NIS America have today confirmed that the definitive edition of Ys X: Nordics, known as Ys X: Proud Nordics, will be released for the Nintendo Switch 2 and Windows PC in Europe (and North America) next year.
Ys X: Proud Nordics offers the same combat and story found within the original game, but updated with new gameplay mechanics, a higher difficulty dungeon, and a more expansive (and new) storyline that is integrated into the original story.
About: After a tense encounter at sea, the young red-haired adventurer Adol and the proud Norman Karja find themselves bound together by shackles of Mana, and by the looming threat of an undying horde known as the Griegr, who seek to pillage the vibrant Obelia Gulf. Aboard their ship, the Sandras, Adol and Karja gather a trusty crew of friends and allies as they go head-to-head with the Griegr in one unforgettable journey!
Ys X: Proud Nordics will feature English & Japanese audio with English, French, German, Spanish (European) text/subtitles. A physical release is also planned for the Nintendo Switch 2, with pre-orders opening soon, but it will be a Game-Key Card edition (which requires the game to be downloaded to the Nintendo Switch 2 console before being played).
In the meantime Ys X: Proud Nordics is scheduled to release early 2026 for Nintendo Switch 2 and Windows PC, but Ys X: Nordics is available for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Windows PC. Additional details can also be found on the official website.
