In this episode, Region Locked takes a look at Japan's Valkyria Chronicles 3. The series started on the PlayStation 3 (PS3) but ultimately moved to the PlayStation Portable (PSP), which led to this third game staying in Japan. Through our analysis of the game and its gameplay, we hope you learn some fun facts about the series and have everything about it explained.

battle stadium d.o.n did you know
I don't think I've ever seen a pinned comment on a large channel with such a small number of likes and comments before.
After playing 1 and 4 on the Switch I'm hoping we get ports (and a localized version) of 2 and 3. These games are fun.
Oh how i wish
Lol... and now we have Valkyria Chronicles 4, which is reusing all those VC1 assets and engine.
well better reusing something good then make some new shit and the graphics from the 3rd are a huge downgrade to the first one
Zerberos22 That's the point. They learned their lesson.
And they actually managed to improve it a bit in my opinion, a good improve from VC 1 gameplay to VC 4
@@Zerberos22 hey 2nd and 3rd are good. If you're going to shit on something, shit on the Valkyria revolution.
and it still wasn't as good as VC3 lol
Shame 3 never got released in English. In my opinion it was the best of the series.
Edit: after playing 4, yeah this is still the best. Not saying 4 is bad, it's great, but 3 is still the best.
There is an English patch for this game. Its fan made but is actually well done. :)
Yes, 1000 times yes. I wish this could somehow be revisited, even if it was a console port.
But does 3 have a homicidal maniac that almost gets the squad killed multiple times but no one blames because "Raz is like that lol"? Or a romance story as deep as: Claude essentially saved Rileys life by stopping her from running into a burning building when they were 8, so she absolutely despised him for it for like 12 years before deciding he "changed" whatever that means and being into him again? Didn't think so.. Also, a practice match in the middle of an occupied city with non lethal mortar shells, grenades and AP tank rounds.. For some bread and bacon.. 4 Is the true clown game..
I only know The third games characters because of Project X Zone.
Ace Phoenix Project X Zone is a goldmine of video game trivia.
Same here, I would love it if they did more episodes based on games featured in PXZ, like Yumeria or Sakura Wars.
Brandon Pierce They're not going to do Sakura Wars, I've made multiple requests for that series and they said it's extremely unlikely.
WHAT!?! But why... Did they give a reason?
Brandon Pierce Yeah, they did. The comment is on the video about the region locked episode about Another Treasure Island.
If we can get 2 & 3 remastered for Steam and PS4 that would be awesome :3
Dan Johnson well as a fan of the old shining force games, take a seat, we're gonna be here awhile.
Might as well do a VC1-3 remaster collection on all consoles now since 4 is going to be on Switch/Xbox One.
Dont forget the Nintendo switch
Well you can still play VC3 with and fan made English patch.
I'm playing this on my phone right now with 80+ hours. :)
HEY put it on the switch to.
You can beg them for a kickstarter for localization. Many companies and Japanese companies are starting use the Kickstarter method to localize japanese visual novels. It is a solid method since a company can set a set minimum of people commit to the game and give the company profit and/or give a hands on look to the popularity to the game in question.
I really hope they release Valkyria Chronicles 2 and 3 on PC like they did with the original. I never had a PsP so really have an itch to play these.
Silva The second is way more Anime than the first one. It takes place in a military high school-esque training school. It's way less story heavy and more about the individual characters which is something I wish the first did better. I think VC1 is better though.
That doesn't sound too bad to me. As long as the gameplay is still solid it would be nice to get to know my squad better. Outside of the Big 5 you don't learn to much about the soldiers under your command in VC 1. Though I do still love that they added some Skies of Arcadia references in the first game.
Harrison Scott Yeah, I wasn't the biggest fan of the second game, mainly because of what you said. I'm also not into games that have fan-service and where gamers obsess over waifu's and who to ship; it just gets too cringey haha, but I did manage to enjoy Persona 4.
psp emulation is great, I know it's not the same but I recommend you try it
yeah just google ppsspp, thats how i played through them.
The PSP is well known as the "JRPG Machine."
And not only is the PSP not the most popular handheld in North America and Europe but more popular in Japan, but the case is the same for the PS Vita that's pretty much dead except in Japan.
Nana-Kyoto and the switch is killing the Vita in Japan.
Haruhi Suzumiya I bet.
Rip vita, You had a good run
Didn't DS was more popular in North America and Europe than PSP?
Also known as "those weird assist guys in project X zone"
Absolutely loved this series. 3 is my Favourite!
