On April 16 the battle in Gallia rages on with three items of Valkyria Chronicles downloadable content. Hard EX mode, Edy’s mission, and Selvaria mission each cost $4.99 on the PlayStation Store. Not bad considering the Selvaria’s mission and Edy’s mission are priced lower than Japan. However, Hard EX mode is a bit more expensive at $4.99 opposed to 300 yen ($3). It seems like Sega USA opted for a one price fits all kinds of Valkyria Chronicles DLC plan.
Here is a quick rundown of the DLC and a batch of screenshots.
Hard EX Mode – fight your way once again through the entire Imperial army, where the enemies are more lethal and your main tank Edelweiss is unavailable. You’ll have to be more strategic in order to overcome your opponents.
Edy’s Mission “Enter the Edy Detachment” – six members have been separated from Squad 7 and on their journey to reunite with their squad, they stumble upon a tiny village under attack by the Imperial Army. Play as Edy and command your outnumbered team to defend the small village from annihilation.
Selvaria’s Mission “Behind Her Blue Flame”– Taking place right after the outbreak of Gallian battle lines, you play as Johann, a young and meek engineer assigned to Selvaria’s troop. See the action as it unfolds behind enemy lines and see the war play out through the eyes of the enemy.
