The Ys X: Nordics DLC included in the base release of Ys X: Proud Nordics (for free) is as follows:

Players familiar with recent PC releases of PH3 will find this version very comfortable. For newcomers, Ys X: Proud Nordics on PC offers several improvements over the console versions. These include enhanced visuals with HDR support, customizable controls (including mouse and keyboard), and various display options like ultrawide and 16:10 support. You’ll also find quality-of-life features like adjustable autosave intervals, the ability to skip logos for faster loading, direct save loading from Steam, independent movie volume control, customizable button prompts, gamepad deadzone settings, and an asset caching feature.

Okay, so before I get into what’s different in the Western release, let me quickly talk about how much better Ys X: Nordics looked and played compared to previous games. It was clearly made with the Switch in mind from the start, unlike some of the older ports – those felt like they were trying to run on more powerful consoles. Honestly, after the Ys VIII and IX ports which weren’t great visually, Nordics was a huge step up and the best-looking, smoothest-running modern Ys game on the Switch. It aimed for 30 frames per second, and while it wasn’t super sharp, it was a solid experience whether you were playing on your TV or in handheld mode.

Everyone’s excited about a new scope, from regular players to pros like Zlaner, and for good reason! The 10x zoom scope isn’t just another add-on – it completely changes how you handle long-distance combat. If you’ve ever wanted both binoculars for spotting and a powerful sniper scope, this is it. It lets you scout and snipe seamlessly in one go.

One of the side quests involves collecting seven golden balls scattered around Kamurocho. Longtime fans of the series will remember this as a callback to a similar quest in Like a Dragon Gaiden. You need to find all seven and return them to Shen, who will then grant you a wish – it’s a classic trope, you probably know it!

Become (yes, that is the game’s real name) is an indie title that sets players on a quest through the human reproductive system as they compete with millions of other sperm for a chance to push new life into the world.

McDonald’s is a familiar place – you generally know what to expect on the menu. Like other fast food chains, they occasionally introduce special, limited-time items to keep things interesting.

These rackets let players use special abilities when their energy meter is full. These abilities can deliver incredibly strong shots, create hazards for opponents on the court, or give you a big edge during a match.
