Ys Origin is a prequel to the Ys series, and takes place 700 years before the events of Ys I.

Ys Origin is a Japanese Action RPG released in 2006 for Microsoft Windows by Nihon Falcom. It’s the seventh game in the Ys series but as a prequel, it’s the first in terms of chronology. It’s also the first game in the series not to revolve around the adventures of Adol Christin.

Taking place 700 years before the events of “Ancient Ys Vanished” (Ys I & II), this game tells much of the back-story of Ys, Darm Tower, the Black Pearl, the twin goddesses and the six priests. The game revolves around three characters as they journey through Darm Tower: Yunica Tovah, Hugo Fact and Thor Fact. Each character has their own motives for climbing the tower and playing through with all three characters will reveal the entirety of the events taking place.

The patch translates all the game (texts, graphics and executable) into English. It removes the region check and the Windows Japanese version check. It’s fully playable now. Enjoy it!

Staff note: The patch is too big to be hosted here, head over to the official homepage of the project to get it:
