Valkyria Chronices: New DLC: Edy Detachment’s Challenge

Edy and the gang

To those of you eagerly anticipating a Valkyria Chronicles sequel (although I think it will be a prequel) it looks like we will be getting one more piece of downloadable content to hold you over.  This particular DLC will be available June 26th in Japan for 300 yen and is being called Edy Detachment’s Challenge.

Included in Edy Detachment’s Challenge are 6 challenges directly from mega-idol Edy herself.  It appears that the missions take place on maps which were used in prior story missions (but probably not skirmish maps).  I am not sure if there are actually any new unique maps.  These battles are said to require unusual tactics to complete each mission, but no details are given.  It does not appear that exclusively the Edy Detachment will be making an appearance, at least looking at the various screenshots:

this looks familiar... DA-N

This officially dashes the hopes and dreams anyone had of this DLC being an online multi-player.  Just last weekend a friend and I were playing a little Valkyria Chronicles over a few cocktails wistfully discussing ways the game could be improved.  That’s not to say it’s flawed in any way, just that it has immense potential.  Online multi-player was definitely thrown around a lot.

I guess this DLC is nothing super exciting, but I am still glad I have a little more Valkyria Chronicles to play.
