Ys X: Nordics Gets First Official Trailer

Developer Nihon Falcom released its first official trailer for its latest Ys action RPG, Ys X: Nordics. The two-minute video introduces the game’s cast, including series mainstay Adol Christin and new co-protagonist Karja, as well as some brief snippets of its exploration, combat, and story events.

Ys X: Nordics takes place between the events of Ys I & II and Ys: Memories of Celceta. The game features two combat modes: Solo Mode and Combination Mode. Solo Mode plays similarly to previous titles, with players controlling one character while the AI controls the other. Combination Mode, meanwhile, has players fight with both Adol and Karja at the same time. Ys X: Nordics is planned to release for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch in Japan on September 28, 2023, with no announcement made regarding a western release.
