PSU: Ambition of the Illuminus update notice
This announcement is being made concerning an upcoming update to the current PS2/PC service of AOTI.

This update will introduce many completely new items, including weapons which appeared in previous installments of the Phantasy Star series, new clothes and more, totaling over 200 new items which will be added over time. Furthermore, "community course," a service which allows you to play without having to pay the monthly subscription fee, will be expanded. A variety of other features are planned, as well. Stay tuned to the official site for further details.

The next online event, GRM - Yohmei - TENORA: Gurhal's Greatest Battle, is set to begin in the last few weeks of December. Unlike previous events, this one will focus on more than a total monster kill count. Look forward to new items and a brand new event style thanks to the cooperation of Gurhal's big three weapon makers!

The target platform for this update is PC, though certain aspects of it will reflect in the PS2 version. We hope that you will continue to enjoy the world of AOTI for a long time thanks to the free PC client download as well as the graphical options available only for the PC.

AOTI update implementation summary
