of charm and richness.

A good adaptation
Some minor issues related to the refresh rate, but nothing serious.


A long and well-written story.
A well-executed conversion.
More content would have been beneficial.


The new colour tone makes the spectacular Monsturm attacks really stand out
Includes around £20 worth of cosmetic DLCs
The game itself is brilliant and I still agree with my original 9/10 review covering the game itself
The definitive 'console' edition of the game
I would have liked more visual upgrades, such as draw distance, and a 120fps mode
The 30fps cutscenes stand out, they should have been re-made
Although the game looks fantastic, it's not a massive leap over the PS4 version
There's no upgrade path, you have to buy the game again if you wish to 'upgrade'


Monstrum abilities are super fun
Smooth and intuitive combat system
Great cast of characters
Pop ins in a 2023 game
Bland visual palette
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.


Stuffed with rewarding systems
Breezy combat evokes the best of generations past
Quality of life improvements
Lacklustre art direction
Threadbare PS5 support


Ultra-fast loading and very smooth movements.
Captivating story with excellent characters.
Little innovation compared to Ys VIII.
Few innovations in the reissue.
