One of the big news in the upcoming issue of Weekly Famitsu is the announcement of Senjou no Valkyria 2 Gallia Royal Academy for the PSP (click for full view). Probably inspired by the small Sony’s mistake at last year’s E3, the sequel to the excellent SRPG and Third-Person-Shooter hybrid (called BLiTZ) is set for Japan this fall. This first report focus on the new characters, new system and also an interview with the Producer.
Set two year after the first game, the story still takes place in Gallia but further south, in Randgriz Royal Academy to be exact. Our hero is a probational officer in the academy and when the Gallia’s military failed to stop a civil war, he is forced into action. Not many screens are shown but Canvas, the rendering engine used to created the watercolor look of the first game, is still being used and the developers from the PS3 version is working on the game.
On the game system, BLiTZ and the leveling up system will be enhanced. Tanks will have more uses apparently and it’s custom parts increased. Characters can apply camouflage and it will has crucial impact to the outcome of the battles. As time goes by in the game, the season will change and there will be uniform switch for your characters to reflect this. The “Number of Players” column is left “Undecided”, so expect some multiplayer actions to be announced later.
In the interview, Sega want to show that they are serious about the game with the number 2 attached to the title and apparently there will be more for PSP from the series in future. Valkyria Chronicles is one of the most memorable game for me personally and I can’t believe this actually happens :) School and war will start this fall.
Note: The official website will be launched this Friday.
