Disgaea 6 is a thing and it is in development. The president of NIS Sohei Niikawa talks to Famitsu about the new game in an interview. Below are a few details from the interview from the article.
- The production of Disgaea 6 was decided in 2018, but the actual work on it started in the second half of 2019.
- When the development of Disgaea 6 was decided, there wasn’t enough info on the PS5, and the hardware’s release date was still unknown, so NIS had to pass on the platform for the time being. The current goal is to simultaneously release the game on PS4 and Switch.
- To prevent the Disgaea from going stale and losing interest from the fans, Nippon Ichi Software aimed to bring three major changes in Disgaea 6:
- The first is the 3D visuals for the characters.
- The second is the change in play value. Whether you’re playing for a short or prolonged period, the developers want players to feel a sense of accomplishment and exhilaration. For that reason, it will be a lot easier to level up and the level cap has risen. Up until now, the goal was to reach Lv. 9999, but this time, you’ll start at Lv. 9999.
- The third is in the ease of play. Since the lifestyle of players has changed, the developers made the extra challenges and such something that fits today’s age. So functions such as double speed mode, auto-battle, auto-play were added.
- The Battle Speed Boost feature from the smartphone version was very well-received.
- AI Edit function added.
- Sohei Niikawa: “We weren’t trying to go with the current trend for the theme, but it is isekai reincarnation [laughs].”
- Your party dies each time it challenges the God of Destruction but becomes stronger with each reincarnation for the next challenge against the God of Destruction.
- There are other familiar elements from past installments as well as other new elements that have yet to be revealed.
- Development is currently at 90% complete.
