Valkyria Chronicles PS3 logo screenshotValkyria Chronicles for PS3 has gotten an official release date of November 11th, 2008 for the tactical RPG.

A few bits of new info have also been revealed regarding Sega’s Valkyria Chronicles. The game will include both the original Japanese voice overs track as well as the localized English voice track, for those who prefer to hear they’re RPG characters speak in their native Japanese with English subtitles.

It was also confirmed that the already released downloadable content in Japan will not be included on the actual game disc when the game launches in America. Which hopefully means we’ll still see the content in a digital download form of our own.

As far as the supposed PSP version is concerned, that actually came about due to a mistake during the Sony E3 2008 Pre-E3 Press Conference in which the in-game trailer was mistakingly shown on a PSP demo-reel. When asked if the developers will actually consider making a PSP version of the game, they sounded rather open to the idea, saying, “Well, you know, the response we got from that accidental announcement was very interesting. I’ll have to leave it at that for now”
