Disgaea D2: A brighter Darkness PS3

The newest installment of the fan-favorite strategy RPG series, Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness, is being released on the PlayStation 3 this fall in North America and Europe. Celebrating the 20th year of Nippon Ichi Software and 10th anniversary of the Disgaea series, Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness brings back the popular trio from the first game: Laharl, Etna, and Flonne!

With a completely new and original storyline, it offers game system refinements that will entice new fans, while still offering the same kind of hardcore, over-the-top, endless gameplay that is sure to please longtime fans! Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness will also feature various DLC to keep entertaining players for even more sleepless nights this fall!

Etna

Laharl’s feisty and disrespectful vassal, Etna was taken in by Laharl’s father at a young age and deeply respected him -- Laharl, not so much. She serves Laharl more out of a sense of duty to his father rather than any kind of loyalty to him.
Etna’s tongue is sharp, and so is her spear – it’s always better to avoid being on the receiving end of either!

Flonne

Originally an angel, Flonne was turned into a Fallen Angel after the events of the Disgaea 1.
In spite of her new “evil” title and attire, Flonne is still very much a kindhearted girl who hasn’t given up on trying to teach the demons of the Netherworld about the importance of love.
She has also planted a flower garden in Laharl’s castle, much to his dismay.

Lahari

The son of a famous and powerful Overlord, Laharl spent the events of the first Disgaea trying to make a name for himself after his father dies. At the end of that game, he finally succeeds in becoming an Overlord.
Unfortunately, the only ones who seem to know this are a few demons and some higher-ups in the heavenly realm of Celestia.
Laharl is self-centered and selfish and wants to make everyone in the Netherworld and Celestia know once and for all what a powerful Overlord he really is!

Sicily

Sicily is an angel girl who shows up one day in the mail (so she wouldn’t get lost) at Laharl’s castle and calls him “big brother.” She follows the team around insisting this, but none of them believe her.
She is good at cooking and especially enjoys making sweets.
She also appears to have designs on Laharl’s throne...

About the game:
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...
