Valkyria Chronicles III: Unrecorded Chronicles is a tactical role-playing game being developed and published by Sega for the PlayStation Portable. It is the third game in the Valkyria Chronicles series and is due for release on January 27, 2011 in Japan.

Occurring in the same time frame as the first game, Valkyria Chronicles III is a side story that follows the exploits of an unwanted and castigated Gallian Army squad during the Imperial invasion of 1935.

Features

• Gameplay for Valkyria Chronicles III is mostly the same as its predecessors. The player takes control of individual units during their turn, moving them on the battlefield strategically. Moving each unit uses one Command Point and when all Command Points are used the player's turn is over.
• A major change to the BLiTZ combat system is the addition of the SP (Special Points) system which allows characters to use special abilities.
• The protagonist, Kurt, has Direct Command which allows him to direct two units that also renders them immune to enemy fire for its duration,
• Riela can transform into a Valkyria which makes her invulnerable with access to a powerful beam attack that can take down even tanks, and Imca has Open Fire which damages all enemies in her immediate line of sight.
• Some major changes have also been done to character growth and customization. Similar to Avan, the main character of Valkyria Chronicles II, every character can now change to any class by changing their weapon. However, each character does have their own specialty and thus earn bonuses when kept in a certain class.
• Character leveling has also been revamped. While the previous games had the player upgrade each class individually now the squad as a whole is upgraded by leveling up five different attributes. Each character also has a branching, board-like growth system called the Master Board. Through this the player can have each character learn specific Potentials (character abilities that can buff or debuff the unit) to customize the unit.
