As well as announcing that the release date for the upcoming Ys Origin has been changed and will now take place on May 30th, 2017, Jessica Iragne from DotEmu has revealed more details and published a new trailer that showcases the new battle system within the game.
The latest game will arrive 10 years after the original and provides gamers with an epic action RPG which has been enhanced and equipped with brand-new features, including new optimized visual effects and more.
New Characters and Gameplay Mechanics
In Ys Origin, you don’t play as Adol — instead, you can choose between different heroes with their own attributes and stories. Today I’d like to share with you a new video introducing Yunica and Hugo, the two main characters. On one side we have Yunica, a mighty warrior who’s quite handy with an axe. She’s the perfect character for players who savor close combat and vicious fights!
Opposite Yunica we have Hugo, a cunning sorcerer who uses powerful spells to defeat his enemies. If you prefer distant (and hopefully safer) attacks, Hugo is your man. Whichever character you choose, only with guile and talent will you free the Goddesses trapped in Devil’s Tower.
Enhanced Visuals and Battle System
The game has undergone significant visual enhancements to bring it up to modern standards. The optimized visual effects make the game more immersive, with detailed environments and fluid character animations. The new battle system is designed to be more engaging, offering a variety of combat styles depending on the character you choose. Yunica’s close-combat prowess contrasts sharply with Hugo’s ranged magical attacks, providing a diverse gameplay experience.
Additionally, the game includes various difficulty levels, making it accessible to both newcomers and veterans of the series. The inclusion of different heroes with unique abilities ensures that players can find a playstyle that suits them best. For example, Yunica’s brute strength and melee attacks are ideal for those who enjoy direct confrontation, while Hugo’s magical prowess allows for strategic, ranged combat.
The storyline of Ys Origin is also compelling, offering a rich narrative that delves into the lore of the Ys universe. Players will explore the depths of Devil’s Tower, encountering various enemies and bosses, each requiring different strategies to defeat. The game’s pacing ensures that players are constantly engaged, with a mix of exploration, puzzle-solving, and intense battles.
Moreover, the soundtrack of Ys Origin deserves special mention. Composed by the renowned Falcom Sound Team jdk, the music perfectly complements the game’s atmosphere, enhancing the overall experience. The combination of high-energy battle themes and serene exploration tracks adds depth to the game’s world.
