"Captivating"
Faithful to the Falcom spirit, the music unleashes an energetic rock with flamboyant electric guitars that galvanise every fight. Re-orchestrated with brio, the nervy themes embrace the speed of Adol's action with an infectious punch. This supercharged sonic identity remains one of the most beloved in the series.
Gameplay
"Excellent"
Fun
"From the very first minutes"
Addictiveness
"Obsessive"
Carving through monsters at full speed, dodging the attacks of oversized bosses and picking up levels and items sets up an action loop where each cleared zone calls for the next. The fast power growth and memorable bosses chain short goals and rewards. The difficulty bites, but the breakneck pace and the high-octane soundtrack keep a fearsomely stubborn hold.

Collector interest
The Japanese edition of Oath in Felghana, a brisk Falcom action RPG of chiseled level design and a cult soundtrack, the home of a high point of the Ys series. Its appeal lies in this native-version status of a venerated entry and a measured local run, prized by fans wanting the original edition of a beloved Japanese action saga. An import piece for Falcom collectors.
An underrated gem
A remake of a Falcom classic, this adventure throws Adol into real-time battles of exhilarating intensity, carried by a legendary rock soundtrack and a pace without a dull moment. Too obscure outside circles of the initiated, it stays unknown to the mainstream. One of the PSP's best action-RPGs, tailored for thrill-seekers.
Is Ys - Felghana no Chikai still worth playing in 2026?
Ys - The Oath in Felghana, known as Felghana no Chikai in Japan, brings Adol and Dogi back to Felghana under a tyrannical count's grip, in a brisk, demanding Ys. Real-time combat with magic and jumping, formidable bosses and the Falcom Sound Team's rock soundtrack make this remake one of the most accomplished Ys. An absolute series peak.
