Idea Factory International has released the opening movie and new set of screenshots for Dark Rose Valkyrie.
The screenshots highlight the game’s interview system, in which players must get testimony about a character to find out whether they’re lying about a certain topic. As you question each person, you can get proof to corroborate or expose their testimony using special interview skills. You are given a set amount of questions you can ask, meaning you can either choose one question to ask multiple people, or use all your questions on one person. Once you gather all the information you need, you will compile it into a report and declare who the liar is (if there is a liar). Rewards come in the form of currency, items, and more.
Dark Rose Valkyrie is due out for PlayStation 4 on June 6 in North America and June 9 in Europe.
