Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis Celebrates One Year Anniversary!


Tokyo, May 11, 2022 – SEGA today announced the celebration of the Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis 1st Anniversary. The free-to-play online action RPG game launched globally in June 2021 and features huge wide-open battlefield environments, enhanced character models, redesigned graphics engine, new multi-weapon systems and abilities, and cross-platform play between PC and Xbox players.

The first year was marked by a variety of updates including the Katana-wielding Braver class and the nimble Bouncer class. The year's largest update, Sandstorm Requiem, debuted the new desert region, Retem, new enemies, and new characters as well as the addition of Chapter 2. Players celebrated all year long by participating in seasonal events like the Autumnal Equinox, Winter Event and Spring Fiesta, which featured limited time quests and rewards. Players also commemorated the launch of Sonic Colors: Ultimate with a special collaboration campaign that featured Sonic-themed rewards.

The Reminiscence Collection, which brought back beloved cosmetic items, emotes and motion changes and Gilded Glamour, which featured luxe embroidered dresses and detailed attire, were the most popular AC Scratch Ticket Collections. Summer Sky Seaside, which included perfect outfits for summer such as swimwear, was a community favorite.

The Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis story continues in the biggest update yet launching on June 8, which features the inclusion of the highly anticipated snowy mountain region, Kvaris, Chapter 3, raised level cap, and new class skills!
