More About Valkyria Chronicles Remastered
Valkyria Chronicles is a strategy RPG from SEGA set in a fictitious but eerily familiar war spanning the continent of Europa. Gallia, a small neutral nation is literally caught between the Federation and the Empire, and their vast deposits of the precious resource Ragnite make it a target for the Empire. The game’s main protagonist, Welkin Gunther is the son of a war hero who returns to his home town right as the Empire invades. He then rises to the rank of lieutenant and leads Gallia’s Squad 7 on perilous missions to repel the enemy forces.
In the world of Valkyria Chronicles, the year is 1935 E.C., and the continent of Europa has been plunged into the Second Europan War between the Autocratic East Europan Imperial Alliance — also known as The Empire — and the Atlantic Federation over the precious resource Ragnite. The Empire is sweeping through the continent like an unchecked wildfire and has its eyes set on the rich Ragnite deposits of the Principality of Gallia. Although peaceful Gallia remains neutral in the conflict, its citizens will need to defend home and country against the inevitable invasion. Players follow Lieutenant Welkin Gunther and the vaunted Squad 7 of the Gallian Militia as they take on the seemingly insurmountable forces of the Empire.
