When Disgaea 4 Complete+ released on the PC in September last year, it was lacking much of the online functionality which set the game apart from others in the franchise – both before it and after it. The idea was for this content to be rolled out by Nippon Ichi Software America through a post-launch update. Finally, after an approximately four month wait, the Network Features Update has gone live.
For versions of Disgaea 4 Complete+ available via either the Xbox Game Pass for PC or Steam, the following functionality has now been introduced:
Map Editor
Users can arrange terrain, characters, and objects to create their own original, unique maps.
Pirates
Users can combine ship parts and arrange characters to create an original pirate ship and crew, then upload their pirates to fight other players. Additionally, uploaded pirates can also show up in the Item World to either attack or support the player that encounters them!
Foreign and Defense Ministers
Users can appoint a “Foreign Minister” to appear in other players’ Dark Assemblies to sway the voting process, and summon another user’s “Defense Minister” to help them in battle.
Netherbattle Tournament
Users can upload their characters to four classes and challenge unique online stages by creating a battle party with other players’ characters.
Everybody’s Netherworld Records
Players can upload their data to contribute to 12 stat categories that compile everybody’s total progress.
Pirate Trial
Users can engage in trials with their Pirates and upload their results for ranking and receive rewards the following week depending on their ranking.
Ranking Battle
Users can engage in a themed battle (themes are rotated weekly) and upload their score to the ranking boards. Ranking Points (RP) will be awarded according to the user’s ranking, which they can exchange for items at the Ranking Shop.
