Valkyrie Elysium Gets Free November Update Post-Launch

Square Enix and Soleil have announced new modes and difficulties for the upcoming action RPG Valkyrie Elysium, and they’re all free.

Once the game is out on September, players will get the following update in early November:

• “Hilde’s Vengeance” – A new mode in which you play as Hilde, which offers a new action experience compared to playing as the Valkyrie, including shadow attacks, Hilde’s dedicated skill tree, and more.
• Seraphic Gate – High difficulty time attack battles unlocked after clearing the main story. Each tier restricts the weapons and skills that can be used, and has special rewards for clearing every battle.
• New Difficulty Settings: “Very Hard / Valkyrie” – The new difficulties “Very Hard” and “Valkyrie,” which are for players who want to enjoy a more difficult level of action.

Valkyrie Elysium will be out for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 on 29 September. The PC version will be out on 11 November, which will already have the aforementioned updates. For more on the next Valkyrie game, check out our hands-on preview here.
