Atlus Announces Phantom Brave Exclusively for the PlayStation 2
 April 30th, 2004 (12:00am) - The spiritual successor to 2003’s hit strategy role-playing game Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, Phantom Brave comes to North America on the Playstation 2 this fall. Developed by Nippon Ichi and exclusively distributed by Atlus, Phantom Brave continues the intriguing game play of Disgaea while adding an immense number of new graphical and game play features.
“Phantom Brave improves upon the tactical gameplay found in Disgaea and La Pucelle in every way. Its redone, open-ended battle system is limited only by the user’s imagination,” said Akibo Shieh, Project Lead at Atlus. “If you fell in love with Disgaea, you definitely won’t want to miss out on what’s sure to be this year’s best Strategy RPG.” About Phantom Brave
