With its fast approaching release date (Apr 24), Sega amazing looking SRPG Senjou no Valkyria (Valkyrie Of The Battlefield: Gallian Chronicles in English) keep teasing me to just go ahead and buy the Japanese version. Game Watch has an article taking a detail look at the game’s world and background with some new screens.

Ragnite

The story takes place in fictional Europe when everyone rely heavily on “Ragnite” as their source of energy. Duchy of Gallia happens to be the main producer of “Ragnite” and two warring countries surrounding it, Empire and Federation are looking to invade the country for its rich mineral.

The blue colored energy ore power every moving vehicle in the continent.

Obviously, it is used for weapons like grenades as well.

The light of “Ragnite” happens to have recovery effects too. Players can use it to heal themselves or friends who are hurt.

Selvaria Bles, a Valkyria, charged herself with “Ragnite” and can unleash some special attack.

Valkyria

An ancient race that helps defeat the Dalkus to bring peace to the continent long ago, they are highly civilized and said to possess great fighting skills. But the entire race mysteriously disappeared, leaving behind tales about them and few descendants. Selvaria Bles of the Empire is one of them.

Bariaus Remains

Built by the Valkyrias, Bariaus Remains is a strange shape building located in the Bariaus Desert and has high concentration of “Ragnite”.

Selvaria Bles

Leading the army of Empire is Selvaria Bles, a Valkyria descendant who can transform into a powerful fighter with her gun and shield, powered by the Ragnite.

Princess Cordelia

The 16 years old princess of Duchy of Gallia who is the rightful successful to the throne after her parents past away but Borg, the prime minister is in charge of the country due to her young age. Cordelia is a Valkyria descendant as well, but no one if she possess the same power as Selvaria Bles.