KuruHS WAIT WHAT???
I DIDNT EVEN KNOW A NFS STREAMER LIKES VALKYRIA CHRONICLES???
I like 2 the most personally but 2 and 3 are the only ones I have played so far XD
I played the translation hack. This is my favorite of the series.
Took better parts of the second while removing the fluff, and had pretty memorable characters.
Valkyria 2+3 HD on PS4 would make a lot of sense. I'm surprised it didn't already happen between the first remake and the new one coming out. But maybe it'll still happen since the new one is connected to the first, I believe.
strippinheat well see if sega is smart enough to make that happen
Heck with 4 coming to switch and Xbox One it would be nice if we got some kind of VC1-3 remaster collection for all the consoles.
Did you know:
The 422nd Penal Squad, Nameless, is a reference to a real American Squad also named the 422nd Infantry Regiment of the United States.
The 442nd Regimental Combat Team is an infantry regiment of the United States Army, part of the Army Reserve. The regiment was a fighting unit composed almost entirely of American soldiers of Japanese ancestry (mostly from Hawaii) who fought in World War II. Most of the families of mainland Japanese Americans were confined to internment camps in the United States interior. Beginning in 1944, the regiment fought primarily in Europe during World War II, in particular Italy, southern France, and Germany.
The 442nd Regiment was the most decorated unit for its size and length of service in the history of American warfare.
The 4,000 men who initially made up the unit in April 1943 had to be
replaced nearly 2.5 times. In total, about 14,000 men served, earning
9,486 Purple Hearts. The unit was awarded eight Presidential Unit Citations (five earned in one month). Twenty-one of its members were awarded Medals of Honor. Its motto was "Go for Broke".
Source, Wikipedia.
In short, the squad is composed of Japanese people who are forced to do the hardest missions during World War II in order to prove their allegiance.
Nice content! Keep it up!
I didn't even know there was Valkyria Chronicles 3, WTF Sega
With Valkyria Chronicles ported for the PC, PlayStation 4, and the Nintendo Switch I think there is hope we would see an official release the third entry along with the second in the near future. Am looking forward of buying the Valkyria Chronicles for the Switch. :)
John V I hope so.
I'm just hoping any Valkyria series that will be released in the future, would be marketed much better by Sega
Seems like the series is still quite underrated now, even if Valkyria Chronicles 4 has just been released.
I adore the first game, and only discovered it a couple of years ago on Steam. I was real disappointed to find out that its only sequels were on the PSP. While I can't imagine it happening, it'd be amazing if another game in the series came out on the Switch, or at least Steam.
You should do a feature on Shadow Tower Abyss for the ps2. Yeah a sequel to an obscure spin off to the slightly less obscure franchise Kings Field probably a strange choice. But SH:A was a very advanced game for its time and had a lot of the dark horror themed elements that one could argue served as a inspiration to From Software's Souls series. It's also really fun.
Hang on, there's a 3. Wtf, release that shit on Steam.
Surely "translation costs" can't be higher than the potential for profits for a worldwide release... Eh, what do I know.
This game is pretty good, if not for the PSP budget it may have beaten the quality of the first game. Would recommend looking into the Extra edition version of this game as there is a Fan English translation of the game.
Well, when you think about it, because Steam is a digital distribution platform, the production costs (which is the actually costly part of "translation costs") would be null or nearly null.
Thing is the developers have stated that if they decide to release VC2 and 3 on Steam they would rather remake both games completely and more akin to VC1/V:R
So in short, it has a chance but not in its original form
Tik On that subject, I am REALLY concerned for valkyria revolution, it looks really... questionable. I hope I'm wrong and it turns out great but as it is I'm not holding my breath over it...
Love to see this game on Steam or at least get a remaster at some point.
1.28 Correction, there are actually three other classes that are unlocked a little later in the game: Sniper, Gunner, and Fencer.
Imo, Valk 3 managed to achieve the best overall gameplay balance in the whole series, which only makes it hurt a little more that it never saw an official release outside of Japan.
Anyone love Imca over power lance canon that can lock aim and hit multiple enemy
THX U for translating Valkyria Chronicles 3 so MUCH. You did amazing job. You doing it possible to play such a great game for western audience. Great job, maggots!!
I'm still crying from when they announced that this won't be localized
Just use the fan translation. vc3translationproject.wordpress.com/2013/12/25/patch-download-and-instructions/
The translation is damn good too.
Yeah I know just need to get the right stuff yo make it work
You don't need anything but the latest firmware and the file with the custom firmware. It's stupidly easy to do and only takes a couple minutes.
