It may not be the console sequel to Valkyria Chronicles that many asked for, but action role-playing game Valkyria Revolution will arrive on Western shores on 27th June in North America and 30th June in Europe. The game will be available both physically and digitally on the PlayStation 4, while you'll be able to purchase a digital copy only for your Vita.
In the Americas, there'll also be a limited edition Vanargand Edition, which comes with a coat of arms pin, a 12-track soundtrack, and special packaging. The best news is that this won't cost any extra, you'll just need to make sure you put your pre-order in for a launch copy early. Over in Europe, you'll snag the soundtrack for pre-ordering.
Of course, the elephant in the room here is that Japan bounced off this game pretty hard when it released a while back – apparently it's not very good. A shame really, as we're big fans of the original Valkyria Chronicles here at Push Square. Are you willing to look past the criticisms in favour of your favourite series making its console comeback?

Lol the guy on the cover looks like he's cosplaying for Attack On Titan lol.....also no I'm not getting it, the new gameplay are the type of games I'm really not into so I'll be waiting for it when it hits the bargain bin or unless it reviews really well
More than willing to give it a shot - I do like my action games. That said, Japan's reaction was pretty negative, so I'm not getting my hopes up too high.
Gonna pass, tis sad ,loved the other ones.
No ta. I prefer the tactical playstyle of the first games.
As others have said, I'll be giving this one a pass. Looks too actioney for my tastes.
I've also heard the gameplay wasn't too great. It's kinda hard to live up to the first game when it's gameplay was so incredible. But I'll give it a shot because I loved the story of the first one. Hopefully the story in this one will be solid
Unless the audiences' reaction is rooted in objective game-breaking bugs, their disappointment is not my guide or problem. The game's definitely on my radar. I've been interested in the series for a while, and at least the first game is on PS4 (although among big titles, most of my remote play time/money is going into Dishonored for now); the other two are even more accessible (at least VC2... I don't remember if VC3 has been translated). And as a spinoff, Azure Revolution may even motivate me to forego the archive binge order, although it would still be more interesting to watch the evolution of game mechanics here.
Where can i preorder is my answer.
So sega gives Europe a lesser package whats new.
Really not sure about this one.Loved the original but as the combat is drastically different to that I'm still not convinced..probably buy it on a discount.
Not sure about this. I love the original games. I was tempted to get this on vita, but if its digital only, I will probably get on ps4 instead
Ugh. Just make an actual new Valkyria Chronicles game, Sega.
I'll take 7
I love valkyria chronicles, if this is anything like it i will pick it up for sure 😄
So pay $60 for a couple of trinkets or wait for the inevitable discount?
@Mahe It's by a different developer but published by SEGA.
