SEGA in a recent blog post on the Sega Asia Blog has announced the strategy RPG, Valkyria Chronicles 4, has sold over one million units worldwide since it launch in 2018. The game is available for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows PC.
Here is an overview of the game:
- A Coming-of-Age Story in a Time of War – Valkyria Chronicles 4 takes place in the same timeframe as the original Valkyria Chronicles, but focuses on a whole new cast of main characters. Players will take command of the eager, young Commander Claude Wallace, engineer/heavy weapons extraordinaire Riley Miller, hotheaded Darcsen Raz, ice-cold ace sniper Kai Schulen, and more. Together, they will experience the painful realities of war–but will the bonds of Squad E’s friendships survive the frozen battlefield?
- The Next Generation “BLiTZ” Battle System – The part overhead turn-based strategy, part RPG, and part real-time 3rd person shooter “BLiTZ” battle system returns to the field. New features include an explosive new class called the Grenadier, numerous offensive/defensive battleship support options, chances for a unit to have a “Last Stand” action before death, and more. Plus, fight the imperial threat with more units on larger-scale maps than ever before.
- CANVAS Aesthetics – The series’ signature hand-drawn visual style is back and overhauled for the newest generation. Inspired by watercolor compositions, the CANVAS Graphics Engine blends visual elements of reality and imagination to create an expressive world filled with colorful emotions. Watch the journey of Squad E unfold like an interactive painting!
- The Return of a Legendary Composer – The illustrious Hitoshi Sakimoto, original composer of the Valkyria Chronicles series and countless other emotional epics, returns to provide a sweeping orchestral score for Valkyria Chronicles 4.

I love this game so much. It certainly deserved this.
Me too. It was my favorite game of 2018. I got the collectors' edition on Switch.
Happy to see this, uts a fantastic game and i think i like it even more than the original.
hopefully it was profitable enough for Sega to consider making another one in the franchise.
Hopefully it's enough that Sega will consider making a 5th game and localizing it.
Good to hear. Hope this means it was at least profitable.
I'm happy to hear that. Not a blockbuster by today's standards, but I'm glad it wasn't a complete sales disaster as I had feared.
Well earned
