Evaluation

Ys: The Oath in Felghana is a fully complete action RPG that originally launched on Steam on March 19, 2012 as an English localization of Falcom's 2005 PC classic. The store description presents it as a finished product with no mention of planned additions or ongoing content. The only post-launch update on record added English voice acting and alternate soundtracks on February 19, 2020 — features ported from the console version. There is no DLC, no announced future content, no roadmap, and no developer communication suggesting anything further is planned. The game launched as a complete, self-contained experience and has remained so.

About this game

When redheaded thrill-seeker Adol Christin and his eternal blue-haired companion Dogi make an unannounced visit to Dogi's homeland of Felghana after an eight-year absence, it quickly becomes apparent that things have changed dramatically. Hordes of violent monsters roam the outskirts of town, a long-dormant volcano has suddenly sprung back to life and the new lord of the land has begun mercilessly and inexplicably extorting money from its long-suffering citizens. While Dogi seeks out his former combat master for answers, Adol tends to the townsfolk -- and finds himself embroiled in a world of political conspiracies, ancient legacies and unthinkable taboos.

A complete 3D reimagining of the 16-bit console classic "Ys III: Wanderers From Ys," Ys: The Oath in Felghana is a fast-paced action role-playing game with tight controls, Metroidvania-style exploration elements, intense combat with epic screen-filling boss battles, and a thrashing, percussive arranged soundtrack that's been heralded by many as one of the best of all time. Based on the original 2005 PC release, this classic is finally officially available in English with added Steamworks features such as achievements and cloud saving.

Come see why Falcom fans the world over regard this game as "Ys, Perfected"!
