Nippon Ichi Software has released the fifth official trailer for Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny, which introduces the strategy RPG‘s story and characters.
Here is a summary of the game’s story, via its official website:
Zed is a boastful zombie who wallows on the lowest rung on the Netherworld ladder alongside his sister Bieko. When a God of Destruction threatens their way of (un)life, Zed must harness his unique ability of Super Reincarnation to stand against the approaching menace. Along the way, he will unite with twisted and colorful denizens of the Netherworld, face challenges around and within, and see if even an undying hooligan like himself can defy the odds!
Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny unites a grim yet touching story with insane tactical combat, while introducing gameplay elements never before seen in previous installments. As a result, new and returning players alike can craft a truly memorable and unique journey through the Netherworld. Bring the pain in battle with special attacks and support from a plethora of ally units. Customizable settings such as Auto, Retry, and Replay allow both hardcore and casual players to fight their own way. And should things take a terrible turn, use Super Reincarnation to rejoin the fight and keep trying until you succeed. This truly is a Netherworld fit for everyone!
Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny is due out for PlayStation 4 and Switch on January 28, 2021 in Japan, and for Switch in summer 2021 in North America and Europe. A demo is available now in Japan. Read more about the game here, here, here, and here.
