SquareEnix have today announces that Nippon Ichi Software's
Disgaea DS will be released by SquareEnix across PAL territories
in Spring 2009, exclusively
on
the NintendoDS system.
Simple yet highly addictive, Disgaea DS is an updated
portable version of the classic Strategy Role-Playing Game
Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, previously available on the
PlayStation2. Since its release Disgaea has won over a loyal
following of fans that have grown to love the quirky humour and
deep, long-lasting challenge.
Disgaea DS doesn't just let you take the Disgaea
madness on the road, but introduces exciting innovations such as the
new duel system multiplayer, complete with masses of customisable
rules and game options. You'll also be able to connect to your
friend's NintendoDS to swap and share items, take your battles to a
new strategic level with Geo Cubes and there's an added exclusive
new story mode dedicated to Etna and her quest to become Beauty
Queen Ultimate Overlord.
John Yamamoto, president and chief executive officer of SquareEnix
Ltd. comments, "I am delighted that we are able to bring Disgaea
DS to players in Europe and PAL territories. Nippon Ichi has
created a game perfectly suited for portable play that will
entertain and challenge in equal measure."
The Netherworld – a place darker than a pitch-black cave, located
deeper than the depths of the seas. It is a cursed land where evil
reigns and foul beings dwell. Nobody knows its whereabouts, but
everybody fears its existence…
The story takes place two years after the death of King Krichevskoy,
the ruler of the Netherworld. His son Laharl slept for two full
years, unaware of his father's death, while demons fought for
supremacy over the Netherworld. With the help of his vassal Etna and
her underlings, the egocentric, megalomaniac Prince Laharl fights
his way to become the next king. |
