Valkyria Chronicles Remastered Review
Valkyria Chronicles was originally released on the PlayStation 3 in 2008 and at the time was considered by some to be a revolutionary take on the tactical RPG genre. Hailing an average score on Metacritic of 86 and selling just over 1 million copies worldwide it spawned two sequels on the PSP and last year was released on PC. Now the Remastered edition makes its way to the PlayStation 4. Does this 8 year old game still hold up?
