Ten years after its initial release in Japan, Phantasy Star Online 2 is finally heading to the West and it will make its debut on the PS4.
The game was already available on the Xbox and PC for about a year and now it will be available on the PS4 as well for the first time. And just like the Xbox and PC versions, this one will also have the “New Genesis” subtitle.
The blurb reads:
“As it might be difficult to understand the relationship and differences between PSO2 and PSO2: NGS on the PSO2: NGS teaser site and in the currently-released trailer, this is a 4K follow-up video for current and past PSO2 players to better understand, based on what we can reveal at present.
PSO2: NGS is a huge-scale update to PSO2, updating the game system and graphics engine. Celebrating 20 years of PSO and 10 years of PSO2, we’re planning to release this update on a global scale, including Japan and North America, as we look forward to many more years of PSO2 in the future. The dev team has eagerly taken on this new challenge in the hopes that more people will come to enjoy the PSO2 series.”
Phantasy Star Online 2 is coming to PS4 on August 31. You can check out the trailer below:
