Sega har nu bytt namn på Valkyria: Azure Revolution till mer behändiga Valkyria Revolution och i en färsk pressrelease säger de att spelet ska släppas både digitalt och fysiskt till Playstation 4 och Xbox One under andra kvartalet 2017. Där kan vi även läsa:
"Valkyria Revolution is also in a sense a revolution from the traditional Valkyria Chronicles universe, as it's set in an alternate timeline based on the European industrialization era and eschews the traditional turn-based strategy gameplay for a new hybrid of real-time combat and tactical strategy across battlefields."
Pressreleasen förklarar vad spelet handlar om:
"In the story of Valkyria Revolution, players will experience that firsthand. Five lifelong friends consumed by personal revenge plunge an entire continent into a terrible war, sacrificing the lives of countless innocents for a cause based on twisted half-truths and outright lies. This "Circle of Five" use their combined influence in their political and military positions to motivate their small, economically blockaded homeland to rise up and become a powerful resistance against its imperialist oppressors. Will the Circle of Five be remembered as heroic liberators, or will their selfish motives expose them as traitorous conspirators who sacrificed untold lives just to carry out a personal vendetta? Players will watch this history unfold in Valkyria Revolution and find out the truth behind the events."
Valkyria Revolution utlovar både nya karaktärer och en ny spelvärld samt omgjord spelmekanik. Det turbaserade slagfältet är nämligen nu utbytt mot en mer actionbetonad. Mer information hittar du på spelets officiella hemsida. Gör namnbytet någon skillnad för din egen del?
