Pre-TGS Valkyria Chronicles news coming soon
The Japanese blog of Valkyria Chronicles has promised there some news on the series will be landing pretty shortly ahead of TGS next month. And that’s it, there are no other clues to go. DLC for Valkyria Chronicles III? Valkyria Chronicles II and III being remastered for PS3 from PSP, like Monster Hunter and God of War? Or is this being underestimated for perhaps Valkyria Chronicles IV? We’ll see soon, by the looks of it.
Thanks, Andriasang.
