"Ys IX: Monstrum Nox" Announced for PlayStation 5

"Ys IX: Monstrum Nox" is the latest title in the long-running Ys series and was made available worldwide on the PS4, Nintendo Switch, and PC in 2021. It was recently announced that you can add the PlayStation 5 to that list as it is hitting that console in Spring 2023!

While full release details have yet to be revealed, we do know that the new PS5 version will release with all cosmetic DLC from all previous versions, and that you can pre-order the Limited Edition version right now on the NISA Online Store!

A new announcement trailer has been released that you can watch below.

Renowned adventurer Adol “the Red” Christin and his companion Dogi arrive at Balduq, a city annexed by the Romun Empire, only for Adol to be detained before their adventure can begin. While imprisoned, Adol meets a mysterious woman named Aprilis who turns him into a Monstrum—a being with supernatural Gifts and the power to exorcize monsters.

Now, Adol must team up with his fellow Monstrums to fend off the fearsome threats emerging from the shadowy dimension known as Grimwald Nox, unravel the mysteries of the Monstrum curse, and discover the truth behind the unrest within Balduq. Join Adol in this iteration of the Ys series coming to PS5!

• Feared Protectors: Play as any of the six notorious Monstrums, each with their own unique Gifts that grant abilities, such as scaling sheer walls or detecting hidden objects, to protect the city from shadowy creatures. 
• The World Within the Walls: Explore the massive city, accept quests to aid the townsfolk, and enter the Grimwald Nox to vanquish the threats to Balduq.
• Strength of the Night: Familiar mechanics such as Flash Move and Flash Guard allow you to outmaneuver your foes, while new additions such as Gifts and Boost Mode further augment your ability to fight.
