For those seeking a robust RPG at a reduced price, the current deal on Tokyo Xanadu eX+ for Switch is worth a look. Available for just $40 at Amazon and Best Buy, this action RPG typically retails for $50. Published by Aksys Games and Falcom, the same team behind the acclaimed Ys and Trails series, Tokyo Xanadu initially debuted as a Japan-exclusive PlayStation Vita game. It later received an enhanced port and localization titled Tokyo Xanadu eX+ on PS4 in 2017, followed by a Switch release earlier this year.

Set in a near-future Tokyo after an earthquake opens a portal to the shadowy Eclipse realm, the game follows high schooler Kou Tokisaka and his classmates as they work to save the city. The Switch version, being the latest iteration, includes improved visuals, new story content, and several gameplay enhancements. Additionally, the PS4 version is available for $20 at GameStop or $24 at Amazon.

For fans of Falcom's work, PC discounts on the popular Trails and Ys games are available at Fanatical. The Trails series, also known as the Legend of Heroes, comprises smaller sub-series like Trails of Cold Steel, Trails from Zero, and Trails into Reverie, all contributing to a larger narrative set in the fantasy world of Zemuria. With significant price cuts on several titles, including the recent Trails Through Daybreak, now $48 (normally $60), it's an opportune time to dive into this expansive saga.

Recent Ys games are also on sale, such as Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana for $14 (was $40), where protagonist Adol is shipwrecked on a mysterious island. Its sequel, Ys IX: Mostrum Nox, is down to $30 (was $60), following Adol on a new quest against shadowy forces. The latest entry, Ys X: Nordics, is available for $60.

While Fanatical's sale focuses on digital PC versions, physical editions often include extras like collectibles, art prints, and soundtrack CDs. Deluxe editions of Ys and Legend of Heroes games are still available, including the upcoming remake Ys Memoire: The Oath of Felghana, set for January 2025, and The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak II in February 2025.
