Valis III (ヴァリスⅢ Varisu Surī?) is an action-platformer video game developed by Telenet Japan and originally released for the PC Engine Super CD-ROM² on September 7, 1990 in Japan.[1] It was later released for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis in 1991 both in Japan and North America, and for the TurboGrafx-CD in 1992 in North America. It is the third game in the Mugen Senshi Valis series and once again features Yuko Ahso as the lead character. She is also joined by her twin sister, Valna, and a young Vecanti warrior named Cham who are playable characters.

[edit] Description
Somewhere in the Dark World, evil rears its ugly head once again...
A black-hearted man named Glames, possessor of a sword named Leethus, threatens the Human World, the Dream World, and the Dark World with complete and utter destruction. A young girl from the Dark World named Cham escapes from Glames, and seeks help to destroy him.
She comes to the Human World, searching for the Valis Warrior, Yuko Ahso, and more importantly, the Valis Sword.
Yuko must now help Cham defeat Glames before the three worlds are torn apart!
New improvements over the previous two Valis games include 3 playable characters, 3 unique weapons for each character, and greater, more powerful magic spells.
[edit] Trivia
- There is also a fourth installment in the series, M'aider Maiden, which was apparently not released for any Sega platform of the day.
- Only Valis I and Valis III made it to the Genesis, as well as Syd of Valis, a super-deformed version of Valis II. Valis II, itself, was only released on the PC Engine, and Valis IV was released on the PC Engine and SNES.
