Dale deemed Valkyria Chronicles 2 a worthy successor to the original after getting some quick hands on time with it at this year's Tokyo Game Show, and he's not alone in thinking so -- I think the game looks great. We thought you'd enjoy this new batch of screens and artwork, including a new trailer, that Andria Sang posted today, so here you go.
I'm especially excited to see some of the new characters in these shots. The game is coming out in January for Japan and during the summer for the US, so if you're really impatient for it and handy with your Japanese reading skills, you could always import it. Are you looking forward to getting your paws on this?
Well my mom has a PS3 so Im gonna get Valkyria Chronicles. I want a PSP for Valkyria Chronicles 2. I hope if Valkyria Chronicles 2 comes to consoles or if VC3 comes to consoles, I hope it will come to 360 as well as PS3.
Ok, is this a prequel, a sequel, or does the story take place around the same time VC1 did? Hoping for the stories to match up ok, but I can already imagine a couple of inconsistencies...
Having watched the anime, its definitely later in the story.
I'm very glad that Sega are building on this series, even after the average PS3 sales of the original. I might possibly import this one in the new year. Once February hits its going to be game overload and I bet I'll forget about it.
Yeah, how about porting the original to 360, Sega? I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Adding boats and aircrfts? That sounds peachy.
I'm in the process of playing VC1 right now and I'm really enjoying it. But I don't own a PSP. I'm kind of annoyed that I can't play a direct sequel to a game that I really like because I don't own the proper system.

Some of the soundtrack reminds me of Final Fantasy Tactics.
VC1 composer = FF12 composer = Final Fantasy Tactics composer = VC2 composer
Anyway, Confirmed: Cordelia is now a badass ruler...or at least looks the part.
