VALKYRIA CHRONICLES™ ANNOUNCES ITSELF FOR PC DIGITAL DOWNLOAD, SEGA FOLLOW UP WITH PRE-ORDER DETAILS

In the words of series’ favorite, Aika Thompson, “we’re just getting warmed up!” If you saw the news on twitter on Monday night, which saw ‘Valkyria Chronicles™’ trending worldwide, you’ll know that some eagle-eyed reporters spotted Valkyria Chronicles listed for PC on PEGI’s website. Well, we were going to tell you all about it tomorrow, but we have all the details for pre-ordering and content available at launch right here, right now.

In Valkyria Chronicles, for those who don’t know, players embark on an epic adventure through beautiful environments and battle legions of troops to save the small country of Gallia from total destruction. Valkyria Chronicles is set in a fictitious continent reminiscent of 1930s Europe on the verge of a great war. The game follows Welkin and his fellow soldiers of the Federation’s 7th Platoon that are fighting against the Empire, who is intent on unifying the continent under its power. The emergence of the “Valkyria”- an ancient race with special powers thought to exist only in legends, turns the tide of the war and the Federation’s ability to win and a hope for a better future hangs in the balance.

This Strategy RPG was a critical success, garnering a whopping 86% on Metacritic and even earned a Guinness World Record in 2010 for being the best Strategy RPG on PS3. Valkyria Chronicles will launch for Windows PC via Digital Download on November 11, 2014 and will come bundled with all the DLC that was available for the original PlayStation 3 game including:

· Hard EX Mode (harder versions of skirmish missions in the main game)
· Edy’s Mission “Enter the Edy Detachment” (a side story campaign)
· Selveria’s Mission “Behind Her Blue Flame” (a side story campaign)
· Challenge of the Edy Detachment (six challenge missions)

So you can pre-order now and pick up this award winning, critically acclaimed strategy RPG that’s so good it announced itself, for £14.99/€19.99/$19.99 from selected digital retail partners.

I've been meaning to pick this up for PS3, but this is even better :O

This is pretty awesome, i freaking loved this game really made me tear up near the climax and was a rollercoaster emotional ride. Gameplay was fantastic. I really hope this means they'l be dropping the psp titles on PC as well.

Pre-ordered first day, and counting the hours until launch.

Sweet, now I have next to no reason to ever buy a PS3. VC 2 for the PSP was pretty damned great as a game, but the story was kind of shit and the characters were a mixed bag. The "military academy" brand of high-school "comedy" really ruined the mood.

Shame we'll never see a (legal) localized VC3 over stateside.

I have yet to beat VC2, too many extra missions on each chapter... I liked how all soliers had a saying in the story thou, in the first game, with the exception of the Edy DLCs, they are non existent outside of the combat field (enough to become a fan of some of them). In VC3 I lost my save updating the emulator... need to start again.

Looks like it's a rather solid port.
