Ys X: Proud Nordics Gets New Trailer

Nihon Falcom released a new Japanese trailer for Ys X: Proud Nordics, its upcoming enhanced version of action RPG Ys X: Nordics. The two-and-a-half-minute video shows the new features in the game — which releases for Nintendo Switch 2 in Japan on July 31, 2025 — including its new story content and gameplay elements.

Ys X: Nordics takes place between the events of Ys I & II and Ys: Memories of Celceta. It sees Adol visiting the northern sea’s Obelia Bay, where he encounters a seafaring people called the Normans. After allying with the pirate Karja Balta, the two work to save the archipelago’s people from apparently immortal creatures called Griegr.  The game’s combat system allows players to take control of Adol and Karja independently or as a duo, while players can explore the seas on their ship, the Sandras, and engage in naval battles.
