New Disgaea 6 Gameplay Video Highlights Counters

Disgaea 6 will feature two different styles of counter abilities players can have characters equip. Famitsu provided a first look at this feature. This latest Disgaea 6 gameplay video highlights how retaliating will work, when character equip abilities, and how quickly players will be able to rack up massive amounts of damage with these two new skills. [Thanks, Famitsu!]

As mentioned before, there will be two types of Disgaea 6 counter abilities. The “Forced Counter” ability will force the targeted unit to counterattack up to twenty times. The “Preparation to Intercept” ability will always trigger a counterattack upon defending. The unit equipped with this ability has the opportunity to counter attack up to twenty times too.

In addition, the latest entry in the series will come with a new new 99,999,999 level cap, which will no doubt allow players to deal massive amounts of damage with the stats available at the highest level.
