After its availability as pre-download started yesterday, today Square Enix officially launched in Japan the prequel to the Valkyrie Profile series, Valkyrie Anatomia: The Origin.
Some games have a rather unusual way of conveying information and taking people on an adventure, and we then see that mechanic mimicked. Konami’s Dance Dance Revolution and GuitarFreaks led to games like Pump It Up and Guitar Hero. Tri-Ace’s Valkyrie Profile is a similar sort. It’s an RPG, but blends in platforming and a more active interface for engaging in attacks. But, as interesting as its ideas were, they didn’t really influence other games at the time. Rather, it took years for other titles to start picking up on the concepts and attempting to integrate them into their own experiences.
Noisy Pixel reviews Valkyrie Anatomia: The Origin from developer Square Enix and publisher WonderPlanet, available now on iOS and Android devices.
I love when mobile games are given knockoff/buzzword titles to garnish sales. Except SE is knocking itself off!
Today Square Enix announced that a popular character from Bandai Namco's Tales series is coming to the mobile game Valkyrie Anatomia: The Origin.
I miss Tales of the Rays. Not often that western gamers get crossover Tales games
You should add that it's a mobile title, so people can avoid clicking.
*looks at the website*
Ahhh...okay.....i see
Sigh... The gameplay looks awesome, but I want VP on my console! I wonder how it plays...
Damn. It doesn't look half bad for mobile. I would have rather them put this on console instead of Exist Archive.
I started it a few hours ago, its quite fun and getting harder with each quest
ok so why the **** isnt this for vita or psn? Most people who play games on their phones wont even know about this series
