Today Square Enix announced it will bring both Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride and Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume stateside early next year. Hand of the Heavenly Bride is another remake from Square Enix's RPG stable. Dragon Quest V was not originally released in North America, but fans will finally get their chance to play it on February 17, 2009.
The latest Valkyrie Profile is a turn-based strategy game that really impressed us at this year's Tokyo Game Show. Covenant of the Plume, the third entry in this series, borrows from Norse mythology and reveals the origins of the franchise. It will be released on March 17, 2009.
