Valkyria Chronicles
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Valkyria Chronicles, known in Japan as Battlefield Valkyria: Gallian Chronicles (.......... -Gallian Chronicles-, Senj. no Varukyuria -Gallian Chronicles-?), is a tactical role-playing game published by Sega, developed by their Sega WOW division exclusively for the PlayStation 3.[4] It was released in Japan on April 24, 2008. A European version was then released on October 31, 2008, followed by a North American version released on November 4, 2008. The success of the game spawned multiple manga titles, a televised anime series, and most recently the development of a sequel, Valkyria Chronicles 2.[5]
The game is set in Europa, a fictional version of Europe, in 1935. Because of its abundance of Ragnite ore, which can be refined into a powerful fuel, the neutral nation of Gallia comes under attack from the East Europan Imperial Alliance, which is itself engaged in a war with the Atlantic Federation.[6] Players take control of a militia squad of Gallian nationals, dedicated to repelling the invasion. The game's visuals, which utilize SEGA's CANVAS graphics engine, resemble a watercolor painting in motion.[7]
The anime, which is a loose adaptation of the game, premiered on April 4, 2009,[51] produced by Aniplex's A-1 Pictures.[4][52] The series is directed by Yasutaka Yamamoto[53][54] and written by Michiko Yokote under the Project Valkyria Group.[54][55] Valkyria Chronicles is being aired on Animax, Tokyo MX, MBS, CBC, Chiba TV,[56] Television Kanagawa, Television Hokkaido, BS11 and TVQ Kyushu Broadcasting.[57]
In August 2009, Funimation Entertainment released a poll to gauge consumer interest in potential DVD releases; one option was an english dub of "Valkyria Chronicles".[58]
