Disgaea 5: Alliance of Vengeance will be the first entry in the Disgaea series to offer a season pass as a method of buying DLC. The season pass will cost 4,000 yen, and those who purchase it (or buy all the downloadable content separately) will receive a bonus character, Pleinair. Reminiscent of EA’s Dragon Age games, players will be able to both purchase and access DLC content in the main hub, via a character who exists as an interface for the DLC.
Disgaea 5: Alliance of Vengeance is due for North America and Europe this autumn. It’s unknown whether this DLC will be available for purchase when the game launches internationally.
