I heard rumors about Ys Origins being localized, but I didn't think it'd release so quickly out of nowhere. I've been wanting to play this game for over 5 years now as it was only a Japanese release exclusive and so I couldn't get it. Ys Origin is a classic-style Action-RPG with Pseudo-3D graphics in a very fast-paced game environment (adventure and platforming). The Ys series has existed since 1987 and has since had 9 installments but has always been under the radar and satisfied niche players or fans of the series. The series can almost be seen as a hack-n-slash the way the combat works. Combat is fast-paced and movement can be a bit too fast for first time players, but it's a welcome mechanic to have the flow of the game push forward at high speed rather than crawl along. I'm not exactly sure if there has been any additional content added to the international release of Ys Origin, but there seems to be quite a bit the player could do. There are 3 playable characters with additional ones in other modes, 5 difficulty levels (the game can be quite challenging), Time Attack mode, Boss Rush mode, and an Arena mode for the most replay value it can offer. The game has been adjusted to support true wide-screen and high-resolution (remember that the game released back in 2006 and may not have supported those things) and it supports various gamepads. It's only a shame that I have so many games backlogged now compared to 5 years ago when I barely had any as I'll be now waiting a bit longer before playing this game. Ys Origins is now available on Steam for $19.99.
