NIS Bringing 3 RPG’s to North America and Europe in 2013 – Disgaea D2, Time & Eternity, The Guided Fate Paradox

NIS has been churning out RPGs for many years, and last night at a press event, they showed off three new RPGs that will be making their way to North America and Europe in 2013, which we’ve detailed below.

Disgaea Dimension 2: A Brighter Darkness (PS3) – Fall 2013 (NA & EU)

A Brighter Darkness is helping to celebrate the 20th year of NIS and the 10 year anniversary of the Disgaea series. Back from the first game, Laharl, Etna, and Flonne, Disgaea D2 features a new storyline where Laharl is now a full-fledged Overlord in the Netherworld. Since many inhabitants of the Netherworld don’t see him as Overlord, he sets out to earn their respect, while meeting many characters along the way.

Here’s a breakdown of some of the features you can expect from the game:

  • Enhanced Customization: The character creation system has been completely revamped to allow for the highest level of character customization in series history!
  • Master/Pupil System: The player chooses the master and the pupil, as well as which skills to learn! Benefits include new skills and higher weapon proficiencies for the pupil, while the master gets a stat boost!
  • Item World: Challenge this battleground to power up your weapons, items, and characters! Prepare to deal massive damage!
  • Geo Panels: These status-altering blocks provide bonuses or detriments to the terrain! Change the tide of battle by skillfully manipulating these elemental icons!
  • Reunite with old friends and meet a new crew: Bringing back the fan favorite trio of Laharl, Etna, and Flonne, with new characters and a brand-new story!
