I was a huge fan of Disgaea (just read my review of the fifth game here) series, so I think it is very cool to hear that Disgaea is coming to a new platform - the PC.
Here's the press release:
It is the rebirth of an era. NIS America is extremely proud and excited to announce that fans old and new will finally have the chance to experience the strategy title that catapulted Nippon Ichi Software, Inc. to their position as the most prolific Strategy RPG developer in the world: Disgaea—as Disgaea PC will be available on Steam worldwide in early 2016!
About the story: In a world where all the rules are reversed and the demons rule, you may find yourself questioning your allegiance to ‘the light’ and rooting for the Netherworld’s most neglected antihero. Two years after the death of his father, Overlord Krichevskoy, the demon prince Laharl awakens to discover that the Netherworld is in turmoil. With unlikely allies, his devious vassal Etna and the angel trainee Flonne, he must battle his way to supremacy to retake the throne and become the next Overlord. Experience the SRPG classic, now on PC!
Features: Optimized for PC: The development team has taken special care to optimize the world of Disgaea for the PC with support for a myriad of screen sizes, new keyboard and mouse controls, updated tile textures, as well as an optimized user interface.
The Definitive Version of the First Disgaea: This slick revival includes all the content of the original game, Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, as well as content like Etna Mode that was added to its PSP® port! For new players, and fans of the series alike, this will be the version to have in your collection.
All new Steam integrations: With the jump to Steam, Disgaea PC now includes extras such as Steam Achievements to compete with your friends, Cloud Saves, Badges and trading cards. Now hitting level 9999 isn’t just a personal moment of pride, it’ll be one you can share.
