• Phantasy Star Online 2 Pre-Open Beta Scheduled for June 15th & 16th

    The Japanese Phantasy Star Online 2 Pre-Open Beta has been scheduled for June 15th and June 16th. The playtime window will be limited each day to the following hours:
    • Eastern Standard Time: 6am to 11am
    • Pacific Standard Time: 3am to 8am


    Character data will be wiped once the Pre-Open Beta is completed. Also, characters will receive a code for a Bouquet Rifle if a specific Desert Mission is completed. The Bouquet Rifle will be delivered to users sometime during the Open Beta test.

    If the Pre-Open Beta is successful, the Open Beta will start immediately after Pre-Open Beta ends.

      Okay so my update finished, all I really am wondering is when we will need our sega id's. I remember my id and password, the only problem is I dont know how to get back into my sega id since I can't solve the Katakana captcha. Helps?

      Search Google for a katakana keyboard. The first option gives you a copy and paste option you can use to fill in the captcha.

      They just opened up the download patch part of the server. you will not be able to access the pre-beta till its time on Friday and Saturday if you got email about it. If it all goes well those two days. Open beta should start on Sunday. If not it will start few days after. I am also testing to see if the English patch used in closed beta will still work with the open beta. I will notify if it can be used or if we have to wait for people to make new one for this beta.
      -update-
      Patch from the closed beta does not work. It will only leave blank on screen options where text should be. Will have to wait for new translator after the pre-beta is finished and open beta starts.
