Japanese publisher Nihon Falcom has made two significant announcements today. Firstly, an updated version of Ys X: Proud Nordics, the tenth entry in the series, will be released with new features including a new location, Aland Island, new Mana Actions, and more. This update will feature new story content, bosses, and arena battles that will test players’ skills.
On a related note, Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, a remake of the first entry in the series, has been confirmed to launch on PC and PlayStation 5 during Fall 2025. The game will be published by GungHo Online Entertainment, offering English and Japanese voice-overs and subtitles for Western players.
While fans are excited about the new release window and platforms for Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, some may feel that the announcement of Ys X: Proud Nordics so close to its Western release is less substantial. Despite this, the updated version promises significant new content that could enhance the original experience without requiring players to purchase the game again.
