Like most battle royale games, Spellbreak drops a large number of players into an arena which slowly shrinks over time with the last surviving team declared the winner. Players can choose from one of six classes wind, fire, ice, lightning, stone and toxic, which will determine their primary attack type. Elements from different gauntlets can be combined to make spells more powerful, provide crowd control effects, or reduce others, depending on strategic desires.

Two sequels were released for PlayStation Portable, Sony's handheld gaming console: Valkyria Chronicles II in 2010, and Valkyria Chronicles III in 2011. Valkyria Chronicles is a tactical role-playing game in which the player uses a unique turn-based battle system called BLiTZ (Battle of Live Tactical Zones). During their turn the player views an overhead map in Command Mode, but zooms in to control each individual unit on the battlefield in Action Mode. Taking command of individual units during the player's phase costs Command Points, which can be used dynamically to grant movement to many different units or the same unit consecutively with diminishing AP reserve, depending on what the player wants to accomplish.
