In Valkyria Chronicles 4, players return to a continent ravaged by conflict with a familiar-yet-refined tactical role-playing battle system. According to the developers, its vibrant and evocative art style portrays a living canvas of watercolors, and a gripping World War II-inspired story full of momentous triumphs, heartbreaking loss, and unexpected hope for the human spirit. It's unclear when Valkyria Chronicles 4 is going to hit Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4 next year as Sega didn't provide a concrete release date.
For those unfamiliar with the franchise, the story takes place in a fictional continent with its own history. The lands of Europa are engulfed in the flames of the Second Europan War between the Atlantic Federation and the Autocratic Eastern Imperial Alliance. The Federation usually struggles against the Empire's forces that want to subjugate them. When they know they can't win without a bold move, the Federation executes Operation Northern Cross, a final attempt to capture the imperial capital and end the war.
You step into the shoes of Commander Claude Wallace and his childhood friends. The group is sent to fight for the desperate operation's success. It seems that there will be new elements introduced in the franchise as well. Players must endure harsh bone-chilling environments, waves of soldiers, and the terrifying Valkyria. That's not all though. For those of you who are familiar with the franchise, Sega promises that the game unravel a truth that will shake everyone to their core.
