A new Valkyria Chronicles exhibit will appear in Japan ahead of the series’ 15th anniversary. A pre-opening of the Raita Honjou & Valkyria Chronicles Exhibit will take place at Phrase Gallery Akihabara from July 31 to September 4, 2022.
This exhibit will primarily feature illustrations from the Valkyria Chronicles series. There will be a focus on Valkyria Chronicles Duel, the mobile and PC browser card game that ran from 2012 to 2015. A shop selling merchandise related to the series will appear for the duration of the event. The venue will also double as Raita Honjou’s personal art exhibit. Raita Honjou provided character designs for the Valkyria games, as well as for other titles like Fate/Grand Order. As such, the venue will also feature art and products other than Valkyria Chronicles and Sega-owned IPs.
The exhibit will be open five days a week. People in Japan will be able to visit the venue on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 14:00 to 18:00 JST, and Fridays to Sundays from 12:00 to 20:00 JST. The venue will not be available on Mondays and Thursdays.
The Valkyria Chronicles series’ 15th anniversary will fall in April 2023. Sega released the first game in Japan on April 24, 2008. The series’ latest entry, Valkyria Chronicles 4, came out in 2018 for the PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
The first Valkyria Chronicles originally appeared on the PlayStation 3. The strategy RPG is also available on PlayStation 4, PC, and Nintendo Switch.
