Valkyria Chronicles 3 English release not happening
by Andrew Yoon, Oct 11, 2011 10:00am PDTSega's critically acclaimed Valkyria Chronicles franchise may be done for in the States. Sega has confirmed that neither North America nor Europe will receive a localized version of Valkyria Chronicles 3... and you are all to blame.
Sega's Hiroshi Seno confirmed that the game will not be localized due to poor sales of Valkyria Chronicles 2.
Gamespot tracked down Sega's team manager of console sales in Singapore, who confirmed that the PSP's dwindling popularity in non-Japanese territories made it difficult to justify localizing the third game.
Why didn't you buy Valkyria Chronicles 2? It was one of my favorite games last year, and it earned a decent Metacritic rating to boot. Thanks to all of you, you're depriving Steve of one of his most anticipated games, and one of my favorite games from Tokyo Game Show. I can only hope that Sega forgives your sins by possibly re-releasing the game on Vita, or by giving another publisher (XSEED, perhaps?) a chance at bringing the game stateside.

This is probably the best stratagy game i have played in a long while. The system it uses is basicaly the same system from the tabletop miniature game Infinity, which is a great rules system. Sure tactics ogre and FFtactics are great strat games, but this was fresh and interessting, and perfect for a guns/shooting strat game.
I think this is probly more of a Sega problem, i dont think they have released a game i have wanted to play in a really long time and they lost what ever magic they had. I LOVED PSO and now PSO2 is PC only, which is fine, but i have enough MMO's on my PC, now my 360 i deffinetly would have bought it, but yet another game they will bring to the states but in a limited compacity.
