Janine Hawkins, Polygon. 4.5/10 https://www.polygon.com/2017/6/27/15878724/valkyria-revolution-review "Valkyria Revolution tries valiantly to weave a tale of political intrigue, but it's undermined by repetitive mission design, poor menus, and an anonymous cast. If you were hoping for a worthy successor to Valkyria Chronicles, you will be sadly disappointed." Kat Bailey, USGamer. 2/5 http://www.usgamer.net/articles/valkyria-revolution-review-war-crimes "Sega doesn't know what to do with Valkyria Chronicles, and after playing Revolution, I don't either."