What I meant is that I need to get my psp fixed cause half the screen is broken
This one hurts me. I love Valkyria Chronicles 1, and Kurt and Reila were some of my favorite units in project X zone. Hopefully they bring this game over someday.
I would love to see this and part 2 remade
More Valkyria games to steam please. Best purchase I have ever made.
1:39 9? That's much better than the lousy 6 they allowed in 2.
2:15 It's weird hearing the last name Irving not being attached to Lloyd Irving.
Speaking of Lloyd Irving...How is your son Kratos?
I'm a fan fo Hitoshi Sakimoto since Vagrant Story times! Great video!!!
I Never understood Why developers would bring a sequel to a weaker console? You could make a Spin off title but a sequel ?
Why downgrade from the ps3 to the psp ? What is the gain ?
Felix Dotzler Simply budget. handheld games cost less to make.
Exactly
Sega just making bad decisions as usual lol
because the first game was a risk and it bombed lol and the ps3 at the time there was doing shit. So they went for the platform where games where actually selling on its very understandable why they did it.
@@LunaPPK I wished they have waited a little bit more and released it on PC instead. Majority of Valkyria's sales are from Steam.
So I finally got done playing this today. Have to say it was a really solid game. Enjoyed it a lot. Shame it wasn't localized because the fan translation while good enough I suppose was a bit sloppy in all honesty. (6:10 I mean seriously they called THAT translation completed? Some parts were left untranslated and a lot of parts that were like I said were done really sloppy.)
5:06 Yet they were fine with doing that for the PSP by reusing materials and the engine from VC2 for VC3?
It's because they can easily expand far more upon it.
But reusing the PS3 means people will expect less than 30 second load times just to get in the fucking game.
I didn't know 3 existed until playing Project X zone, and that made me like the characters. But I'm pissed that we never get it in the west. I totally would've wanted to play a darker story more than the happy story that Valkyria 1 had
I think we'll eventually get it released in due time. I remember importing the soundtrack for VC3 way back in 2011, not only because the series has great music, but I love everything that Hitoshi Sakimoto composes.
Yeah, their were couple other Sega games on the PSP that never saw the light in the west, Phantasy Star Portable 3 and I believe the Shining series never came here.
I know one of the shining games came over. It was fantastic, shame more never came over.
i really love this franchise, the fact that we haven't seen a proper home console sequel from it is really sad... i gave up asking for a proper sequel since 3 was announced. Now i just want a remaster of the psp ones on ps4... C'mon Sega!
I hope Sega releases further entries of this series on Nintendo platforms.
Luckily I have the English patch and I'm quite enjoying it, Thank you so much for the people who patched it, and I hope Sega releases a "Special Remastered Trilogy edition" on PC and Console.
0:02 Lol, when your intro theme is just a shortened version of the Kirby Super Star intro.
"development staff considered the third entry to be the first sequel"
I'm sorry, but I can't seem to understand this sentence. It means that they feel like VC3 is the actual sequel, and VC2 is more like VC1.5?
I think it means they thought 2 sucked
so shocked that this has not being released offically yet.
I would go so far as to say 3's the best in the series in terms of story and overall character development.
Those armored tech guys look neat with the shield, shame they never came back
They were so stupid aesthetics and mechanics wise. Glad they ditched them in 4.
I remember being SO excited back in the day, after playing VC2 and then hearing from practically every gaming news outlet that VC3 was to be released worldwide. I think PlayStation Magazine even had a North American release date.
I dont know if you gonna read this but can you think about doing an episode on Fate/Extra CCC? It would be good and nice for sharing the series.
Also, the only time we got VC3 in any sort of form in the West, was in Project X Zone which Kurt, Riela, and Inca appear in.
To clarify, there are 5 classes in VC3, but with more classes unlockable as you progress. (The first one being Sniper)
While VC2's poor sales made VC3 not translated in the end, I'm very glad they're going all in for VC4. I hope the incoming 4th entry sells, because VC4's sales will define the future of the series.
I am still pissed of that this isnt available officially in English. We got the fucking art book but not the actual game. SEGA, making bad decisions since 1989. They make great games, but are run by complete idiots.
art book instead of the actual game? in what planet does that make fucking sense?
the 100% fan translation exists so who cares.
The main story is fully translated, however, some of the side content DLC is still in Japanese.
The company is positively changing ever since they acquired Atlus, so who knows. If Valkyria Chronicles 2 gets remastered for PS4, maybe a Valkyria Chronicles 3 may get remastered with an international release too!
