Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana has been announced for the Nintendo Switch and will release in 2025!

As with many games in the Ys series, you can start your Ys adventure here without prior knowledge of other games in the series.

This entry in the Ys franchise originally released in 2005 on PC, with an enhanced port arriving on the PSP in 2010. This Nintendo Switch version of the game is based on the enhanced PSP port, which boasted New Game+, new voice acting and a mechanic called ‘double boost’ to speed up your progress. The enhancements seen in the PSP version will all be present in the Nintendo Switch version, as well as improved textures.

Here’s the official word from the publisher:

Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana follows thrill-seeking protagonist Adol and his blue-haired companion Dogi as they return to Dogi’s homeland of Felghana. The eight years they’ve been away have not been kind to the lands which are now filled with roaming monsters, a newly active volcano, and a greedy new overlord extorting the suffering residents. While Dogi seeks help from his former master, Adol remains to help the locals, only to find himself embroiled in a world of conspiracies and ancient legacies.

With remastered high-definition visuals and music, the epic adventure has never looked or sounded better. Additional features include multiple versions of the sweeping soundtrack, accessibility options, and brand-new character illustrations, making Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana the definitive edition of the acclaimed masterpiece.
