Ys Origin will be getting a physical release for both PlayStation 4 and the Vita, Limited Run Games announced over on Twitter. The game will come in both a Collector’s Edition and a standard edition, and the Collector’s Edition will contain an art book.
Ys Origin is a prequel to the series’ seven previous titles, taking place 700 years before the events of Ys I: Ancient Ys Vanished. Here is an official overview of the game:
“Following a devastating demonic invasion, the twin Goddesses use their magic to bring the inhabitants of legendary Ys safely into the sky. While the demons work to construct Devil’s Tower and reach the humans’ new abode, the Goddesses disappear. As a mighty warrior or a cunning mage, you must seek the Goddesses in Devil’s Tower. With your swordsmanship and spells, can you banish evil from the land of your ancestors?”
Ys Origin originally released in Japan for PC in December of 2006. It didn’t release worldwide until six years later.
