The game includes cameos from many Sega series, such as characters from Sonic the Hedgehog and Bayonetta. Valkyria Chronicles will be a welcomed addition to the game and hopefully this is an indication of more Valkyria Chronicles news to come.<br />

As you can see at the botton of the pic, Selvaria is now confirmed for Project X Zone. So far we have four Valkyria Chronicles characters confirmed for the game, the three main protagonist of Senjou no Valkyria 3, Imca, Riela and Kurt, and fan favourite, Selvaria.Riela Marcellishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13487871662854120733noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795474699519989382.post-14197926482098444472012-08-29T01:22:00.002+02:002012-08-29T01:22:54.399+02:00Valkyria Chronicles 3: Complete Artworks Preorders AvailableIt seemed highly unlikely given that VC3 was not released outside of Japan, but it looks like UDON will be releasing the Valkyria Chronicles 3: Complete Artworks! <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1926778618/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00" target="_blank">It is now available for preorder on Amazon</a><strong style="font-weight: normal;">.

Now that the user test has been completed, it is time for the game's full service to finally begin. Full browser service will begin on July 26th, with other versions following shortly after. As the official site shows, there will indeed be a Smartphone version of the game. An Android app will be made available on July 30th and an iOS version will be up in early August. <br />

Reports from Famitsu have come in confirming both Imca and an October 11 release date for Project X Zone. With the game also confirmed to feature more than 200 characters hopefully we can expect to see even more VC characters make an appearance. Once images of Imca surface rest assured that they will be uploaded here.<br />

The images aren't very fancy, but they should get the job done. Be sure to read the notes I've posted here between the images as well as the images themselves.<br />
<br />
Start off by going to the <a href="http://valkyria-duel.hangame.co.jp/index.nhn" target="_blank">Valkyria Duel website</a> and click on the big "Game Start" button. For those interested, the banner to the right of it with the Selvaria card says that everyone that participates in this user test of the game will get this card later. So be sure to keep reading and sign up! <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZAmxVTQGzJ4/T-JjcaJWpeI/AAAAAAAAADY/USY5shiutKw/s1600/1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZAmxVTQGzJ4/T-JjcaJWpeI/AAAAAAAAADY/USY5shiutKw/s320/1.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
After clicking the "Game Start" button you will be redirected to the Hangame website to sign in. To create a Hangame account, click the big orange button as indicated on the picture below. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ffichyZ6Do8/T-JjebQDxqI/AAAAAAAAADg/b2StS9D3JCk/s1600/2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ffichyZ6Do8/T-JjebQDxqI/AAAAAAAAADg/b2StS9D3JCk/s320/2.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
After you click that you will be taken to the page below. Follow the directions on the image and continue. I advise against using a yahoo email address to register though. I attempted to use a yahoo email address first and never received the activation email. I requested a second one and still never got it, not even in the spam folder. With my gmail address I received the email instantly, so I suggest using that. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-M20ehp2DKzY/T-Jje_rnFwI/AAAAAAAAADo/Lalu_eXDwBk/s1600/3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-M20ehp2DKzY/T-Jje_rnFwI/AAAAAAAAADo/Lalu_eXDwBk/s320/3.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Click the first link in the activation email and you will be taken to the image below. Fill in your information as I have instructed in the image. In case you care to do this, in the "Location" tab, the last choice indicates that you are outside of Japan. So feel free to pick that one if you want to give Hangame that information, or just pick any of the options.<br />
<br />
The avatar style that you choose is for your Hangame avatar, it has no impact on Valkyria Duel. So pick whichever one you like better and then click the indicated button below. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s2JSRBU--MU/T-Jjf7LvvNI/AAAAAAAAADw/NWztXD01Vv8/s1600/4.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s2JSRBU--MU/T-Jjf7LvvNI/AAAAAAAAADw/NWztXD01Vv8/s320/4.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
This next step is probably the most daunting one for those of you that do not know Japanese. As with most sites, you have to fill in a captcha to complete registration. But this captcha will be in Japanese and is actually the only point during registration that you need to type in Japanese for. Fear not though, I have a method for you to be able to complete this step without needing to configure your computer to be able to type in Japanese.<br />
<br />
All you will need to do is look at the characters in the captcha, find what they refer to on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Table_hiragana.svg" target="_blank">this chart</a> or<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Table_katakana.svg" target="_blank"> this chart</a>, and type that into <a href="http://www.whiteagle.net/" target="_blank">this website</a>. That website will convert the letters you type into the corresponding Japanese kana. I can't say for sure, but I think the captcha may only use hiragana, so you may only need to look at that first chart. After the website converts your text into Japanese, copy and paste the characters into the captcha box as indicated in the image below and click the marked button to submit it. <br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
Congratulations, you just completed creating your Hangam account! You can close that window and now return to the Valkyria Duel website. Now when you click the "Game Start" button another window will pop up and it will start downloading the data for the game. If you think the download is going very slowly or has stopped completely, close the window and hit "Game Start" again to continue where your download left off. I had to do this several times to complete downloading it, so it is not unusual for the download to stop or go slowly. <br />
<br />
After the game finishes downloading click on the screen to proceed to the image below and follow the directions I put on the image.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EELNfmc20oA/T-JjiPlnZ_I/AAAAAAAAAEA/byGKoDVLMkc/s1600/6.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EELNfmc20oA/T-JjiPlnZ_I/AAAAAAAAAEA/byGKoDVLMkc/s320/6.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Put your desired username in the box. It does not have to be the same as your Hangame one. <br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Swm4xkeigV8/T-JjjooCCJI/AAAAAAAAAEI/YWdZOYsToLs/s1600/7.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="125" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Swm4xkeigV8/T-JjjooCCJI/AAAAAAAAAEI/YWdZOYsToLs/s320/7.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
This next part is very important. This is where you select which Alliance you want to join, West or East. One of the main components of the game is an ongoing battle over territory, so if you are getting your friends to sign up you probably want to be on the same side as them. I chose the West Alliance and I think it would be pretty cool if a lot of us from the blog could be on the same side and work together. Since this game does not have a story, really the only difference between the two sides is color; West is blue and East is red. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rI_RT7uSMVk/T-Jjk5kkCOI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/rqR1el9LF1E/s1600/8.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="126" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rI_RT7uSMVk/T-Jjk5kkCOI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/rqR1el9LF1E/s320/8.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
After you choose your side the game will take you to its tutorial. Even if you can't read Japanese, the tutorial does a good job of teaching you the basics as it makes you go through many of the game options rather than just showing you. After you finish the tutorial you're good to go!<br />
<br />
I hope this helps you set up your account and get playing. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Also feel free to post comments discussing the game!<br />

