Look, I didn’t think PSO2 would even come out here, okay?
In 2012, when I first started to really become interested inPhantasy Star Online 2, I didn’t think it would ever hit western shores. And Idefinitelydid not imagine Epic Games starting their own store to rival Steam. And Iabsolutelyassumed that a storefront wouldn’t launch without a shopping cart.
It’s been a weird nine years. Alas, it is really happening. Today, folks.

As of right now,you can grabPhantasy Star Online 2from the Epic Games Store. It’s still free-to-play, and with today’s update, it’ll include content through Episode 6: Chapter 6. That’s adding inthe Luster class,which utilizes Gunslash weapons. So if you’re still having Steam issues, there’s another platform you can give a try. The Steam edition even came first! How about that, you don’t see that very often these days.
As a reminder, whilePhantasy Star Online 2is the hotness now,Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesisis the hotnesslater this year. I can’t wait to see what it has in store for us, as we all experience this new iteration globally.
