'Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria' (PS2) Gets Euro Release Date

by Rainier on July 6, 2007 @ 3:12 p.m. PDT

Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria's captivating story takes place long before the events of Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth with ties to Norse mythology, producing a perfect synergy of exploration, plot development, fast paced action, and control multiple combatants with an innovative battle system.

Hundreds of years before Lenneth's tale, another saga lies concealed by the gods. The valkyrie Silmeria once served Odin loyally, but after an incident ignited a conflict between them, Odin forcefully reincarnated her as a human. The human soul that would carry her spirit was that of Alicia, Princess of Dipan. Ordinarily, Silmeria's consciousness would have been sealed, her spirit dormant until she was next summoned.

However, the forced transmigration causes Silmeria's spirit to awaken within Alicia, leaving two souls to inhabit a single body. The spirit that should have been sealed has awakened — a situation Odin will not ignore for long.
