Sega not too long ago gave free-to-play action-RPG Phantasy Star Online 2 a long-overdue western launch with two gutting caveats: it’s on the Windows 10 Store; and it’s just for North America. Microsoft’s Store is sufficient of a large number that some would-be gamers nonetheless can’t set up PSO2. While sadly they nonetheless don’t have something to say a couple of European launch, there may be excellent news for shops. Alongside saying the primary massive replace for America, the place gamers will struggle a classic battleship, Sega confirmed PSO2 is coming “to more PC platforms soon.”
Eight years after its Japanese debut, Phantasy Online Star 2 launched on PC in North America on May 27. Three weeks on, Sega say they “are still working closely with Microsoft to solve the issues” which can be stopping some from downloading or putting in the game. Yup, that Microsoft Store certain generally is a nuisance. Sega don’t identify the opposite PC platforms (plural) PSO2 is headed too however odds are good at the least one is healthier.
Sega laid out their roadmap for content material updates as we speak. There’s an entire lot to make amends for from the Japanese version, and the primary massive post-launch lump will arrive in August with new quests, new tales, and a better degree cap. And actually, a battleship.
“During our E3 2019 announcement, one of the lines read ‘All the Content’, and we know many of you must be wondering what it means for the launch of PSO2 in North America,” they stated. “Well, we intend to keep this promise while also making sure series veterans and newcomers alike get to experience the story unfolding with each new episode release as it was originally intended.”
Yeah yeah, now what about Europe? I’ve recognized of us who loved PSO2 sufficient to play on the distant Japanese servers and I wish to see what’s up.
