Several trailers have been released for Disgaea 6, and the most recent one revealed its release date of June 29th. The quirky and cult-classic Disgaea series has run for nearly twenty years, and the next installment features some new things like 3D graphics. Announcing the release date so close seems to hint that Nippon Ichi is confident the game will be able to release on time, which comes as good news to fans of the SRPG series. The series has maintained a strong following over the years and that fanbase will be glad to have the game release on time.

Hoping For a Timely Release For Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny
The main factor pointing towards a timely release worldwide for Disgaea 6 is that the game has already released in Japan. Localization can be a lengthy process, especially as many countries still observe Covid-19 safety regulations, but this is a pretty good indicator that the game will be ready in time. With games like God of War Ragnarok seeming less and less likely to drop in 2021, this is welcome news for fans of Disgaea. More and more information like new Disgaea trailers and details coming at a steady pace, which is another contrast to games that have been delayed time and again over the past year.
With Disgaea 6 releasing so much information in a short time, like explaining changes to the Reincarnation system for new protagonist Zed, it speaks to the publisher’s confidence that the game will be ready in time. Other titles like the aforementioned God of War Ragnarok have been incredibly sparse with details as worries about delays grow.
Since being revealed, Disgaea 6 has generated buzz from its long-time fans who are likely eager for its release on the Switch. But it is worth noting that, while it seems likely to release on time, there isn’t any guarantee. Delays have become so common that fans wouldn’t be surprised to receive bad news about Disgaea 6. Hopefully, the factors pointing toward an as-scheduled release will prove true. The short window between announcement and release, steady release of information, and publisher confidence all point toward Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny being able to break a trend that many fans have come to expect.
Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny is set to release on June 29th, 2021 for the Nintendo Switch.
