• 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.

      awesome, i just played the beta for an hour and im satisfied. cant wait till tomorrow. Im a black/white/orange cast named NitroPenguin btw. Hope to see you all in beta. Also i had problems logging in at first. Then i made a new sega ID which worked out just fine. If you havent signed up u can do so now. I made a new account and jumped right in. As for the authentication code, i did what some other guy said and googled katakana keyboard, then just copied what i saw and boom. Although, it seems the english patch isnt compatible with the open beta, as i installed it, but didnt get any translations in-game at all. Feel free to ask me any questions, as i will be happy to help. =]

      I kinda had the same problem like some of you with the whole log in. i had to figure out what the second step was after putting in my id and pw. i simply put in the name i wanted to go by for my character and it started the game. this of course after 4 or 5 tries, heh. it was all worth it though considering that next time i log in i can just zip through to the game play. i have to say it was the most exciting HOUR of gameplay ever; for me at least. My friend on the other hand had some problems starting the game. he keeps getting a error screen and the game wont start. i think this was due to his using the english patch for the other beta, not sure. if anyone has an idea on how to fix this PLEASE BY ALL MEANS let me know. he would GREATLY APPRECIATE it. so far, what he attempted to do was re-install the game.

      SEGA IDs have to be entered in all lower case.
      I didn't play any other beta tests prior to this one, so the fact that I didn't know that tripped me up for a good minute or two.
      And after I figured that out, it took me roughly 18 login attempts and 4 different error codes before I got it.
      Try again the next session?

      When I signed up last month, I received a Sega ID, but I don't see a password anywhere in the e-mail. Where can I get this? I also tried going to the "reset password" page, but I don't ever remember setting up a Secret Question or putting in any personal information. Any help would be great... (I NEED to try this game )
