Phantasy Star Online 2 Coming to PS4 in Japan, Episode 4 Also Announced

Sega has made several Phantasy Star Online 2 announcements on a recent NicoNico livestream today, one of them announcing that Phantasy Star Online 2 will be heading to the PlayStation 4 in 2016, alongside a new Episode 4: Reborn expansion. Sega also announced that the PS4 version of the game will be playable at the upcoming Tokyo Game Show (September 2015).

Unfortunately there’s still no word on the status of the release of PSO2 for the West. While officially still delayed, many have lost hope in ever seeing the game released outside of Asia. However, the announcement of the PS4 version may be good news for us. After all, Sega’s CEO noted that, while the position of the PS4 still isn’t that strong in Japan, it’s registering record-breaking sales elsewhere. Since Sega sees an opportunity there, it would only make sense that they release Phantasy Star Online 2 worldwide. Let’s hope they see it the same way!
