Perhaps you really enjoyed Sega's much-loved RPG Valkyria Chronicles on PS3, or have a PSP instead and were interested in it -- either way, a sequel is now in the making, this one exclusive to Sony's handheld but not to Japan, which should come as welcome news if you fit into either aforementioned category.

While we're here, Sega would like to thank you guys for your dedication and support for the series: "This one goes out to all of you," reads their blog. Aw, shucks.

Valkyria Chronicles II will be created by the same team as for the first title, taking place shortly afterwards plotwise.

The year is 1937 EC.

Two years later, the ashes of the Second Europan war still glow in Gallia’s history. But even peace is a fragile happiness - and hearts that once fought side by side are not forever friends.

In the midst of this peace appears a group known as the Gallian Revolutionary Army, swearing to topple the current government - in a lightning fast coup, they arm themselves with the best of both Gallian technology and soldiers.

What was once a small but strong unified country is instantly plunged back onto the battlefield. But the day and age of the last war’s heros is already fading out - with families to protect and children to raise, they are the ones who must now be protected. While numbers split and tensions rise, the spotlight shines to a handful of up-and-coming students at a Gallian Military Academy.

As civil war begins to rage across the country, morality and war clash with passion and ideals. But this time the distinction between blue and red is not so simple - nor will it ever be. Gallia once stood as a defiant beacon of hope against a giant empire… but can the country now defend against it’s own?

Not much else in the way of details yet, as the game is early in development, but we can say fans won't have too long to wait. Until next time!
