A new spin off game in the Valkyria franchise, this game may be a prequel to the "Valkyria Chronicles" series and uses a new battle system, LeGION system, that should allow for much larger battles. A Demo for this game will be released with "Valkyria Chronicles Remastered" that is set to be released on February 10th 2016.
About the story
All it takes is a single spark to start the inferno of war, and in the story of Valkyria Revolution, players will experience that firsthand. Five lifelong friends consumed by personal revenge plunge an entire continent into a terrible war, sacrificing the lives of countless innocents for a cause based on twisted half-truths and outright lies. This “Circle of Five” use their combined influence in their political and military positions to motivate their small, economically blockaded homeland to rise up and become a powerful resistance against its imperialist oppressors. Will the Circle of Five be remembered as heroic liberators, or will their selfish motives expose them as traitorous conspirators who sacrificed untold lives just to carry out a personal vendetta? Players will watch this history unfold in Valkyria Revolution and find out the truth behind the events...

Critic Reviews
Geeks Under Grace
By Joe MorganValkyria Revolution should have been a single-season anime. Instead, we've gotten a game that's frustrating on the surface, boring in practice, and infuriating to reflect on. Save both your time and money.
RPG Site
By Josh TorresFrustrating shortcomings in its abundant cutscenes and gameplay make this the weakest entry in the Valkyria series yet.
DigitalCentralMedia
By Jordan MichealValkyria Revolution is a huge disappointment. The combat system is bland and repetitive and the characters are dull and uninteresting.
GameMAG
By xtrValkyria Revolution will disappoint fans of the original tactics and will not be able to hook a new generation of gamers who prefer action. Weak story, flat characters, forgettable monotonous missions and the failed game concept bring only disappointment. It is very sad that instead of established tactical formula the publisher has decided to release such a controversial product.
TheSixthAxis
By Dominic LeightonValkyria Revolution's biggest crime is that it is utterly dull. The tonal changes to the narrative, and to the combat system, are completely pointless, and not only do a disservice to the Valkyria name, they render it meaningless. Such are the differences between the two titles I don't understand why they bothered to sully the series' fantastic reputation with this release.
