First look at Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice on PS3. Release date in August 2008
NIS America announced a while back that the Japanese Nippon Ichi-developed “Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice” PlayStation 3-exclusive single player game is coming to the USA in August 2008.
Disgaea 3 is a sequel to Disgaea, a hardcore, turn-based, strategy RPG popular on the PlayStation 2 and PSP. In Disgaea, character units have a limit to their movement and attack ranges, based on level and weapons equipped. There are other special game factors that let you take advantage of the 3D battle map, many of which are unique to Disgaea. One of the many new features to Disgaea 3 is the addition of a Geo Block, which creates a 3 dimensional battle instead of the traditional 2D. Much of Disgaea 3 is yet to be unveiled, but for now you can take a look at the Japanese version that was released back in January.
The intense strategy RPG will soon be on PS3:
Key Disgaea 3 features include:
* Geo Block — A cube-shaped terrain-altering object. Players can use it to access and attack enemies where normally they cannot reach.
* Geo Panel — A group of stat-altering elemental properties that are placed upon certain parts of the battlefield. When there are one or more colored panels on the battle grid, it means an element can affect that area. The effect can boost or reduce your unit’s stats.
* Item World — A special randomly-generated battle stage within each and every item you find. By defeating these special battle stages, you are able to strengthen your items.