You can't deny the decision was reasonable. The PSP sold terribly in the West, and a niche game like Valkyria just wouldn't shift units.
Mabey will see a remastered with 2 and 3 Sega?
Would have helped to sell if they promoted the games hear in USA I first herd of the games only 2 or 3 years ago it's great game I would have picked up at full price back then
This one was easily my favorite, blowing the first one out of the water.
I could never get into the gameplay of Valkyria Chronicles, however the story is just simply amazing! I would love to try it out again if they release the 3rd one on PC.
Honestly, a very amazing game. Just wish they remastered it to pc with the VC 1 graphics and officially translate it.
*_Will a region lock video appear for the switch 😏_*
Yeah, once Switch gets games.
+Atsuko Kagari
You missed the joke. Switch games cant be regionlocked.
Though that doesnt mean they all get a localization.
Weege220/YTB no, because the switch is region free,
and it has games.
Atsuko Kagari the switch has games, just ones you either don't play or don't know exist.
Haruhi Suzumiya *_Hey you actually know 😄 great, lots of people haven't heard about it still lol_*
These are the kind of video that makes me proud of playing Project X Zone.
Always leave someone on your main base...FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!! NEVER LEAVE THE MAIN BASE WITHOUT A SOLDIER! NEVER DO THAT!!! if you excuse me I an going to cry a little, remembering the time that i played this game.
"The developers considered VC3 to be the first sequel" So...they retconned VC2 then lore wise. Oh, thank god.
Actually, no, several VC2 characters make short cameos, in some cases even as mission specific guest units.
I really wish a legit version of II & III for PC, PS4, or 3DS. I love that first game, but I couldn't justify buying a new handheld just for one game.
The texts are in English, are you using the fan made translation? Is this an emulated PSP? Many of the textures are so pixelated. VC2 was not that pixelated...
By the way, I loved VC and VC2 and I'm still pissed Sega didn't bring VC3 westward! VC HD trilogy to PS4!!!
Please Sega, release 2 and 3 for PS4 as a remaster. I love 1 and 2. I want them to be as beautiful as the first one.
Hey Sega, remaster Valkyria Chronicles 2 and Valkyria Chronicles 3 for the PS4 and PC!
Wait...those characters were in PXZ1.
The PSP entries fixed a lot of issues with the first game's formula that sadly VC4 just decided to completely ignore and put back how it was. VC3 remains the best of the series, IMO.
Can you tell me what are those issues?
@@nguyen.tien.phat1310 having a large cast where only the main ones actually matter, missions not mixing it up enough, Scouts breaking the game completely once agan, orders being broken shit to name a few
@@LunaPPK i see, thank you very much
Im playing this right now, and holy shit... it beats the first game in so many aspects! its only held back by the limits of the PSP and not having big maps. But the story, the characters, the new classes and everything else is better, its particulary great that this time the squad characters aren't randomized, you get it as the story goes on, so all of them are part of the story and have their own personalized missions. So the team is a lot better than in previous games, i really love the characters!
Valkyria Chronicles 3 getting some love
and I was just replaying this game, it is soooo good! the best VC title IMHO
I am honestly surprised you didn't mention that Kurt, Riela and Imca all appeared in Project X Zone.
if i remember correctly there are three more classes besides the main 5, unlocked later as you progress in the game
Valkyria Chronicles 1 on PS3 is one of my favorite games!
one of the most underappreciated games period.
And having no region locking on playstation consoles is why I always went sony. There are tons of games we'll never see and thanks to Nintendos locking you have to modify your console (possibly bricking it) just to experience it. Even if you tried to import it the cartridge won't work on their systems. And I know many of the psp games that we never got turned out to be my favorits like project Diva, some of the Idolm@ster games and a few RPGs.
For those who didn't know, Senjou no Valkyria 3 had a 2-part OVA ( _or was it 3?_ ) which somehow manages to be better than the entire 20+ episode of Senjou no Valkyria 1.
Or maybe that's just my opinion.
Either way, the Nameless in my opinion are the more interesting characters.
A shame this game never came out because I loved playing as Riela and Kurt in Project X Zone.
