Title: 6 year old JRPG tops Steam Charts amidst AAA title launch
Post by: Mr. Analog on November 14, 2014, 10:09:49 AM
VALKYRIA CHRONICLES was released to the PS3 about 6 years ago and wasn't exactly a big hit and sort of disappeared in the mists of time. On Monday SEGA released a PC remake on Steam and much to everyone's surprise, it not only got rave reviews but topped the charts for several days, beating out AAA titles like Assassin's Creed Unity, HALO, COD Advanced Warfare and hotly awaited indie sequels like Binding of Isaac 2, 5 Nights at Freddy's 2

Out of pure curiosity I checked it out, it actually looks like a really good alt-reality dieselpunk RPG, and of course the price was right ($22 CDN)

Talk about a dark horse!
