Atlus USA has continued their series of English character introduction videos for Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir by releasing the third video focusing on Velvet, the princess of the destroyed kingdom of Valentine. Velvet is a has a major role to play in the game’s events. She is the granddaughter of the mad King Valentine, princess of the destroyed kingdom Valentine, twin sister of Ingway, Demon Lord Odin’s first born, daughter of Princess Ariel, the older half-sister of Gwendolyn, and lover of the Pooka Prince, Cornelius.

Velvet has a deep-seated fear of her now-dead, abusive grandfather and hates her father, but, in spite of that, is a kind and determined person who would do anything for her loved ones, like Cornelius and Ingway. After the destruction of Valentine, Velvet flees to the Elrit Forest where she is on a quest to stop Armageddon. Unfortunately for her, the kingdoms in Erion are at war with each other, so it goes without saying that Velvet will have a date with destiny on her mission to save the world.

Escape from Tarkov is a hardcore story-driven MMO featuring elements of FPS and RPG. The events take place in the Russian city of Tarkov, which has been sealed off by roadblocks and sunk into the chaos of local warfare between private military companies.

You’ll make friends and then stab them in the back to further your own diabolical or benevolent ends. You’ll ultimately strike the balance between survival and conquest as you strive to expand your empire from the southern Badlands to the Northern Wastes.

But with expansion, comes the inevitable conflict and it’s on the battlefields of the Old World where you’ll hone your skills as a military tactician. Total War: WARHAMMER features breath-taking, real time battles, the likes of which have never been realised in a Warhammer video game. Huge flying monsters will swoop from the sky with deadly intent, reality itself will ripple with the winds of magic leaving destruction in their wake and amongst the rank and file troops, heroes will emerge on the battlefield to bring you glory.
