Valkyria Chronicles (?????????? -Gallian Chronicles-, Senjo no Varukyuria -Garian Kuronikuruzu-?, "Battlefield Valkyria: Gallian Chronicles") is a tactical role-playing game developed and published by Sega for the PlayStation 3.[4] The game was released in 2008.

The game is set in Europa, a fictional version of World War II Europe, in 1935. Because of its abundance of Ragnite ore, which can be refined into a powerful fuel, the neutral nation of Gallia comes under attack from the East Europan Imperial Alliance, which is itself engaged in a war with the Atlantic Federation.[5] Players take control of a militia squad of Gallian nationals, dedicated to repelling the invasion. The game's visuals, which use Sega's CANVAS graphics engine, resemble a watercolor painting in motion.[6]

Valkyria Chronicles received universally high scores and earned numerous awards from several notable video game publications. The success of the game spawned a media franchise, including manga titles, a televised anime series, and thus far two sequels on the PlayStation Portable: Valkyria Chronicles II,[7] and Valkyria Chronicles III.[8]
