This Thursday is a big day for the Vita in Japan. In addition to the digital and physical release of Phantasy Star Online 2 on February 28th, Sony will also be releasing a new Ice Silver Vita which includes Phantasy Star Portable 2 on the harddrive and an AC 1000 ticket for the game worth 1,000 yen. Not a bad deal.
Phantasy Star Online 2’s digital release will be free and the physical version will include bonus items and costumes from Phantasy Star Portable 2. Hopefully will catch word of a Western release for the Vita soon.

It just seems like any word about PSO2 coming here is just a dream. I highly doubt SEGA of America is doing anything with the game now. It’s a shame… Phantasy Star is my favorite game franchise.
Pretty sure it’s confirmed for here, the vita version is feb 28 I think. Just waiting on pc. I like the cut of your jib, It’s mine too 🙂 PSIV changed my gaming life.
Shit this would potentially get me to buy a vita, literally the only franchise that could singlehanded do that
I knew it was announced for the US, but SEGA hasn’t said a thing since then. They haven’t given any update. I’m working on playing PSII, I’ve only beaten the first one. Working on PSO, as well.
Damn Dreamcaster, you just slew me. Crap, I looked the info up after reading your post. I thought the J-Vita release was for the US. D=
Kudos on beating part 1, it’s really hard to get into without nostalgia goggles (another reason I desperately wish the remakes on Saturn had came out here!) Even two is a bitch, so much grinding from the start just to survive the first dungeon…
Anyways I’m sending PSO2 some good juju!
I’ve actually finished the first dungeon, I just got distracted with .Hack and Dark Cloud. I don’t even have nostalgia for most old games, but I really despise most new games. I usually play old classics and whatnot.
