A PS3 exclusive is currently available for an unbelievably low price on the PlayStation Store, but the deal is only available until January 18. After this date, the price will return to its normal value.
While PS3 games aren’t directly available on the PS5 version of the PlayStation Store, the remastered version of the game, released on PS4, is available through backward compatibility on PS5.
The game in question is Valkyria Chronicles, a military-themed tactical RPG from Sega, first released in 2008 as a PS3 exclusive. It was a standout title during a year packed with major releases like Grand Theft Auto IV and Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.
Despite being overshadowed by bigger titles, Valkyria Chronicles garnered critical praise and eventually led to a series of sequels and spin-offs.
The remastered version of Valkyria Chronicles, released for PS4 in 2016, is currently on sale for just $3.99 on the PlayStation Store. This is an 80% discount, the biggest the game has ever received. This sale offers an excellent opportunity for newcomers and longtime fans alike to experience the game.
The story of Valkyria Chronicles is set in the year 1935 E.C., during a war between the East Europan Imperial Alliance and the Atlantic Federation. Players follow Lieutenant Welkin Gunther and his squad as they defend the neutral Principality of Gallia from the invading Empire.
For a limited time, this remastered classic is available for a fraction of its usual price, making it a must-grab for fans of tactical RPGs.
