The legendary Ys series is one of the longest running JRPG series ever and has been around for over 30 years now. With its newest installment 'Ys IX: Monstrum Nox' only a few weeks away from a western release, we wanted to take a look back at where the series all began. The first entry 'Ys: Ancient Ys Vanished' initially came out for Japanese computer systems in 1987 but would be re-released near countless times over the years. This retrospective is going to focus on the Chronicles + version from 2013, which features brand new graphics and cutscenes, a remastered soundtrack, small narrative changes, slight QoL improvements, etc. As a huge fan of the franchise who hadn't played the OG games until now, it was really interesting to see where the roots of the story started. Check out the full video to see our thoughts in detail! Also, I played this on normal mode for anyone curious. Meant to mention that in the video.

Thanks for watching everyone! If you enjoyed this it would mean a lot if you could either like it or leave a comment with your thoughts. For those that have played all versions of Ys 1, what is your favorite? Is it worth going back to play the true original after playing through Chronicles?

Stay tuned for more Ys content over the next few weeks leading up to the release of Monstrum Nox!
