This isn’t simply making the game “easier,” but more streamlined it fixes a broken system. Didn’t like how that worked out? Then change him back to a shocktrooper, or try something else. Want to make Kurt a sniper? You can, right away, without having to spend any points. In Valkyria 3, however, class changes can be done by any character at any time. This somewhat broken system led to a frustrating amount of badge grinding. The problem with the second game’s system was that changing classes required spending “badges,” which were earned almost completely at random among battle participants. The second featured a deeper class system and enables class changes and upgrades among individual members, in addition to the first game’s EXP system.
As players may recall, the first game had players using EXP to give all-encompassing level-ups to all members of any given class, which worked well enough. Soldier progression in Valkyria Chronicles 3 is the best it’s been in the series.

(After clearing either battle A or battle B, the unpicked fight will become unavailable, because doing both would be nonsensical Back to the Future fodder.) This is a welcome touch of non-linearity for a series that hasn’t had much of it. The player can look over the terrain, enemies, items up for grabs and winning conditions before choosing, but only one path can be picked. For example, sometimes there will be options like “Cut the enemy off and fight head on, in the woods” appearing on the map as A, whereas battle B is “Go around the hills and meet them in town” or some similar scenario.
One could replay skirmishes, and in the epilogue could redo story battles, but never were there two clearly different paths before the player. In the first two games, the story battles happened at set times and places, and that was that. Players will often be given options as to what course of action they’d prefer en route to the story goal - something completely new to the series. At the end of a chapter, players are presented with a new map featuring a different part of the war zone, but at any time between segments, one can turn back to previous maps and replay its skirmish or story scenes. Things must move in chronological order though, so not all cutscenes or battles will be immediately available. Each chapter begins with a section of a map, upon which a home base, battle locations, and story points are marked. While the first game used a story book as its base of navigation, and the second went with an overhead view of a military school campus, the third now goes with maps of battlefields. This is partially thanks to the quality of Sega’s concept, but also thanks to new twists that continue to keep things fresh. It’s fun, it’s addictive, and just like before, it’s easy to sink in a lot of hours without regretting a moment. The first game put a genre-changing spin on tactical RPGs, and the sequels thankfully haven’t looked back. Outside missions, the player characters rest in a camp, where units can be customized and character growth occurs.The main attraction to Valkyria Chronicles 3 is the same thing it’s been in all Valkyria games: the battle system. The route to each story location on the map varies depending on an individual player’s approach: when one option is selected, the other is sealed off to the player. The player progresses through a series of linear missions, gradually unlocked as maps that can be freely scanned through and replayed as they are unlocked. Employing the same fusion of tactical and real-time gameplay as its predecessors, the story runs parallel to the first game and follows the “Nameless”, a penal military unit serving the nation of Gallia during the Second Europan War that performs black ops.
Released in January 2011 in Japan, it is the third game in the Valkyria Chronicles series. Valkyria Chronicles 3: Extra Edition is a tactical role-playing video game co-developed by Sega and Media.Vision for the PlayStation Portable.
