Finally! The time has come where we don't miss out on those awesome Phantasy Star Online 2 collaborations. After posting them for many, many years and feeling an intense sense of FOMO, the collabs are coming westward thanks to the impe...

Anytime I can pour one out for the Vita, it's a good day. Well, it's not a great day for the Vita for sure, but it's nice that we can at least remember the good times we had with it on a regular basis. All good things must eventually come t...

I can't believe that it's nearly here. I've been waiting literal years for Phantasy Star Online 2 to come west, and in the meantime I managed to play the fan-translated client and even test out the PS4 version at TGS in Japan years bac...

A lot of people have been waiting nearly a decade to finally play Phantasy Star Online 2. In those first minutes with the game, why not make things weird and dress up like a low-rent Sonic the Hedgehog cosplayer? Sega's immediately monetiz...

You may have missed out on the first opportunity to play Phantasy Star Online 2 for a couple of reasons. First and foremost, it was a closed beta, so maybe you weren't lucky enough to get in. But, even if you got access, maybe scheduli...

Booting up the Phantasy Star Online 2 Xbox One beta (which is only running through tonight) and looking through the class choices sight unseen can be daunting. Not only do you have to sort through all of the not-so-D&D terminology ...

As more and more news comes out about the Phantasy Star Online 2 western beta, it all seems like the localization team is doing right by it. Not only did we learn recently that the game will support both English and Japanese audio, but...

Normally when a game like Phantasy Star Online 2 is announced for localization, we get a ton of bad news slowly drip-fed in like a monkey's paw type situation. Not this time: so far, at least. The localization team has been taking to T...

I still can't believe that Phantasy Star Online 2 is coming west. After years of hoping and even playing the damn thing with the fan-made launcher and live at TGS on the PlayStation 4: I was starting to think it would never happen. But...

Phantasy Star Online 2 has been such a long time coming outside of Japan, but this is it. This is the year. We're getting the tantalizing online RPG in spring 2020 on Xbox One, and before then, there's a beta to play. If you haven't registe...

Phantasy Star Online 2 arrived back in 2012 on PC in Japan, and...the momentum kind of stopped there. Although Sega hinted that it would shuffle westward for years it never came, then somehow, someway at E3 2019 we got confirmation that it ...

Phantasy Star Online 2 coming west might have been my news of the show for E3 2019. Sure, I get that a translated version has been available for a while, but if you've been paying attention for the better part of a decade, I've been ra...

Once upon a time Phantasy Star Online was, in part, synonymous with the Xbox platform. Back when it wasn't so easy to get online on every console, Xbox Live was there to shoulder the weight: so long as you were willing to pay for both Xbox ...

Xbox says that it wants its players to play the best games in the world. It's making good on that promise this afternoon. A bombshell from the Xbox E3 2019 press conference is that Phantasy Star Online 2 is coming west next year. You'l...

I am Sega's terror that flaps in the night. I am the "where's my spy camera" of Phantasy Star 2's western release begging: I even played it at TGS and asked a Sega developer (with a smile) to bring it west in person, in Japanese. So far my ...

Legendary video game developer Sega is asking fans across America for their opinions on some of the company's popular games and franchises. A new survey has been drawn up to gather voxpops and information to help shape the direction of futu...

Sega Forever, the ever-growing collection of free mobile games, has gotten some new additions today. Classic RPGs Phantasy Star III: Generations of Doom and Phantasy Star IV: The End of the Millennium have joined Phantasy Star II under the ...

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...

As part of the ongoing festivities of Fes 2018, which is currently underway in Akihabra, Tokyo, Sega have revealed a selection of classic titles are winging their way to Nintendo Switch.Sega Ages (a compilation branding they have used previ...

Phantasy Star Online 2 just arrived on Switch, but wait! There's caveats. First off it's only available on the Japanese eShop, which isn't that big of a problem if you have a cross-region account -- though the Japanese text might give you s...

MMOs are a wonderful medium for expression, especially as you create your own character. Customizing an avatar that represents yourself as a unique individual in a world of hundreds, thousands, millions of others invites us to explore count...

We knew that Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud, the special version exclusively for the Switch, would be literally running off the cloud -- but thanks to some new info from Perfectly Nintendo, we have more of an idea what that entails. When you ...

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...
