[Update] The Japanese Valkyrie Elysium trailer has leaked online and can be watched here. The trailer, which also features some new gameplay, confirms the September 29th release that is found on the PlayStation website listing.
[Original Story] Valkyrie Elysium will release this September worldwide, according to information that has surfaced online today.
According to a listing found on the official PlayStation website, the game will release on September 29th. As it is a Monday, however, it is likely that the actual release date will be September 30th in North America and Europe, as games generally do not release on Mondays in the West.
While the Valkyrie Elysium release date hasn't been confirmed officially, it won't take long to learn when the game will release on PC and PlayStation consoles, as a new trailer is set to go live in a few hours, at 5 PM PDT.

Valkyrie Elysium is a thrilling action RPG, incorporating the long-running Valkyrie series' signature combat system.
Based in Norse Mythology, the Valkyrie series follows the story of Valkyrie Lenneth and her mission to save Asgard from destruction. In this latest instalment, Odin, the All-Father, is forced to place the fate of the world in the hands of a new Valkyrie.
Using a variety of weapons, special techniques known as 'Divine Arts', spirit summons called Einharjar and finishing moves, this new Valkyrie must defeat powerful enemies in order to prevent Ragnarok.
Valkyrie Elysium boasts a unique art style that beautifully depicts a collapsing world caused by the onset of Ragnarok, and composer Motoi Sakuraba (Valkyrie, Tales, Star Ocean) returns to the series to create a captivating original soundtrack.
