Some of you have already played this year Valkyria Chronicles Remastered , and maybe with the team 7 have resisted the invasion of the Gallic Empire. Well, get ready: the war is about to change!

Valkyria Revolution takes place in an alternate universe and time, which represents a revolution in series of Valkyria. Remain clearly some common elements: there is still the major enemy encampment, blue ore from magical properties, as well as the ancient race of demigods destroyers known as Valkyria.

Valkyria Revolution shows us how a spark is enough to start a war, witnessing this tragic dynamic firsthand. Five longtime friends consumed by a personal vendetta are ready to cast an entire continent into chaos and to sacrifice thousands of innocent lives for a cause that is based on a Web of half-truths and outright lies. This "circle of Five" will use all its influence in the political and military to push their small and economically fragile country to rebel against the imperialists that oppress.

The circle of Five will go down in history for having freed the homeland or their selfish actions will make them hold up as traitors who sacrificed countless lives to fulfill their personal revenge?

Big stuff, huh? This is the story that players will find themselves living in Valkyria Revolution, but there are other things to consider.

As in all conflicts, morality is a variable concept. The game itself takes the player to wonder if he's a hero or a villain, and staying on the topic of morality is the concept of permanent death. May in fact be tactically advantageous to sacrifice a soldier for the good of the group, but then we must have the courage to inform their loved ones.

Even the combat works differently from Valkyria Chronicles. In Revolution, the turn-based system was abandoned in favour of a combat mode operates in a constantly evolving battlefield. The tactic remains fundamental, as well as the AI team that is customizable. You can decide whether to give priority to attack, defense and support globally or if individuals specialize in using spells or weapons, as well as set the choice of primary targets, for instance the enemy leader.

Also the weapons are highly customizable: are the players decide which increase depending on your style of play, if for example the weapons to use in melee or missile ones, which themselves vary from gun to flamethrower.

And finally, don't forget that this is a war: the destiny of a nation is at stake, in addition to countless lives. You have to build a network of contacts to operate to the best military intelligence and have good relationships with their mates can mean dictator from battle rather than agonize witnessing the surrender of one's own country.

Valkyria Revolution arrives in America and Europe in spring 2017 on Xbox One in both physical and digital.
