by MoreLikeAndy

XSEED announced today that the prequel to the popular Ys series, Ys Origin will be coming to Steam on May 31st. At the price point of $19.99, this is a perfect time to get acquainted with what everyone in Japan got to play back in 2006.

Besides having the game translated in English for the first time, being on Steam will have the usual achievements and cloud support. For those who prefer to use a controller instead of mouse and keyboard, you heathens, you will have that option as well.

XSEED Games Coming to Steam, Ys Origin & Ys: The Oath in Felghana To Be Among the First

by MoreLikeAndy

From what I played on my PSP, XSEED Games were some of the most played by far. The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky, Lunar: Silver Star Harmony and Ys: The Oath in Felghana were always either on my PSP or ready to go in my PSP’s case.

Now, XSEED Games has released info that the games you loved to play on your handheld or console will be coming to Steam. It all starts on March 19th with Ys: The Oath in Felghana for $14.99. This edition includes Steamworks features such as Steam Achievements and Steam Cloud support. Later on down the road, we’ll get something special for Ys fans: Ys Origin was never released outside of Japan so to have this game finally released in English in North America is a pretty big deal. I’m excited about that particular announcement.

What games from XSEED would you like to see released next on Steam? I’m thinking Little King’s Story myself!
