A new PS5 Characters trailer was also released. Ys IX: Monstrum Nox first launched on September 26, 2019, in Japan, then on February 2, 2021, in North America for PlayStation 4. The game is also available on PC, Stadia, and Nintendo Switch.
The game’s details via NIS America can be seen below:
Renowned adventurer Adol “the Red” Christin and his companion Dogi arrive at Balduq, a city annexed by the Romun Empire, only for Adol to be detained before their adventure can begin. While imprisoned, Adol meets a mysterious woman named Aprilis who turns him into a Monstrum—a being with supernatural Gifts and the power to exorcize monsters.
Now, Adol must team up with his fellow Monstrums to fend off the fearsome threats emerging from the shadowy dimension known as the Grimwald Nox, unravel the mysteries of the Monstrum curse, and discover the truth behind the unrest within Balduq. Join Adol in this iteration of the Ys series coming to PlayStation 5.
