the NEC PC-98, the MSX 2, the Sharp X68000, as well as consoles such as the Sega Mega Drive, Super Famicom, and the PC Engine. This title was followed by Dragon Slayer: The Legend of Heroes II, released in 1992 for a similar selection of platforms. The 1st Legend of Heroes game, was released in the US, for the TurboGrafx-CD in 1991.

Subsequent games in the series dropped their association with the Dragon Slayer saga. The Legend of Heroes III, The Legend of Heroes IV, and The Legend of Heroes V comprised the "Gagharv Trilogy", a set of connected games taking place in the same world.

After the conclusion of the Gagharv Trilogy, a new story began with The Legend of Heroes VI: Sora no Kiseki. This game was followed up by The Legend of Heroes: Sora no Kiseki Second Chapter.
