    This game was amazing on the Switch and now it has been upscaled to the PS5. Using the PS5 controller makes this game more fun to play on the big screen in your family room.

    I love YS 9, it’s a great game with an interesting story and characters. So when NIS announced they would release the game again on PS5, I was immediately interested in owning the physical. This was a limited print run just like the YS 8 PS5 release. Don’t sleep on these PS5 releases, physical media is getting less and less available. They don’t want you to own anything!

    Ys IX: Monstrum Nox is a new entry in the Ys series that has received positive reviews for its gripping story, great exploration mechanics, solid combat, and a very tight pace that keeps players interested. It’s an addictive and engaging action-RPG with fast-paced combat, a memorable setting, and a surprisingly content-rich open world. It’s a game that action-RPG fans won’t want to miss out on.

    Excellent game! If you have the PS4 version, it’s not really worth the upgrade. But if you don’t have the game it’s a must!

    The Ys series is one of the best Action RPG series around, and Ys IX is no exception. A great cast of characters, a thrilling battle system, and some of the best music in any RPG. While I feel that Ys VIII was better overall, I still think that it is another great entry. Looking forward to Ys X Nordics!

    It's a Ys game. Second only in my opinion to the Legend of Hero's franchises. This game really was a lot of fun to play and has replay values.

    Y's is one of the most fun series to just pick up and play and Y's IX is a cool new take on the series given the setting and gameplay. Must play!
