For a very long time, the Ys series only featured a single playable character, the red-haired adventurer Adol Christin. Since the release of Ys SEVEN, however, Adol has stopped being the only playable character, as many other companions join him in his adventures to discover the mysteries of the world.
Ys IX: Monstrum Nox features the same party system featured in previous entries in the series like Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana, with each character coming with different abilities that set themselves apart from one another. But how many characters does Ys IX Monstrum Nox exactly feature? Let us find out.
How Many Characters are in Ys IX Monstrum Nox?
Ys IX: Monstrum Nox features six different playable characters, Adol plus five other companions that join him during the course of the adventure. They are collectively known as Monstrum, and their unique Gifts seem to be tied to some mysterious happenings that are shaping the modern history of the city of Balduq and its surroundings.
The playable characters in Ys IX Monstrum Nox are Adol Christin, AKA the Crimson King, White Cat, Hawk, Doll, Raging Bull, and Renegade.
