Nippon Ichi Software has released the first screenshots and trailer for their upcoming Playstation 3 game, Disgaea Dimension 2, both of which you can see below.

This info comes via NIS's official website, which just now launched.

One sad thing to keep in mind: this is not Disgaea 5.

One great thing to keep in mind: Disgaea D2 has some of the most beloved characters in the franchise.

Disgaea D2 is a direct follow up to the first Disgaea game, and follows Prince Laharl as he finally becomes the Overlord in his late father's place. The arrogant new demon king--along with his demon, angel and monster friends--sets out on a new adventure wrought with the typical tongue-in-cheek dark humor and over-the-top SRPG elements the series is known for. Disgaea D2 also has a mystery character (whose silhouette can be seen in our gallery, and whose identity is to be revealed in the coming weeks) and a special Limited Edition that includes a hardcover art book, a soundtrack, and PSN codes.

Expect to see Etna, Flonne, and the Prinnies (Dood!) this March 20, 2013, in Japan (and don't be surprised to see it come stateside, soon after).
