Ys X: Nordics is an action RPG to look forward to


Remember the days where you'd hear about an amazing new game, only available in Japan? And when we'd eagerly await news…

As noted, the last two games didn't run very well on Switch and, initial impressions of Ys X suggested that might also be the case here but thankfully, things smooth out and after many hours of play, I found that it is largely acceptable but not amazing. The game holds the 30fps target very well from initial testing but the unlocked mode is pretty unstable in areas with lots of enemies or NPCs around so I can understand the option. And speaking of audio related topics, there's also the soundtrack which, in typical Falcom fashion, is of excellent quality with a nice mix of driving tunes and calmer melodies.