Well they didn’t make that mistake with Valkyria 4. And they made it for the Switch and Play Station
The Squad should of been numbered 404
Error 404
Best Valkyria game ever
Please do a Region Locked dedicated to the Sailor Moon video games, especially "Sailor Moon Another Story" on Super Famicom, because most of them has been Japanese exclusives and it's seems BANDAI NAMCO has no plans to release or re-release any Sailor Moon games on the main consoles anytime soon (I know I know they released Sailor Moon Drops on Android/iOS devices), but when comes to Dragon Ball Z/One Piece/Naruto its seems they release a new game every other year. Give Sailor Moon a chance on the spotlight.
two things I want from sega. valkyria chronicles 4 on home consoles and skies of arcadia 2. JUST. DO IT!!
Awesome video 👍
I so wanted to play this.
I LOVE the Valkyria series, i'm still holding out for a full port to Steam seeing as the majority of the Legacy of Kain collection (PS1) is on there aswell as other smaller titles -compaired to their main series- like Neptunia U and Blanc+Neptune vs Zombies which were on portable systems.. or maybe i just have too higher hopes for the improbable from SEGA
one of my favorite war games..next to advance wars
The gameplay reminds me a lot of Code Name: Steam.
People remember that game exists, right?
Mr. Pokirby i think this game series came out before code name steam
VC 1:OP militia squad
VC 2:Civil War
VC 2:Penal squad
VC 4: Spec ops:High School Rangers
VC 5:Somewhere near or in Galia,maybe the civil war?maybe naval warfare?maybe it's time for aircrafts to rule? OR MAYBE THERE WILL BE NO VC5 FOR US TO PLAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!
Squad 422 is the Best squad
Never understood why the PSP sold so poorly. It didn't have as many great games as the GBA or DS, but it had its share of original titles and ports worth playing (love me some Disgaea and Summon Night).
More importantly, once you put some CFW on it, it was an amazing system for emulating
previous handhelds and consoles prior to the N64 (played PS1 games that Sony deemed unworthy of a Playstation Store release and Japanese only GBA games mostly).
I still play it about as often as my other consoles.
JRPG's are far from console sellers in the west; that's also why the vita died when the best games it had too were JRPGs and ports (and a bunch of horrible hardware decisions as well)
I'm still flabbergasted they actually put 2 and 3 on PSP. 2 was such a massive disappointment and outright downgrade from 1; and to nail in the coffin 3 didn't even get released outside of Japan and was also a PSP exclusive. in 2011. wtf sega lmao
FaraguAzai Japan is primarily a portable gaming country so then putting it on PSP isn't surprising when they want sales.
From the interviews of the video, it sounds like they either didnt like PS3 format very much or really like PSP's format.
Or didn't get the budget they'd need for a PS3 sequel.
Very true, but I still feel making Valkyria Chronicles 2 was a poor decision that essentially alienated a majority of their fans in favor of the Japanese mobile-centric community which most likely resulted in a large net loss in profits worldwide; and thus essentially dooming Valkyria Chronicles 3 to be region locked.
That might actually be it. Let's not forget that the PS3 was notoriously bad to develop for thanks to the Cell Processor, with the PS3 oftentimes getting the worst technically performing version of multiplatform titles (Bayonetta, for instance).
Also most people tend to forget this thanks to the PS4 / PC remaster, but Valkyria Chronicles PS3 had load-time problems (booting up the game from the dashboard would take 30+ seconds alone), which may indicate some problems with the hardware
Who also wants a Valkyria Chronicles Collection Remaster for PS4???
Aaand I did try the JP demo of the new Valkyria game, Valkyria Revolution, and it is something totally different, did not like the changes... I would say it is like "Final Fantasy: Valkyria".
i believe that the launch of the sequels on the psp killed the franchise...
well the psp versions had a player vs player mode which was amazing
Squad 422 >= Squad 7 > Squad E F > Class G
This game did the idea of a "suicide squad" better than the actual DC comics/movie could ever do it. And it's in the Valkyria chronicles series so that's good. Shame they never released it outside of Japan though.
Now everyone can enjoy the game with Valkria Chronicles fully English translated by fans of the series.
Played the game when it was out and Loved it, too bad that my PSP broke first before I can finish the game...
My fat PSP was old as hell at the time this was released.
that's crazy I am literally playing vc 1 right now when this was uploaded, and was wondering if they made sequels
I already watch it on gaming chronicles, but can you talk about Sakura Taisen, since this is Sega and Valkiria is kinda a Sakura Taisen spiritual succesor?
Defenitively Code Name S.T.E.A.M's inspiration
The next region locked should be Tales of Innocence
Any tips for playing these games and not being terrible at them? I own the first game, but I got frustrated a few missions in and stopped.
Can you do a region locked episode about Initial D Arcade Stage and its console ports?
I think you guys should cover the Danball Senki series.
