In an e-mail to Atlus Faithful today, Atlus Co. has announced that Legacy of Ys: Books I & II, for Nintendo DS, pre-orders at participating retailers will now come with a bonus Soundtrack CD. This soundtrack CD will cover music from both Books I & II, but Atlus has not specified the length of the tracklist yet.
Atlus had this to say about the soundtrack:
Epic in melody and arrangement, the Ys Books I & II soundtrack
has long been considered one of the greatest video same scores ever created. As
relevant today as ever, the freshly arranged music CD still manages the same
level of excitement and energy, and stand as a testament to true excellence in
game music.

This will surely please J-RPG fans, who always enjoy a nice pre-order pack in, and Atlus continues to deliver. This CD will be a limited edition run, and can be secured by pre-ordering at Amazon.com or Gamestop. The official release date for the game is currently slated for February 10th 2009.
