Screens for Valkyrie Profile you don't have to squint at


Famitsu has a small piece up on Square Enix's upcoming DS entry in their Valkyrie Profile series, providing us with some screens, as well as a small taste of the brilliant cutscenes that often get sprinkled liberally throughout the RPG kingpin's titles. And while we'd like to report on more of the game, we just cannot. We're not even sure when this is going to release in Japan right now.

Head on over to Famitsu to check out the screens (now with 100% less blur!).

See the story behind Valkyrie of the Battlefield

If we were fluent in Japanese, this new Valkyrie of the Battlefield video would probably make a lot more sense. As it stands, we're left with looking at the game's gorgeous visuals and making lame attempts at trying to understand what's going on.

Going on just what we can see in the video, it appears that the East Europe Empire Union and the Atlantic Ocean Federal Organization are fighting over rights to mine a mineral called Ragnite. Caught in between is Gallian, a country to the west of the East European empire and possibly the source of Ragnite. It looks as if it will be up to you and your "rag tag" group of countrymen to overthrow the invaders and bring the land back to peace.

Valkyrie of the Battlefield has best collector's edition ever


Why wait? Order the Valkyrie of the Battlefield collector's edition right now! If you call in the next five minutes, we'll throw in a FREE TANK!!! But wait ... THERE'S MORE!

Not only will you get a copy of the PS3 exclusive strategy game AND A TANK, you'll also get A FIGURINE of the main character, Alicia. That's not enough?! THERE'S STILL MORE! In this special limited time offer, you'll also get a FREE GUIDE BOOK! All this for a low, low price of 9980 yen!

Seriously, the goodies that Sega has come up with for this game's special edition puts other collector's bundles to shame. Each premium looks exactly that -- premium. Unfortunately, there's no US release scheduled yet, but the Japanese will get their hands on this primo set at the end of April.

Valkyrie of the Battlefield still looking amazing

If you haven't realized it already, we're pretty big fans of Sega's upcoming strategy game Valkyrie of the Battlefield. In the newest video that's been released, it appears to show pieces of the game's opening cinematics and other gameplay footage that shows the game's unique twist on the strategy genre. While there's been no confirmation that the title will head to the West, it just looks so damn beautiful that we're continuing to hold out hope.

Valkyrie is developed by Sega's Overworks studio, the same guys who brought us Shinobi, Streets of Rage, Phantasy Star, The House of the Dead and Skies of Arcadia. With such a legendary list of games up its sleeve, we just can't help but be entirely confident that its newest title will have awesomeness in spades.
