NIS America has revealed Disgaea Mayhem, an action RPG spinoff of the popular turn-based strategy RPG series. It is expected to launch globally sometime this summer for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 1 & 2, and PC via Steam.
A trailer accompanied the announcement, showcasing bombastic action, combat tricks galore, and a large helping of oversized damage numbers. Check it out below!
Disgaea Mayhem Announcement Trailer
Disgaea Mayhem puts players in the role of mercenary N.A. who has been sent to recover a delicious flan by Princess Tichelle. In that dessert-dominated pursuit, N.A. will lay waste to hordes of enemies in real-time combat, switching between seven weapon styles to bring many a beatdown. For a deeper dive into what to expect from the game, check out a synopsis below:
The princess needs her pudding in this brand new take on the venerated Disgaea franchise. Take direct control of the action as N.A., a mercenary with a discerning sweet tooth, as you mow down monsters in the name of money.
Equip weapons from seven different classes to play in seven different ways! Whether you want to use the tried-and-true sword or the ranged bow, you can always switch your weapon to switch up the way you play!
The more things Magichange, the more they stay the same! Grind levels, improve your equipment, and pass new bills at the Dark Chocolate Assembly to make the numbers go up until you’re dealing a million damage with every hit! You can even recruit classic demons like the Prinny to bring along with you!
It’s time to experience Disgaea in a whole new way!
Magichange into Action: Take direct control of the combat in this action RPG spinoff of the Disgaea series! Beat down hundreds of enemies with classic Disgaea weapons, including the sword, gun, fist, and axe!
Grind Up to Get Down: It wouldn’t be Disgaea without the ability to get stronger. Head to the Item World to power up your equipment, reincarnate for higher base stats, or grind out levels to make sure you’re at the top of the food chain!
Satisfy Her Cravings: It takes a demon to feed a princess! Princess Tichelle loves her flan, and N.A. loves a paycheck. By working together, they can both get what they want! Dessert brings people (and demons) together in this light-hearted tale.
