SEGA is readying Squad 7 for a western release, with today’s new trailer for Valkyria Chronicles Remastered confirming that the overhaul will be available for PlayStation 4 across North America and Europe in spring 2016.
Priced at $29.99 (no word yet on European and UK pricing), the publisher also released details for the limited edition version of the game, including a stylized steelbook along with a series of in-game extras.
As for the features making their into all versions of Valkyria Chronicles Remastered, SEGA provided a play-by-play breakdown of what fans can expect.
HD Canvas Graphics Engine – The stunning, painterly graphics return, but this time in 1080p/60fps high definition quality! Battles and cutscenes are conveyed like a vibrant tapestry in motion.
Blitz tactical battle system – Part overhead turn-based strategy, part RPG, and part real-time 3rd person shooter, the Blitz system is an innovative mechanic that makes battles simultaneously strategic and action-packed. Players will command and control their soldiers and tanks as they take on the Empire in 30 different battlefronts.
Memorable storyline – Set against the backdrop of a world war, Gunther, Alicia, Largo and the rest of the fierce members of Squad 7 fight for personal reasons in the name of freedom, and the hope against all odds of liberating Gallia from Empire control, all in the face of the terrible realities of war.
DLC Included – Besides the core game, Valkyria Chronicles Remastered includes all previously released DLC: Hard EX Mode, Edy’s Mission, Selvaria’s Mission, and Challenge of the Edy Detachment.
Valkyria Chronicles Remastered is on course to hit PlayStation 4 in only a few months’ time. For now, you can check out the limited edition version of the HD overhaul down below.
