Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume and Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth have contrast stories. Both the protagonists, and the atmosphere of both games, seems contradictory and such a case can be made for Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth being a game about life and Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume being about death.   < Editor’s note: Since [...]

The Valkyrie Profile series has gone the way of most all successful Square-Enix franchises – it has spawned a strategic RPG. Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume returns us to the game’s universe in a prequel that has players trying to get revenge on the valkyrie Lenneth.   Wylfred is a young man in the [...]

In the wake of the great RPG flood of 2009 Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume is being swept away. Eyes are on Tri-Ace’s other game, Star Ocean: The Last Hope, right now.   Square Enix still has about a month to thrust Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume into the spotlight before it comes [...]

I predicted Square Enix picked up Valkyrie Profile: The Accused One back in June when I caught a trademark. Now, about five months later, we have an official confirmation that Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume is coming and a teaser site to poke at. But, there isn’t anything to see aside from the March [...]

Nintendo’s officially translated skeleton release schedule says Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume is coming out on November 1 in Japan. Yeah, we already know the date, it’s the name that matters. Valkyrie Profile: Toga wo Seou Mono translates into Valkyrie Profile: The Accused One. So, why is Nintendo calling it Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of [...]

Valkyrie Profile: Toga Wo Seou Mono was supposed to come out next week in Japan. Instead it’s being held back until the end of the month, rescheduled for released on October 30. Tri-Ace has been busy with other projects like Infinite Undiscovery and Star Ocean 4: The Last Hope. Series staples, Freya and Lenneth, are [...]

Remember when we discovered Square Enix trademarked Covenant of the Plume? They just used it. The official soundtrack for Valkyrie Profile DS goes on sale on November 11 and the cover art says Valkyrie Profile – Covenant of the Plume – official soundtrack in plain English. Oh, but in the Japanese text says Valkyrie Profile: [...]

In Valkyrie Profile: Togo wo Seou Mono (Valkyrie Profile: The Accused One) Lenneth, the protagonist of the original game in the series, is viewed as a villain. Wylfred (pictured) seeks revenge against Lenneth for taking his father’s soul. This leads into tactical battles blended with the familiar button mashing system used to purify weird souls. [...]

Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria was great, but it was missing the frantic, button mashing battle system from the first game. Tri-ace didn’t forget about it, though. The PsOne combat system is being revised into a more tactical Mutual Assist System for the Valkyrie Profile: Toga wo Seou Mono (Valkyrie Profile: The Accused One).   Before [...]

Speaking of Square Enix, the publisher recently trademarked “Covenant of the Plume”. I’m guessing this is going to be the US subtitle for Valkyrie Profile: Toga wo Seou Mono. I know it doesn’t translate into anything like Valkyrie Profile: The Accused Ones, but the logo has a plume on it. Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the [...]

Star Ocean: Second Evolution isn’t out yet, but the content from the Tri-Ace trailer disc is. Ram sent us links (thanks!!) to two trailers of Tri-Ace’s upcoming projects.   The Star Ocean 4 trailer is a mix of familiar footage with some new clips. Tri-Ace still hasn’t revealed what system Star Ocean 4 is for [...]

Along with the big reveal of Atlus' Persona 4, Weekly Famitsu also happened to mention some new information regarding Valkyrie Profile: The Accused One for the Nintendo DS. As originally revealed a while back, Valkyrie Profile: The Accused One will be developed by tri-Ace themselves, easing any worries anyone may have had about another developer [...]

tri-Ace has been hard at work with Infinite Undiscovery and Star Ocean 4, but who seriously would have thought that Valkyrie Profile, what some would define as the pinnacle of JRPGs, would see a DS iteration and be developed by tri-Ace themselves? I didn't believe it, of course, until now. Though very little is unknown [...]

Square-Enix just released Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria in North America and we have a screenshot gallery to go along with the release. See pictures of the new 3D / four character battle system and cutscene stills past the jump. Also we have impressions of the Japanese game and a couple of videos of gameplay flow [...]