The game is developed by NHN
Japan and SEGA, and starting today till June 25 they will have a "user
test" period, after this period all the user data will be reseted in order
to have everyone at the same level when the game is officially
launched. The website mention Windows, Iphone and Android as platforms
and the website have a section called "Smart Phone", at this point is
unclear if the game will be available for iOS and Android devices
through specific App or maybe they will release some kind of companion
App, but It seems that the game will be playable with your Iphone and
Android device just by going to the website. The test peirod is only
available for PC user that are registered in the "Hangame" service.<br />
<br />
The
genre of Senjou no Valkyria DUEL is "simulation card game" and it look
like your take side with one of the two alliances available and your
mission is to conquer the general headquarters of the enemy, you will
collect new cards, there is some kind of synthesis you can do with your
card to power them up and also the game will show the battles in 3D
(check the trailer). Other notable features are that the game will let
you build your own training ground to train your troops (5 minutes per
day), also note that the game will be free to play with
microtransactions.<br />
<br />
That's all for the moment, There is a
lot of this I have to look before going into more detail, I will keep
you guys informed to the best of my capabilities, if you can read
japanese this is the time to join the blog, contact me.<br />

An extract from Segashiro.com:<br />
<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>I couldn’t help but to ask if Atlus has heard the internet rumble of
fans wishing, hoping that Atlus could somehow pick up Valkyria
Chronicles III and release it in the West. Funny enough, at first the
Atlus representative seemed incredulous as to why SEGA wouldn’t be
releasing a property with so much recognition and critical praise.</i><br />
<i>He said he hadn’t seen too many people asking for the title on their
forums unlike Grand Knights History. I replied that SEGA’s forums
certainly had fans calling for the title and he shrugged and said he’d
take a look. Lastly, he looked at me and said that it could just be that
SEGA rather not have anyone else make money from their IP other than
themselves. Maybe fans should start hitting up XSEED, ATLUS, and/or NIS
to see if they can’t bargain out something with SEGA of Japan.</i></blockquote>

Hobby Stock is going to release this May a collection of straps based on SEGA's heroines. A box with 10 straps (9 regular straps + one secret) will cost 4,500 yens but many shops will sell a full box with big discounts, like Amiami with a 22% discount. As you can see on the image below, Selvaria is one of the straps in the collection, alongside characters from Phantasy Star, Sonic, Sakura Taisen and other famous SEGA heroines,<br />

