Falcom and NIS America have announced that Ys 10: Nordics, the latest title in the developer’s legendary action RPG series, will launch on October 25th for the West. It will be available on PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch and PC on release. Check out the trailer below, which showcases some gameplay and the English voices.
Available in September 2023 for Japan, the story takes place between Ys 2 and Ys: Memories of Celceta to focus on a younger Adol Christin. He and his best friend Dogi arrive at a new location, Obelia Gulf, and encounter seafaring warriors known as Normans. Karja Balta is one such individual and finds herself bound to Adol as the story progresses.
This leads to the Cross Action System, where players can switch between Adol and Karja for different attacks. They can also utilize Mana to explore the world, whether surfing on air currents, destroying obstacles or grappling. Ys 10: Nordics is also the first title to offer naval combat and traversal, with Adol utilizing the Sandras to explore the Gulf. Head here for more gameplay and details.
