Boy, Valhalla Knights: Eldar Saga sure sounds impressive, doesn’t it? The title makes it sound like a game that shouldn’t just be played, but conquered. There should be figures and books and a movie. It just sounds epic. Sadly, it’s not. This is a game that sucks the joy out of gaming, and that’s too bad, because there probably is something great here burried under the layers of muck.

A very promising partnership has just been formed between Marvelous Entertainment and XSEED Games. The two companies have decided to band together to bring more of Marvelous’ amazing games to North America.

The first game that will come from this partnership is the PSP game Valhalla Knights 2. It is the sequel to the first Valhalla Knights, which XSEED brought to North America in April 2007, and should be in stores before the end of fall 2008. Valhalla Knights 2 will feature plenty of new enemies, items, jobs, races and spells, as well as 2 player ad hoc co-op and versus multiplayer modes.
