− | {{ | + | |release history = The game was released in Japan on July 4, 2012. An Asia version of the game for Asian territories was released by [[Company:Asiasoft|Asiasoft]] on May 29, 2014, but was shut down on May 26, 2017. [[Company:Gamania|Gamania]] had also released the game in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but was also shut down in 2017. It would be three years before Sega, in collaboration with [[Company:Microsoft|Microsoft]], released the game globally on May 27, 2020 via Microsoft Store. The game was also later released on Steam on August 5 of that year. There was also a PlayStation Vita version of the game exclusively released in Japan, but support for the platform ended in September 2020. |
− | {{- | + | |
+ | The game later received a big update on June 9, 2021 in the form of ''Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis'', in which a completely new world setting with open-world gameplay was released and is completely separate from the original ''PSO2''. Since the June 7, 2023 update, ''PSO2'' was separated from the game and is available as a free DLC.<ref>{{Refurl|url=https://pso2.com/players/news/942/|title=Regarding the data for PSO2 being released as DLC on 6/7 - PSO2 official site|date=June 14, 2023}}</ref> | ||
+ | |||
+ | |current state = As an online multiplayer game, ''PSO2 NGS'' receives new updates almost every week. The original ''PSO2'' can be accessed after clearing the Prologue in ''NGS'', and can be accessed from the Character Select menu or via the Ryuker Device after activating it from Central City. The game supports cross-play with Xbox One and PlayStation 4 players in the Global server, and with PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch players in the Japanese server. Do note that the Global server and the Japanese server are separate and players on one server cannot play or interact with players on the other. | ||

Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis (PSO2 NGS and NGS for short), formerly known as Phantasy Star Online 2 (PSO2 for short) is a multiplayer real-time third-person open world MMORPG game primary developed by Sega Division 3 (then-known as Sega Online R&D)[Note 1] and published by Sega. It is part of the Phantasy Star series.
The game was released in Japan on July 4, 2012. An Asia version of the game for Asian territories was released by Asiasoft on May 29, 2014, but was shut down on May 26, 2017. Gamania had also released the game in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but was also shut down in 2017. It would be three years before Sega, in collaboration with Microsoft, released the game globally on May 27, 2020 via Microsoft Store. The game was also later released on Steam on August 5 of that year. There was also a PlayStation Vita version of the game exclusively released in Japan, but support for the platform ended in September 2020.
The game later received a big update on June 9, 2021 in the form of Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis, in which a completely new world setting with open-world gameplay was released and is completely separate from the original PSO2. Since the June 7, 2023 update, PSO2 was separated from the game and is available as a free DLC.[1]
As an online multiplayer game, PSO2 NGS receives new updates almost every week. The original PSO2 can be accessed after clearing the Prologue in NGS, and can be accessed from the Character Select menu or via the Ryuker Device after activating it from Central City. The game supports cross-play with Xbox One and PlayStation 4 players in the Global server, and with PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch players in the Japanese server. Do note that the Global server and the Japanese server are separate and players on one server cannot play or interact with players on the other.

Issues unresolved
Cannot enable the Steam Overlay
- Stopped working as of August 21, 2024 with the Wellbia Anti-Cheat update.
- Without launching the game directly from
pso2.exe
, the Steam Overlay will not appear in-game.

Notes
|
Issues fixed
In-game FPS does not match specified FPS
- This issue has been fixed.[8]
- Due to how the game handles its FPS setting, capping the framerate at, for example, 120FPS will actually result in a framerate cap of 100FPS.[9]
- The unofficial English launcher is able to automatically partially-compensate for this.
