Valkyria: Azure Revolution is coming to North America via Sega and Europe via Deep Silver as Valkyria Revolution in Q2 2017, Sega announced. It will be released physically and digitally for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and digitally for PS Vita.

Described as a “revolution” from the traditional Valkryia Chronicles universe, Valkyria Revolution is set in an alternate timeline based on the European industrialization era and moves away from the traditional turn-based strategy gameplay of the series for a new hybrid of real-time combat and tactical strategy.

Xbox huh

and no PC (yet)

this is weird

 

[RPGamer92]

Wow at an Xbox version.

 

[Thickstone]

Vita?! Holy shit

 

[FelipeMGM]

No PC is weird

 

[goldenpp72]

Shocked it's on Xbox.

 

[Shizuka]

Vita, I'm so happy. The only way it could be better is if it had a Vita physical print as well.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Nice Xbox.. Probably get announced for Switch too I bet on the 12th

 

[sense]

That...... was unexpected. Xbox one version will probably sell way less than the digital vita version

 

[RawNuts]

In for the Xbox version, fuck yes!

 

[koutoru]

No PC version, huh.

[Grim Patron]

Nice. Will get xbox one version to support as well. Based Sega. Ps4 and xbox physical will be bought for sure.

 

[Hexa]

Xbox but no Day 1 PC? The fuck is SEGA doing? I mean I'm planning on getting it on PS4 anyway, but I also want it to sell well.

 

[YianGaruga]

Did this game improve from the first demo? Because that was garbage, to be frank

 

[Shizuka]

Nice Xbox.. Probably get announced for Switch too I bet on the 12th

Because everything is being ported to the Switch.

 

[antibolo]

In the West? I would find that very hard to believe.

 

[Intel_89]

Cool, but I found the demo pretty eh.

[Moofers]

LIMITED RUN GAMES I CHOOSE YOU!

Maybe they can pull off a Vita physical release

 

[grizzelye]

Hoping it was turn based. Xbox version for me!

 

[Crimson_Gold]

Well done, Sega. I'll get a vita and a PS4 copy. I hope they make a bundle. They won't make a bundle

 

[ATXAlchemy]

Vita?! Holy shit

Have we ever seen anything of that version? I assume it will be handled by another company and not Media.Vision.

I tried to avoid spoilers but I don't think we have. And that supposedly releases next month along with the PS4 version.

 

[YianGaruga]

Because everything is being ported to the Switch.

Nintendo is known for their stellar third party support, so obviously

 

[flkraven]

I'll jump in on the Xbox version.

 

[Castef]

Mmmmh... no PC? Weird...

 

[Hellraider]

No PC is weird

There will definitely be a later PC release of this. They just want people to double dip.

 

[Saphirax]

Did this game improve from the first demo? Because that was garbage, to be frank

Yep, they've been improving it. There's also a second, and a third(?) demo. They've been taking a lot of feedback, so hopefully it ends up being good.

 

[Intel_89]

Cool, but I found the demo pretty eh.

 

[Greatest Ever]

Wonder if the Vita port is being handled internally.

 

[Kresnik258]

Vita omg. Omg omg! Fantastic news after the crappy Dragon Quest news.

No physical is a bummer but honestly, I'll take it with open arms.

 

[Bog]

Great, so when no one buys the weird spinoff they'll think the series doesn't sell and kill it completely.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Because everything is being ported to the Switch.

Nintendo is known for their stellar third party support, so obviously

I cant just say that without being scrutinized? jesus guess i'll bequiet then.

 

[purseowner]

So that's the upcoming SEGA Vita physical.

So happy.

And holy shit at an Xbox One version.

Nice Xbox.. Probably get announced for Switch too I bet on the 12th

Oh Goddamn I'm gonna end up double dipping, aren't I?

 

[Nyoro SF]

That was quick. Looks like concurrent localization was prioritized for this title. Did they say anything about dual audio?

 

[CorporateClown]

It's nice that Xbox is getting jrpgs and all, but there's no way in hell they recoup their porting costs here., no matter how low they are.

 

[Jarmel]

Vita means life.

 

[ambar_hitman]

Wow another awesome RPG moving away from Turn Based Combat? I am loving this.
First time played FF game in FFXV due to real time combat and l am in love with the game. More the merrier.

 

[The Artisan]

whoa, xbone? does this mean yakuza 6 could be on xbone too?

 

[ULTROS!]

Is this the 3rd JRPG to come out for Xbox One like since forever?

 

[Pachael]

Good to hear it being localised - hoping the story and gameplay turns out good considering previous feedback.

Still expecting a PC version, but like XV that would probably only happen months/years down the line.

Not sure I like the fact that they seem to imply the loss of turn based is a good thing.

Xbox is legit surprising.

 

[ezodagrom]

That Atlus influence I guess?
Joking aside, since the European version is coming out through Deep Silver, this announcement is from SEGA America, if a PC version were to happen, the announcement would be from SEGA Europe I guess.

 

[DrunkShogun]

I welcome the fact it's q2. Need to finish off Valkyrie chronicle remastered which I left early on for whatever reason.

 

[I'm Spartacus]

I watched a video of this game in action fairly recently (TGS footage?) and while it might be a good game in its own right, it really didn't look like the Valkyria game the fans have been clamouring for.

 

[hosannainexcelsis]

Did this game improve from the first demo? Because that was garbage, to be frank

I haven't paid very close attention, but I know Sega has completely revamped the combat system since that first demo. The development team seems to be paying as close attention to consumer feedback as the FF XV team did/is.

 

[YianGaruga]

In the West? I would find that very hard to believe.

Xbox isn't selling all that great outside of the US and most people who play Japanese games are on Playstation. It wouldn't be that shocking tbh

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

An Xbox version?!?!?!? Weird since this franchise was always a Playstation exclusive but hey whatever I'm not complaining.
