As far as the base formula goes, this title proposes the same excellent gameplay of VC1, but expanded in several ways that make it interesting and refreshing even for returning players, and surely great for newcomers.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
57 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Combat is quite strategic and deep: mechanics such as interception fire, cover, group movement, commander orders, armor penetration, critical hits and more all present and fundamental to success.
Characters

46 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Well designed and diverse roster of characters to fill your platoon, and with more personality thanks to the addition of squad stories.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
41 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Excellent cel-shading graphics resembling much a comic, with also good art style of models, environments and cutscenes.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Valkyria Chronicles is a turn-based tactics RPG set in an alternate reality WW2-esque setting, featuring a unique, hybrid take on gameplay and combat, a standout aesthetic/visual style, an engaging story with a good variety of missions, a large cast of fun characters of varying quality with a decent amount of playstyles and synergies, and a great OST.
