During Phantasy Star Online 2 Episode 4, players wake up from a long sleep, and PSO2 Meseta they learn that an enemy known as The Phantom has emerged, that are basically fake ARKS members. If that was not hard enough to wake around, the measurement of Earth has been discovered. The actual ARK members will now have the ability to unlock a new level cap and explore new locations, Tokyo, and Las Vegas as they continue their adventure to solve the mystery of the black shadow and then purge the planet of those fierce enemies. Boltrend Games recently launched the English version of Sega's cellular JRPG Idola Phantasy Star Saga in western countries excluding Europe.

This will soon change, as the publisher intends to release the sport in Europe such as the U.K. within a month. Sega and Microsoft introduced a brand new iteration of Phantasy Star Online 2 yesterday during the Xbox Series X Games Showcase and it may have possibly been confusing. It is titled Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis (abbreviated as PSO2: NGS) which, with contemporary understandings of how subtitles and MMOs operate, seemed like an expansion. Then it sounded like a entire overhaul / revamp of this game, very similar to A Realm Reborn for Final Fantasy XIV.

But it's really neither of those things from the looks of this. According to a followup trailer (embedded above) which was released following the exhibition ended about the official North American PSO2 YouTube station, New Genesis is actually a"whole new universe" that will co-exist alongside PSO2 but is an expansion nor replacement. The key takeaways from what I've seen so far are as follows: New Genesis is an"open field" online RPG, meaning it will feature larger more explorable environments. The whole graphics engine is getting overhauled, in addition to the"game programs" for"next generation" gameplay. PSO2 is also getting the same overhauled graphics update. However, you do not have to carry across your personality growth, such as level, experience points, ability, photon arts, techniques, etc.. You also won't get to carry over economy-affecting currency such as Meseta and FUN, but might carry over AC and SG. There is a brand new character creation engine that looks ridiculously detailed and powerful.

PSO2: NGS will be 100% free-to-play like PSO2 and will launch on Windows 10, Xbox One, and Xbox collection X in 2021, the same year that marks the 20th anniversary of the original PSO. More details are available on the official site now as well. You could even discover the PSO2: NGS teaser website here. I have reached out to PR for more details and clarification and will keep things updated as I know more. Meanwhile, you are able to join in the Announcement Celebration in PSO2 at this time for some completely free perks and bonuses.The wait is over for Phantasy Star Online 2's Episode 5.

There's a new story, updated attributes and even a new course to enjoy. Sega has been hyping up the game's next stage with bonuses and bonuses for some time, but now there's even more. Episode 5 seems like a significant departure from Episode 4, as there are a lot of new items to experience and a new, higher level cap of 90 to reach. Here's what to get excited about in PSO2 Episode 5, and the way to return if you were tired of fighting a boat. The first Scion Class, Hero, is here. Unlike regular classes, there are requirements to unlock Scions, plus they tend to play otherwise. To play Hero, you should have any two level 75 classes before talking to Cofy to pso2 sales unlock it.
