"Captivating"
Faithful to the Falcom spirit, the music unleashes an energetic rock with flamboyant electric guitars that galvanise every fight. 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"
Charging, dodging and carving through hordes of foes at a frantic pace and exploring a map that unveils itself bit by bit sets up a loop of action and discovery that calls for the next corner. Mapping the forest and beefing up your team reward each outing. The story stays conventional, but the edge of the combat and the joy of exploration grip you without let-up.
Complete: box, manual and disc/cart very clean. Lightly handled.

Collector interest
An action RPG from Falcom, Ys Memories of Celceta relaunches Adol's adventures in a vast forest with its fast combat and driving music, released in the United States in a limited Vita run. The format's scarcity and the action-RPG niche's loyalty make it a sought piece. Its interest lies in this recognized dynamism as much as in this reduced distribution.
Memorable bosses
From Falcom, this lightning-fast adventure has you juggle characters and exploit a flash guard and flash move against swift guardians. The bosses, from colossal beasts to ancient automatons, demand sharp reflexes and quick reading. Carried by a rousing soundtrack, these brisk duels embody to perfection the craft of snappy action-RPG.
Is Ys - Memories of Celceta still worth playing in 2026?
