*LOUD SIREN NOISE* This is not a drill! Our intelligence indicates that Valkyria Chronicles Remastered will launch in the Americas and Europe on May 17th, 2016 for the PS4. Soon, you’ll be able to relive Squad 7’s valiant fight against The Empire in full 1080p/60fps HD quality. And there’s more. The game also apparently includes all of the original DLC, dual Japanese and English audio, and trophy support (to get that Valkyria platinum trophy, of course). Moreover, pre-orders and limited launch copies in the Americas will come protected in a collectible metal Squad 7 Armored Case.
If you are a fan, you know that it’s been a while since Valkyria Chronicles came out. So, the developers have created a trailer that highlights the fundamentals of warfare in Valkyria Chronicles Remastered. The unique “BLiTZ” Tactical Battle System combines turn-based strategy, RPG, and 3rd person shooter elements to make engagements both strategic and exciting, one of the reasons the original game is considered a classic.
Plan moves and organize units on the battlefield in Command Mode. Exercise your trigger finger in Action Mode. Manage troop classes and upgrades to ensure victory against the Empire. Just watch out for those enemy aces. Whether you’re a hardened veteran of the Second Europan War or a fresh new recruit, the devs are betting you’ll find lots to love in the new remaster.
Valkyria Chronicles Remastered will be priced at $29.99/CA$44.99. For more information, visit valkyria.sega.com.
