Square Enix Ltd., the publisher of Square Enix® interactive entertainment products in Europe and other PAL territories, today announces the forthcoming releases of VALKYRIE PROFILE®: LENNETH for the PlayStation® Portable system and VALKYRIE PROFILE 2: SILMERIA for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system.

John Yamamoto, president and chief executive officer of Square Enix Ltd. comments, “As two titles that are held in very high regard worldwide, we’re delighted to be bringing the VALKYRIE PROFILE series to Europe and hope for both games to enchant an entirely new audience.”
About VALKYRIE PROFILE: LENNETH
Players assume a pivotal role in determining the outcome of the largest battle in Norse Mythology. On the eve of Ragnarok, a battle between the warring factions of Aesir and Vanir, Lenneth is dispatched to the land of mortals in pursuit of worthy allies. Her mission is a crucial one that could possibly sway the tides of war in her faction's favor.
Approaching brave souls at the time of their death, Lenneth must convince these combatants to join her in the ultimate battle against evil. With time working against her, Lenneth must seek out, train and command an army of fallen soldiers in preparation for the final battle against Surt, the leader of the Vanir, while the mystery of Lenneth's identity unfolds.
Features
Special enhancements take advantage of the PSP system's capabilities — true 16:9 support and new CG sequences give players a deeper understanding of the plot and complement the game's dramatic storyline. Some of these new scenes contain links to the story of VALKYRIE PROFILE 2: SILMERIA.
Classic RPG in the palm of the hand — experience the adventure in the living room, on the road or outdoors
A heart-wrenching tale of honor, courage and purpose in the afterlife — follow the fallen heroes as they pursue honor in the next life
Time-based story progression breeds a non-linear experience where actions determine the outcome of Ragnarok — recruit well and Valhalla is saved, recruit poorly and destruction looms
Encounter 24 unique characters with deep levels of customization
Multiple endings that are revealed based on crucial world-altering decisions
