Ever since I started blogging on Destructoid, I’ve not bothered to keep it a secret that I’m part of the furry fandom. I mean, yeah, it’s weird to say I like pretending to be a giant moth man with extraneous kaiju-like fea...

I'm not really a Phantasy Star fan, good thing too, as I'd be permanently miserable about the lack of love shown in my region and elsewhere for the classic RPG series. The misery continues as Nintendo have announced Phantasy Star Online 2: ...

Sega just hit a milestone with Phantasy Star Online 2 on PS4, and it's celebrating with a collaboration with Gravity Rush 2. In Japan, naturally. At first it just looks like a simple costume, but it also enables the incredibly cute bir...

After enjoying the original Phantasy Star Online for many years, both offline by way of split-screen and online, I was thrilled to hear that there would be a true sequel on a modern day console. But likewise, years have passed sin...

Phantasy Star Online 2 is celebrating its fourth anniversary this July. Yes, that's four long years that the game hasn't arrived in the west, despite ports to the Vita and PlayStation 4. Today marks the launch of the latter, in fact, which ...

[From humble beginnings, David Jenkins managed to start a successful guild where nobody knew their organization was being led by children. ~Strider] Man, looking up photos for this blog post hit me with all kinds of feels and nostalgia. Abo...

The PlayStation 4 edition of Phantasy Star Online 2 will begin service on April 20, Sega says. Of course, the Sonic Boom company has no official plans to bring the new port to western shores, and it still has yet to make good on its four-ye...

It's been close to four years since Sega announced Phantasy Star Online 2 for a western release, but, despite the game being available in English throughout Asia, we're still without a localization. In an amusing turn of events, anime group...

Ah Phantasy Star Online 2. Why did you have to be so good when I played you at TGS on PS4? Will you ever see a true western release? It's a possibility, but in the meantime, Japan will enjoy the PS4 version this coming spring, Sega has anno...

It's no secret that I've been pining for a western release for Phantasy Star Online 2 for quite a while now. I'm hesistant to install the international version of the game, mostly because all of my friends are waiting on true localization o...

[Update: The IP block has since been brought back for some reason. Bummer.] Phantasy Star Online 2 has been out since 2012 in Asia but never made the jump to English-speaking countries officially until now, sort of. The Southeast ...

Every time I write about Phantasy Star Online 2, my heart aches a little. It's nice that there's an english language patch out there, but so many fans don't want to play the game without a proper localization, so I'm stuck without any frie...

Remember how earlier I detailed Sega's E3 2014 lineup and we all lamented the lack of Phantasy Star Nova localization? Me too. But don't cry. Not yet. There's a brand new trailer that'll dry all of your tears, and then remind you that this...

Phantasy Star Online 2 has gotten some pretty crazy crossovers so far, but this one is probably the coolest. Attack on Titan will be invading PSO 2 in multiple ways, the most obvious of which is new outfit selections. You'll be able to dec...

Phantasy Star Online 2 is doing crazy well in Japan, and it's set to come to Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Vietname, Indonesia, and the Philippines -- but not the US, yet, much to the ire of fans. The success kee...

Sega is showing off new title Phantasy Star Nova at Tokyo Game Show this week. I know you'll instinctually hit the play button on the trailer -- and you should -- but the screenshots are the star of the show here. They look really nice. PS...
