Falcom has announced Ys IX: Monstrum Nox for the PlayStation 4. It will launch in Japan in 2019. No announcement has been made for a release in the west. 

Here is an overview of the game via Gematsu:

Ys IX: Monstrum Nox takes place in Baldeux, which is northeast of Esterior in the Gllia Eldlingen region. Set in a huge city known as “Prison City,” a new adventure surrounding the mysteries hidden in the city will unfold alongside people called “Monstrum” who possess supernatural abilities.

Ys series trademarks such as speedy action (diverse skill attacks, free dashes, and jumps) and battles against giant bosses will return alongside numerous new elements connected to Ys IX‘s setting, including the use of “Supernatural Actions” of Monstrum to freely explore all areas of the field, “Guild Operations” in Prison City, and more.

Really? No Switch version? Either a late release for the double-dippers or they're leaving money on the table. Either way, stupid.

I'm sure it'll come eventually but there's still no excuse for them not to release it with the PS4 version. Lame!

They've also left out PC, despite having either badly ported them over to the platform or late releases. Either way they are leaving double the money on the table for choosing only one system.

Yall motherfuckers better release this on Switch. You can't tease me with Ys VIII and then not give me YS IX.
