- Fuka and Desco from Disgaea 4: A Promise Unforgotten can be unlocked as playable characters, as well as a Generic class called Factory Desco.

- Facilities:
- The Record Shop has been added.
- The Class World NPC is now always in the hub.
- Music can be purchased directly from the Music Shop in the Base Map, instead of having to find one in the Item World.
- The [Beryl Story Guide] changed to [Parallel Worlder], and [Beryl's PV Shop] changed to [Next Episode Shop].
- The Music Shop, Character Painter, and Bulletin Board all have icons above them in the Base Map.
- Quality of Life Improvements:
- New feature: Honor Quotient(HQ for short), which provides benefits to EXP and Mana gains, shopping, Item stat growth, and other benefits based on how high the player's HQ is. HQ is obtained by doing various tasks within the game and through travelling with the game.
- The ability to put Unique Characters into the Detention Room.
- New Rank 40 Items were added which outclass the other Rank 40 items that were previously the best in their category in terms of stats. The new Rank 40 items can be obtained by stealing them from an Item God 2 of the original Rank 40 items in the Land of Carnage.
- The Ability to change the appearance of any weapon (but Fist and Monster Weapons) to another of that certain weapon type in the Item World Homeroom.
- Animated Character Portraits in cutscenes.
- Generic characters can have different personality types like in Disgaea 4.
- Characters talk when they leave the Base Panel like in Disgaea 4.
- Control Options that use the Touch Screen and Rear Touch Pad.
- Since the extra episodes can be accessed before the post-game, the levels of enemies in them changes to correspond your progress in the main story. In addition, enemy equipment will also scale in quality based on the player's story/post-game progress.
- 6 new window styles have been added, with the first being an almost exact replica of the one used in Absence of Justice. Two of the styles are also reminiscent of 2 of the window styles used in the Final Fantasy series. The styles come in two variations each: solid and slightly opaque.
PSTV Compatibility Issues[]
Due to the addition of the Honor Quotient system, which requires use of the PS Vita's internal GPS to track, there have been issues with making the game work on the GPS-less PSTV. After the Tutorial chapters, the first time the HQ system is introduced it causes an error message to pop up that effectively says the PSTV lacks the GPS feature. This can make the game unplayable unless you use hacking software to turn off the feature.
