Attention classic JRPG fans and Nintendo Switch owners: a notable deal has surfaced for a highly-regarded action RPG. Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana – D1 Refined Edition, in its physical form for the Nintendo Switch, is currently available at a significant discount, dropping its price to an all-time low of just $35. This limited-time offer presents a compelling opportunity to acquire a comprehensive package of a remastered classic.

Released earlier this year, this enhanced version typically carries a price tag closer to $50 (its original MSRP was $60). The current $35 price point, observed at major retailers like Amazon and Walmart during recent sales events, makes it particularly attractive, especially considering the physical extras included.

This isn`t merely the game cartridge in a standard case. The `D1 Refined Edition` comes in a larger box housing the game and a collection of five physical collectibles designed to appeal to fans. Inside, you will find:

  • An acrylic keychain
  • A diorama set
  • Four collectible postcards
  • The original soundtrack on CD (a format that still holds charm for collectors)
  • A microfiber cloth

Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana represents a significant evolution of the original Ys III: Wanderers from Ys, first released in 1989. It was completely remade as Ys: The Oath in Felghana for the PSP in 2005, which became the basis for this “D1 Refined Edition.” This latest remaster brings the game to modern platforms with a suite of quality-of-life improvements. Players can utilize a convenient `Turbo mode` to speed up gameplay traversal, enjoy optional new character illustrations, and experience voice acting for the protagonist, Adol Christin, adding a new layer to the narrative. The audio experience is also enhanced, featuring three different remastered versions of the game`s memorable soundtrack.

The narrative follows the perpetually wandering adventurer, Adol Christin, and his long-time friend Dogi as they return to Dogi`s native Felghana after an eight-year absence. They discover the land is now overrun by dangerous monsters and governed by a tyrannical overlord, causing hardship for its residents. While Dogi departs to seek assistance from his former master, Adol remains to aid the locals, quickly becoming entangled in unfolding conspiracies and uncovering ancient legacies tied to the region`s fate.

While other titles in the series, such as Ys X: Nordics Deluxe Edition, have also seen temporary price reductions ($30 for PS5, $35 for Switch at some outlets), the Ys Memoire deal stands out due to the combination of its historical low price point for this edition and the inclusion of substantial physical collectibles. Given the limited nature of such sales and the potential for stock depletion, particularly for desirable physical editions, this is a price worth considering for anyone interested in this classic action RPG modernized for the Nintendo Switch.
