Valkryia Chronicles sequel is not a sequel. It is just part of the Valkyria line, but in its own world.


You mean like every Final Fantasy, Disgaea, DQ, etc sequel ?

I think it still qualifies as a sequel.

Great line up, hopefully the rest of the world can enjoy it in 2016 too.

This game’s connection to Valkyria Chronicles…

Ozawa: “This time, we switched to an RPG. The concept of the battle system and the sensation of the battlefield are the same, but because it’s an RPG with simulation elements, you can experience the battlefield through a different perspective.”

Regarding the world…

Ozawa: “It’s completely different (from Valkyria Chronicles). This time, the key item known as Ragnite is not just used as an energy resource, but also has magical aspects. Valkyria are supernatural compared to humans, beings considered close to gods.”

Shimosato: “I want them to become known as the Senjou series and Kakumei series.” (Note: This means the “Battlefield” series and “Revolution” series. In Japan, Valkyria Chronicles is called “Senjou no Valkyria,” or “Valkyria of the Battlefield,” while this new title is called “Aoki Kakumei no Valkyria,” or “Valkyria of the Azure Revolution.”

A message for fans…

Ozawa: “There are parts similar to Valkyria Chronicles, but because it’s largely different on the surface in a good way, we want you to enjoy this game with flat eyes as a new series.”

It's just PR stuff. It's a sequel, just not a direct sequel, like every other great series that try to reinvent themselves instead of just giving us a random plot which has for only quality to justify a sequel and the same gameplay with minor twists.

Mmm...but FF X-2 is a direct sequel to FF X, and that game kinda reinvented itself.

FFX-2 is like Nicolas Cage. It's sometimes good, sometimes bad, often both, and the only think that's aways sure is that you can't categorize it =p

Here's a list of PS4 titles in 2016 in Japan. Notice the vast majority are guaranteed to sell over 100,000 copies, with a couple surpassing the million and some hovering the 500,000 mark. I think this might be the best year for a PlayStation home console since PS2.

I'm going to conveniently interpret this PR stuff into my favor, and I hope I won't be disappointed with this game because I wanted to think of it as a sequel to a game Sega could have just come out with instead.

I respect your opinion and wish you the best.
