- Graphics Quality Improvements - Arbitrary main rendering resolution, better anti-aliasing, higher-quality post-processing effects, and a high-end super-sampling option
- Better Framerates - Greater gameplay smoothness with more accurate timing and animation sync at all framerates, improved frame-pacing, and high refresh rate support
- High-Quality Shadows - Complete shadowing revamp featuring improved standard shadow filtering without performance loss; new, higher quality filter options; resolution options; and even additional shadow casters
- More Depth in Environments - Implemented HBAO+ ambient occlusion as an alternative higher-quality SSAO option, providing more depth and plasticity to all scenes
- Improved Draw Distance - Added a draw distance setting which applies to grass/clutter, monsters, and NPCs, completely eliminating pop-in on the highest settings

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27857946/749f99f0dc272115a837cec4581cbb57981a73c8.png
- Mouse Control Redone - Improved camera mouse controls, replacing joystick emulation with direct 1:1 control
- Individual Key Bindings - Movement keys are now individually bindable, and added a keybinding for walking (slow movement) with keyboard/mouse controls
- Natural Control - Changed default bindings to fit common usage by PC gamers
STABILITY & PERFORMANCE
- Now 64-bit - Switched to 64-bit build to address space fragmentation issues in long sessions
- Save VRAM - Fixed multiple video memory leaks
- Crash Fix - Fixed potential crash when switching between languages
- More Crash Fix - Improved render thread synchronization to prevent specific types of race condition crashes
- Faster I/O - Removed superfluous asset encryption
- Optimized Shadows - Improved shadow rendering performance by preventing unnecessary memory traffic
MISCELLANEOUS
- 100% Achievement on KB/M Control - Fixed the unlocking of some achievements when playing with keyboard/mouse controls
- Typo Fixes - Fixed several typos and dialogue/text issues throughout the game
- Cloud Save Data - Fixed slightly-too-low cloud save limit when using a very large number of saves
NEW CO-OP MODE
- 2-Player local co-op mode has been added
About co-op mode:
- Need to supply two Xinput controllers
- You must have 2 or more characters in the party in order for the second player to join the game
- SP is shared
- Second player does not receive the “AI cheats” (i.e. AI-controlled characters only take half damage, whereas second player in co-op mode will take the full amount of damage)
- Not officially supported and limited support will be available for troubleshooting
To enable co-op mode:
- Open Steam libraries through the Steam client.
- Right-click on Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of DANA, and click “Properties”
- Click “Set Launch Options”
- Input “--coop” into the parameter and click “OK.”
- Launch the game
- Press “Start” on the second controller to enable second player
