Sega will soon unveil its latest addition to the Valkyria video game series. Fans of the role-playing video game are looking forward to Nov. 20 for the reveal of the "Valkyria Project."

The video game company made the announcement via Twitter recently. There is also a teaser content posted on the official website of the "Valkyria" video game series. Apart from revealing the Nov. 20 The post presents six silhouettes, believed to be the main characters of the game. There is still no information from Sega on whether the characters represent previous characters or new ones.

The tactical role-playing video game was introduced in 2008 for PlayStation 3 with the "Valkyria Chronicles." Sega then developed new "Valkyria" video games for PlayStation Portable in 2010 and 2011. The first "Valkyria" game that came to PlayStation 4 is the "Valkyria Revolution" on Jan. 19.

According to DualShockers, Director Takeshi Ozawa of the "Valkyria Revolution" made a statement during an interview with 4Gamer about the future of "Valkyria." Ozawa said, "I hope that this will be a year (2017) in which the IP named Valkyria will further expanded as a result of the launch of Valkyria Revolution, and I hope to be able to tell something new in 2017."

Ozawa and Sega have fulfilled that statement with the new "Valkyria" game set to be announced soon. The official release date of the game has yet to be announced as well. 

The "Valkyria Revolution" video game received a 6 out of 10 score from IGN and 55% from Metacritic.

According to IGN, the storyline of "Valkyria Revolution" was well thought of, tackling a story about war. The plot starts with a Jutland student presenting a paper about "The Five Traitors" recognized during the war between the Ruzi Empire and Jutland. However, IGN also mentioned that the game lacked strategic element which is disappointing given its tactical gameplay.
