Disgaea 5 PC Delayed Until Fall 2018

[Subtle Demise]

Originally slated for release May of this year, the Steam version of Disgaea 5 Complete was delayed to Summer 2018 just a day before release due to some sort of unnamed issue.

After months of no word about the game, NISA tweeted that they would have an announcement about the game during Anime Expo. The announcment was made that Disgaea 5 Complete was delayed again to Fall of 2018, with another round of beta testing beginning in October. An official tweet confirms the delay:

Sorry to hear you were not able to catch our announcement! Disgaea 5 Complete on PC is going to be released in Fall 2018 and will have a private beta starting in early October. We appreciate everyone's patience while we worked out the issue we found earlier this year.

The issue in question still remains a mystery.

Did you finish the "leaked" release yet?

I'm only on chapter 5. I have to point out that the only flaw that version has vs. the official release is the fact that it kicks you back to the title screen after every chapter completion beyond chapter 3. Saving at chapter end (you should be doing this anyway) makes that a non-issue though. Whatever serious issue that's causing a 6 month delay in the release date hasn't affected me at all.

NISA has really been miserable with their PC releases lately.

Which sucks given they're handling Ys and Disgaea.

EDIT: Well damn, they're also handling killer7
