Ys I&II Chronicles is a hard sell for Falcom, considering that Interchannel already released remakes for the two games just last year in Japan (and the originals were posted on Virtual Console recently, too), but this trailer for the PSP game does a lot to pick up interest from the ARPG series' fans.

Along with its rock-out arrangement of Falcom JDK Band's "To Make The End Of Battle", the video shows off the remake's new character art, and reminds us of how great the PC edition (which the PSP games are based on) looked, especially compared to the unimpressive 3D graphics in the DS remakes. I love the preorder treasure bit at the end, too!

Ys I&II Chronicles ships in Japan on July 16th. No plans for a U.S. release have been announced.
