Valkyria Chronicles Series Gets a Piano Album in June
While still a fairly recent game, Valkyria Chronicles is often considered a classic by the few that played it (myself included). Though I may have mixed feelings about the sequel, I have nothing but excitement for Basiscape’s announcement of a Valkyria Chronicles series piano album.
The CD will feature ten tracks performed by Australian pianist Casey Ormond. We may not even have the third game in the states yet, but on June 30th we’ll be able to hear select songs from the whole series arranged for piano. There aren’t listings just yet, but look for it at your importer of choice soon!
