Hi, fellow PlayStation enthusiasts! It’s Jessica from DotEmu. I hope you’re ready to discover (or rediscover) Ys Origin on your PS4, because it launches in about two weeks!

You’ll finally be able to experience this epic action-RPG ten years after its original release, with additional enhancements and brand-new features. The biggest changes we made were to optimize the visuals and effects, and also improve the UI and menus so that players can enjoy the full HD widescreen experience. Moreover, you’ll be able to enjoy online leaderboards, Trophies, and new languages for the first time ever. It was hard work, and we’re really excited for the release!

In Ys Origin, you don’t play as Adol — instead, you can choose between different heros 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.

At PlayStation Experience we announced a PS Vita release date, but we’re going to invest more time on this version to give you the most enjoyable experience. That’s why we’ve decided to change the release date of the PS Vita version to May 30.

Get ready to grab your PS4 copy on February 21! And Vita players, thanks for your patience — the game is coming soon! We’re 100% focused on it.

See you soon!
