Nihon Falcom publishes Ys IV: The Dawn of Ys FM Sound Collection
Nihon Falcom has published the two-volume soundtrack album "Ys IV: The Dawn of Ys FM Sound Collection." Coinciding with the 38th anniversary of the series' launch, the compilation is streaming on Apple Music, YouTube Music, Spotify, and Amazon Music Unlimited.

Licensed from Nihon Falcom, Hudson Soft's Ys IV: The Dawn of Ys for PC Engine CD launched just over 30 years ago. "Ys IV J.D.K. SPECIAL" FM Sound arrangements are also available via streaming platforms.

"Perfect Collection Ys IV The Dawn of Ys Vol.1~3" arrangements are by Ryo Yonemitsu. The music score served as the basis for Falcom's Ys: Memories of Celceta for PlayStation Vita, launched in September of 2012.

Music for the top-down action role-playing game is by Atsushi Shirakawa, Masaru Nakajima, Naoki Kaneda, and Takahiro Tsunashima of Nihon Falcom JDK Sound Team.
