Ys X: Nordics – About The Game
To get to know more about the Ys X: Nordics, Anime News Network describes the upcoming game:
“It takes place in an archipelago in Obelia Bay inhabited by the seafaring Normans. Protagonist Adol Christin becomes involved in their affairs, as he also encounters a new enemy called “Griegers,” the undying undead that are terrorizing humans.
The game now allows for “Solo Mode” combat where players control one character with automatic support from another character, as well as “Combination Mode,” which allows players to control two characters simultaneously. The game also features a navigable ship that players can use to explore the seas and archipelago, as well as engage in ship-to-ship combat.”
