Some pretty good news. The Japanese voiceover will be included, and we got a release date:

Sega sent over a friendly reminder that Valkyria Chronicles has an official release date. We’ll get a chance to pick up in English on November 11. I spoke with Christopher Kaminski, Associate Producer of Valkyria Chronicles, to find out if the downloadble content recently released in Japan would find its way to North America. He replied with, “No comment yet.” Kaminski confirmed the content will not be on the retail disc though when he answered my follow up question with, “No, that content won’t be on the disc.” Valkyria Chronicles won’t have any localization differences either. “We translated it directly. We wanted to stay true to the original. As a matter of fact we keep the original Japanese in there.”

You know, there are a lot of games where as you see more footage, the game begins to look worse than you imagined. Valkyria Chronicles seems to just keep looking better and better though.

Agreed. Every more bit they show gets me more and more interested.

I still think this game has chance to pass Fire Emblem in Japan. It's at 141k and still selling well over 1k a week for 8 weeks now.

How does everyone think this game will do in America?

Better than Operation Darkness, Culdcept Saga, or Spectral Force 3?

This is so awesome.

Now, I'll just have to wait for the Europe release date and content.

I have high hopes anyway, as Sega did exactly what I wanted with Sonic and the Secret Rings.

I will support the european release only if it has the original japanese voices and french support (either dubbed or subbed or both, I don't care), even when it will be more expensive.

As for the release date, that won't affect me a lot (except if it's in 2009 for Europe), as I have lots of games to finish, and FE Wii is one of them, before I buy this one.

really cool :)

Here's a new trailer from the Leipzig Game Convention. Looks pretty amazing.
