Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth is a PlayStation Portable port of the original PlayStation video game Valkyrie Profile by tri-Ace (known for their Star Ocean series and recently Radiata Stories). The game was released on March 2, 2006 in Japan and was released in America on July 18, 2006. According to Electronic Gaming Monthly, the port of Lenneth was done by the Japanese developer TOSE.
The port is of the Japanese version and therefore does not have any of the improvements that the English version did. Such improvements were being able to adjust all your characters armor instead of just the battle party as well as being informed when you change Lenneth's weapon from a sword to a bow. The animation of Lezard's tower is not included.
New to the game is full motion video, replacing or adding to current scenes in the game. New scenes include Jelanda's transformation into a monster and the first meeting of Brahms while the kiss between Lucian and Lenneth before he is sent to Valhalla replaces the existing scene. All the FMVs are story events.
The English version of Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth uses an enhanced version of the original game's localization and reuses the original English voiceover track. Square Enix cleaned up the original game's English script and additional voice over dialogue for the CG movies was recorded by New Generation Pictures, rather than the original company, TAJ Productions.
Story
The story takes place in both Valhalla and Midgard as you control the main character, Lenneth (or Valkyrie), as she descends upon the human world to purify evil spirits and monsters and recruit fallen warriors (Einherjar) to fight in the coming battle of Ragnarok. Throughout the storyline, you will encounter many characters and learn of their stories. However, none is more melancholy than that of Lenneth herself as she begins to realize her missing memories.
The game contains additional scenes to help tie in the sequel. The only obvious one is the inclusion of an FMV that shows Alicia from Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria witnessing Barbarossa's execution.
