With the release of Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny set for June 29, 2021, NIS America has revealed the Unrelenting and Limited editions of the game. Over the years, the Disgaea series has become a staple of the strategy RPG genre with its focus on level grinding and unique stat growth mechanics. Featuring 3D visuals for the first time in the series, fans are excited to experience a new adventure on the Nintendo Switch.
There are currently two different special editions of Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny available for pre-order from NIS America. The physical edition of Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny is called the Unrelenting Edition and can be found at select retailers. The Limited edition of Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny is available exclusively on NIS America and features a number of extra bonuses.
Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny Unrelenting Edition
The default physical retail copy for Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny is called the Unrelenting Edition and includes a few pre-order bonuses. Fans who pre-order the Unrelenting Edition will receive a digital download code for the "Defiance of Dissonance" soundtrack, a mini art book titled "Behind the Seams" and a reversible cover sheet for the game case. The Unrelenting Edition of Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny will cost $59.99 USD ($79.99 CAD).
It is currently available to be pre-ordered at Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop/EB Games, and other select retailers.
Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny Limited Edition
On the other hand, fans of Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny looking for more pre-order bonuses can opt for the Limited Edition. This exclusive edition includes upgraded items from the Unrelenting Edition including a physical version of the "Defiance of Dissonance" soundtrack on CD, a hardcover edition of the "Behind The Seams" art book, and a steelbook for the game. A number of unique bonuses are also available in the Limited Edition including the "Stitched Together" pin set featuring Zed, Bieko, and Cerberus, a 28" x 40" "Roll Call" cloth poster, and a collector's box.
The Limited Edition of Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny is available exclusively on the NIS America site for the North American and European regions and costs $99.99 USD or £74.99. The European pre-order site for Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny mentions that the Unrelenting Edition will be inside the Limited Edition so this will likely be the case for American pre-orders as well though it isn't clarified on the American site.
Digital Pre-order Bonuses and Switch Exclusivity
Currently, Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny doesn't offer any digital pre-order bonuses and it isn't up for pre-order yet on the Nintendo eShop. Based on the release of Disgaea 5, pre-order bonuses might be limited since the only bonus at launch was a bunny suit DLC for Seraphine when players ordered from GameStop. Regardless, the DLC eventually made its way to the complete edition of Disgaea 5 so players shouldn't worry too much about missing out.
Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny seems to be a Nintendo Switch exclusive for now so it's unlikely that players will receive bonuses like the digital artbook from the Steam edition of Disgaea 5 Complete. While Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny was launched on the PS4 and Nintendo Switch in Japan, its worldwide release is limited to the Nintendo Switch and there are no signs of a PS4 release or PC port. Fans may see other pre-order bonuses down the line when a complete edition is released for Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny but for now, they will have to decide between the Unrelenting and Limited editions.
Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny releases worldwide for PS4 and Switch on June 29, 2021.
