■ Story
Long ago,
Ragnarok—the End Times—loomed upon the realms.
The All-Father Odin, with the last of his strength, created an emissary of redemption, Valkyrie; her sole task the salvation of a doomed world.
And thence began the tale of a new Valkyrie.
■ About
—In an unjust world, what will you choose?—
Valkyrie Elysium is the latest title in the Valkyrie series that depicts the “death of humankind” and “the existence of gods” with a unique worldview based on Norse mythology.
Motoi Sakuraba’s masterful tracks enhance the new Valkyrie world drawn in high end graphics. As the first actionRPG of its series, it retains the familiar special attacks and combo system while taking it to the next level with a new three-dimensional, fast paced battle system.
