Valkyria Chronicles coming to PC?
« on: October 27, 2014, 01:56:15 pm »
Hey guys I found this cool website that had this tip:
http://segabits.com/blog/2014/10/27/is-segas-valkyria-chronicles-heading-to-pc-a-recent-pegi-rating-says-it-is/


So yeah, whaddya think? Is Sega doing something right? Or is it going to be a port of the new Valkyria Chronicles mobile phone free to play game where you dress selvaria in increasingly risque outfits?


Will there be more games to come? Or will this be a curious one-off that Sega does and then promptly forgets about. Like Jet Set Radio.

Everyone here will buy it.

And then we can get Valkyria Chronicles 4, developed by The Creative Assembly as a PC exclusive.

According to PEGI, it is:




Yo, you found the same website? I heard the forum is cool.

But yeah, I'm still not 100% convinced, this isn't the first time something's shown up on rating's boards and not released right? Also it could be some tricky dickery by Sega, like it's actually a visual novel or a Browser game or something.

But yeah, I really would buy the game all over again, it was quite excellent. I just want to see more of this behaviour. Did Sega acquire any teams that are good at porting stuff recently? Could it be the mob that did the excellent JSR release?

Hardlight and Blit come in question.

Haha I didn't see MadeManG's first post, thought Barry started this thread.

Actually that wasn't a one off. People forget (And I guess that's part of the problem!) that SEGA also released Sonic Adventure 2 and NiGHTS Into Dreams soon after but I think the dismal sales of the latter game just put SEGA off the idea.

Also I don't think SEGA would apply to PEGI without having plans to release the game. It costs money for PEGI verification (I think something around £10,000.) and I don't think we should think it's going to be the browser game considering SEGA Europe is behind this who from memory hasn't got a browser based game on release yet.

So get hyped.

All I can say is I've heard things over the past year, and it looks like it's finally happening. ;)

The only thing i know is that if this port doesnt sell what SEGA expect then say good bye to a possible VC3 release (Or port).

The born of a new "Mike Hayes" era? We will expect for that. We need to support this. Good things never last so long.

Could there be extra content that the PS3 version didn't have, or should I just try to find a copy if I don't have a good enough PC?
