Marvelous has propped up some new gameplay for Valkyrie Drive on YouTube.

It's roots in Senran Kagura is evident from the combat system to the animations and character design, but the key difference seems to be found in the Drive Modes, where one girl transforms into a weapon for the other to use. I suppose this mixes moveset on the fly, just like other musou games that allow multiple characters (like in Samurai Warriors 4)

*EDIT* I'm clearly not paying attention as there isn't any Drive Change weapon style change-ups in this gameplay video... It's more of a power up, just like Senran Kagura.

Check out the gameplay below. It looks super crisp and runs silky smooth!

*EDIT* Updated with unofficial mirror to video, since Marvelous' channel was closed.

Furthermore, some English Troph-dawgs have appeared, which usually signifies that a localization is underway. The Vita still lives, it seems!

It's odd to me new games keep being made for the vita. Looks cool at least and seems less musou than I thought it would. On a sale maybe.

If that is what friendship looks like, then I really don't understand why guys constantly complain about being put in the friend zone.

The world reminds me off the Heavy Metal boob planet hallucinations from South Park.

Oddly enough the video isn't available anymore. The account has been closed because it's against YouTube's Policy on "gaming"??

Is this it? Are all video game videos finally getting taken down in one fell swoop?
