The Ys logo

Ys (イース, Īsu, [iːsɯ]) /iːs/ is a Japanese role-playing video game series, and Nihon Falcom corporation's flagship franchise.[1] The series started on the PC-8801 in 1987. The games take place in a fictional world with some geographical resemblance to Earth, and chronicle the adventures of Adol Christin, a red-haired swordsman, and his companions. Two separate OVA anime series of Ys have also been released, as well as many soundtracks featuring the game's music.
