About Ys: The Oath in Felghana
Adol Christin and his companion Dogi return to Dogi’s hometown of Felghana after eight years, only to find monsters roaming the outskirts, a volcano re‑awakening, and a new lord extorting the citizens. Their arrival pulls them into political intrigue, ancient legacies, and taboo mysteries.
The game is a 3D remake of the 16‑bit classic, offering fast‑paced action RPG combat, Metroidvania‑style exploration, and epic boss battles. It runs on Windows with Steam achievements, cloud saves, and optional gamepad support.
