The Ys series of action-RPG games have been around for a very long time, as long as the venerable Final Fantasy series; both series actually debuted in 1987 for the NEC PC-8801 and the NES respectively. While the Final Fantasy games tend to be stand alone stories with different settings/characters, the Ys series revolves around the main character, Adol Christin, a young adventurer who visits various regions set in the island of Ys throughout the games.
Originally released in 2009 for the PSP, Ys Chronicles II is set for an iOS & Android debut in a version of the game that is especially adapted for touch gameplay, thanks to the folks at DotEmu. In Ys Chronicles II (also known as Ys II: Ancient Ys Vanished – The Final Chapter), players take on the role as the adventurous Adol Christin, who, after collecting the sacred books in Ys Chronicles I, must continue his quest to unravel the true secrets of the island of Ys.
As Adol, players get to show off their swordsmanship, discover new weapons, and for the first time use magic to free Esteria from evil in the second chapter of this renowned series. As the second largest eastern RPG series after Final Fantasy, I’m pretty sure there are plenty of fans who are excited over this upcoming release, so stay tuned to Nineoverten.com for more details.
