Released in Japan on September 26, 2019, Ys IX: Monstrum Nox marks the ninth mainline game in the series.  Upon arriving with his companion Dogi at the Romun Empire-annexed city of Balduq, Adol is captured and detained. After meeting the mysterious Aprilis, she uses her strange powers to transform him into a Monstrum – a creature who can exorcise monsters – to battle the darkness originating from a dark dimension known as Grimwald Nox and uncover the prison city’s secrets.

Those looking to get their hands on the game won’t have to wait much longer. Ys IX: Monstrum Nox will release on the PS4 on February 2, 2021 before heading to the Nintendo Switch and PC next Summer.