The Gallian Liberation Front has uploaded a survey to provide SEGA and other 3rd party publishers with statistics on the Valkyria Chronicles fan base and about our behaviour toward Valkyria Chronicles 1, 2 and 3.<br />
<br />
I think is an interesting survey, specially the part about Valkyria Chronicles 3, even suggesting a possible interest of the fanbase on kickstarter.<br />

Although the response I received was far from a guarantee, it does provide a ray of hope for the fans that would like to see it released in English. UDON is very interested in releasing the VC3 book, but whether or not it will be possible for them to do so is going to depend largely on the sales of the recently released Valkyria Chronicles 2: World Artworks. If sales of the VC2 artbook are much lower than those of the VC1 book then it will be impossible for them to release the VC3 book. <br />
<br />
For fans of the series that are unable to read Japanese, this is the perfect opportunity to learn about VC3's story since the artbooks contain a wealth of story information in addition to the breathtaking VC art that we all know and love. An English release of the VC3 artbook would be a huge step toward reigniting the series' weakening fanbase outside of Japan. If the artbook sold well despite the game not being release outside of Japan, it would send a strong message to Sega that they should continue to support the series worldwide. But in order for us to send that message we need UDON to release the VC3. So if you haven't purchased the VC2 artbook yet, please be sure to do so and to spread the word to everyone else. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Valkyria-Chronicles-2-World-Artworks/dp/1926778383/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1336543860&sr=1-2">Here is a link to it on Amazon</a><br />

Just a reminder, even though VC3 was not released outside of Japan it is possible that UDON will release the artbook if the demand is high enough.

Volks announced in the Hobby Round 7 event that took place on April 08, 2012 that they are going to release a new set of Senjou no Valkyria figures, so far the details are few, basically the images told the the whole story. Some sources think that this will be a 8 figure collection that will cover all the girl from the series but as you can see in the image, only the logo for the two first games are shown, so at this point I will not put my hand on the fire for this sources.<br />
<br />
Thanks to <b>Shinya Murata</b> for bringing this to my attention.<br />

Also if you remember, some months ago Volks announce a <a href="http://aliciasbakery.blogspot.com.es/2012/02/new-selvaria-bles-figure-by-volks.html" target="_blank">new Selvaria figure</a>, it seems that it was a model kit that need assembling and painting and it was released in this same event.<br />

Details for the mysterious collaboration between Sega, Namco Bandai, and Capcom have finally started to surface. Project X Zone will be a strategy RPG for the Nintendo 3DS with playable characters from various series. Kurt and Riela are one pair of characters representing Sega, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the VC cameos stop there. A trailer is expected to be released later this month, so keep an eye out for that.<br />
<br />
Here's a link to the game's official site: http://pxz.channel.or.jp/<br />

Expect more information and visuals once the counter on the website finishes ticking down.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795474699519989382.post-17035204483771513652012-04-03T19:58:00.002+02:002012-04-03T20:12:43.131+02:00Valkyria Chronicles 2: World Artworks DelayedUDON Entertainment has announced that the Valkyria Chronicles 2: World Artworks has been delayed until "late May" rather than the expected April release. Amazon provides a more concrete release date of May 17, but there is no way of knowing right now if that will actually be the release date. It is possible that May 17 will indeed be the release date as that is in line with UDON's late May announcement, but do not be surprised if it turns out to be later than that.<br /><br />Despite the delay, I urge everyone to still purchase the artbook. Not only will it be filled with wonderful art and information, good sales would go a long way in convincing UDON to release VC3's artbook despite the game not being localized.<br /><br />Lets keep our fingers crossed for some good VC news to come our way. Hopefully we will get more information on the "Valkyria Duel" game recently trademarked.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795474699519989382.post-86551915323649638772012-03-30T15:37:00.001+02:002012-03-30T15:41:07.261+02:00SEGA in trouble<div style="text-align: center;">

SEGA are planning to record 7.1 billion yen in extraordinary loss and it looks like they are going to cancel games, made some deep changes in the North American and European division and focus on brand like <b>“Sonic the Hedgehog,”, “Football Manager”, “Total War” </b>and<b> “Aliens”</b>, the ones that actually make money for them. You can read the details in this 2 pdfs but the news are all over the internet.<br />

How does it affect Valkyria Chronicles?, hard to know, but one thing for sure, they are not going to waste money on bringing Valkyria Chronicles 3 to the west, or maybe even developing another Valkyria Chronicles game in the near future, but this depends on how happy are they with the sales in Japan.</div>
