Prinny’s heroic efforts have not gone unrewarded. Developer Nippon Ichi announced today that the lovable penguin mascot, formerly only known as a secondary character in the Disgaea series, will continue his road to stardom and return in a second outing on PSP.

Unfortunately, Nippon Ichi is staying coy on details for the time being, revealing only a portion of the game’s title as pictured above. For whatever reason, part of it is covered in question marks. We’d expect the sequel to expand on the simplistic yet addictive gameplay of the original while keeping the difficulty meter high to the point of frustration. That’s how we like it, dood.

The announcement coincides with the announcement of a “Best Prince” budget version of the original Prinny title. This re-release will hit Japanese store shelves on November 26, carrying a reduced price tag of ¥1,980 on UMD and ¥1,500 on PSN.
