- UPDATE[12]//Patch 0.13.0.0 - 31 March 2023
Greetings, Principals! You should read about this update because it’s an important one. We’re adding a new dungeon to the game, and it’s not just any regular dungeon, Principals! To reach this location, you must go through a portal in the lava fields. However, the portal is locked until you complete a certain quest. Once you finish the quest, the portal to the dungeon will open, and its location will be marked on your map as the Sky Castle in the sky of Valthiria, the final dungeon of Valthiria Arc: Hero School Story 2. As the final dungeon of the game, this place will be filled with the strongest monsters in Valthiria you have ever encountered, and it’s also the battlefield for fighting the game’s final boss! Therefore, make the best preparations possible, Principals! Choose your students and teach them well because this is the battle that will determine the future of Valthiria! This u…
- Update [11]//Patch 0.12.0.0 - 1 March 2023
We’ve got other students coming, Principals. And one of them is not even a human! Meet Zero Four and Kayla Palmer. Zero Four is a sentient arcstone-powered automaton built to replace heroes. Despite their slender physique, Zero Four can beat all monsters in Valthiria, even those who create trouble for professional heroes. However, without an official hero license, Zero Four can’t become a professional hero. To obtain the necessary license, they have come to your academy. The mastermind behind this remarkable creation is Kayla Palmer, a young inventor from Chernov. After her past tragedy, she has dedicated her life to designing machines capable of replacing heroes. She comes to your academy to witness Zero Four's triumph over fellow students and become the best hero Valthiria has ever seen. See their action in this video! Being a hero involves more than just defeating monsters. So, can y…

- Update [9]//Patch 0.10.0.0 - 27 December 2022
It's the holiday season, Principals! We have one more update before we say goodbye to 2022. Sometimes, the best course of action is not to charge into battle but instead to take a step back and reevaluate the situation. Retreating does not mean you have lost; rather, it shows that you understand your own limitations and are willing to take the time to gain more strength. That is why we have added the “Escape” feature! With this feature, you can flee from the battle and rethink your strategy or return to learn more and level up your skills. Apart from the “Escape” feature, we also made several improvements in the 0.10.0.0, including: Revamped battle UI Improved button prompts for the controller New confirmation pop-ups on several screens More new animations on the party selection screen New graduation cinematic sequence That’s all for this update, Principals! We are getting closer to the…
- Update [8]//Patch 0.9.0.0 - 30 November 2022
Hello, Principals! We got some updates for you! A new champion has arrived in Valthiria! He’s a bard named Emerson Lake. Wait a minute, a bard? Why did he even go to a hero academy? Emerson wants to find an art treasure that has been lost for a long time, but one of the necessary conditions to find the treasure is that he needs to have the values of a hero. He comes from a family of prosperous merchants who measure success solely by money, and his family sees his dedication to art as a waste. Can Emerson prove to his family that success is not only measured by material things? Curious to see Emerson in action? Check out this teaser video! You can enjoy the adventure of Emerson and other champions with a gamepad. Yup, VAHSS2 can now also be played with a gamepad controller! Although it's still an early build, we ensure it won't disrupt your fun. But if you experience some inconveniences,…

- Update [7]//Patch 0.8.0.0 and Console Announcement - 31 October 2022
Hi Principals! We are back with another exciting update for you. Latest Update Ver 0.8.0.0 Things are getting a little hotter in Valthiria—all thanks to a recently discovered Hidden Dungeon. With glassy obsidian, rough pumice, and molten lava all around, this hidden dungeon might be too hot to handle, except for the future heroes from the Academy. Just remind your students: “don’t play with fire”! With the discovery of the fiery dungeon, it became clearer that Valthiria is not entirely free of danger. Monsters show up now and then, deterring the residents of Valthiria from solo travel. To help ease the residents of Valthiria, the Academy offers a solution: Escort Mission! With students as bodyguard-slash-companion, travelers could be safe from various monsters that lurks in the forest. And maybe from a loneliness, too. No judgement. Be careful though, as every traveler will take a space…

- Update [6]//Patch 0.7.0.0 - 30 September 2022
Greetings, Principals, and...Lady Principals! One of the most-awaited updates, we’re excited to announce that the female principal is finally ready to join the Academy! We recognize that having this choice is an important thing for our players, so we hope this option will enhance your playing experience even more. Ever heard about “strike the first blow”? Now in battle, delivering the first strike will give you an advantage! Every time you manage to strike an enemy first, another student in the party will immediately dish out a second attack, giving you a notable head start in the battle. You can maximize this advantage by finding the right formation for your party. And last buat not least: the principal isn’t the only new character in this update. We also added two new champions. Meet: Tiana Cherenkov and Chad Donnervogel! They have different outlooks on life, and they are eager to pro…

- Update [5]//Patch 0.6.0.0 - 2 September 2022
Hiya Principals! We have another update today, and you can bet that this one is going to make your day! Winter has arrived in Valthiria, and the queendom is overjoyed! It's usually a time for hot drinks, staying indoors, and bundling up—but of course, you can’t just laze around in the Academy. Behold: the Snowman Building minigame! In this new minigame, the leisure activity of making snowmen is turned into yet another learning opportunity—designed to train champions to notice and remember things quickly. Or at least someone said so. It might be useful in a fight, yeah? Maybe? We don’t know, you’re the principal! Get your students ready for fresh snow, frozen fingers, and another reason for fun, um, learn—in the Academy! You can learn from anywhere, but the fancier the place, the better! That’s why in this update, we also added a “bulding upgrade” feature for the facilities of the Academ…
