Celebrate the 10th Anniversary of ‘Disgaea’ with a new ‘D2’ Trailer!

Disgaea has an incredible amount of longevity. After the original on the PS2 received a huge cult following, leading to many disappointed late adopters who could only get their hands on one of the few copies released through inflated ebay auctions, the game received a huge reprint. As the old saying goes, the rest was history. Becoming a huge runaway success, the series has become one of the most popular strategy RPGs on the market, accompanied by multiple remakes, sequels and spinoffs.

2013 marks the 10 year anniversary of the original, and what better way to celebrate it than to revisit the original cast? Laharl, Flonne, Etna and her army of Prinnies are back in Disgaea D2, the first direct sequel in the franchise. Now that Laharl has successfully become the overlord of the Netherworld, what challenges will face him and his crew? Whatever they are, if the previous games are any indication, they’re sure to be charming, quirky and laugh out loud hilarious along the way.

I got the chance to try the game out, so stay tuned for my hands on impressions, Until then, check out the newest trailer for Disgaea D2 and keep an eye out for its release, exclusive to the Playstation 3, this fall.

About Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness:
The Netherworld — a place where might makes right and today’s friends are tomorrow’s enemies. After a long journey with many ups and downs, Laharl finally finds himself as a full-fledged Overlord. However, the other denizens of the Netherworld do not see him as such, so he sets out on a journey with his loyal(!?) vassals to receive the respect he deserves. Along the way, Laharl will meet a girl who claims to be his sister, demons with bigger than usual chips on their shoulders, and find out that even his own body holds a few surprises for him…
