    Default Article: Famitsu Reveals Phantasy Star Portable 2

    Recently, Sega opened up a teaser page to count down to a new RPG. Some believed this would turn out to be the seemingly already confirmed Phantasy Star Portable 2. They would be right.
    A forthcoming issue of Famitsu presents a multi-page spread concerning the currently in-development title. *The game will feature a storyline three years removed from the current events of Phantasy Star Universe, Ambition of the Illuminus,*and the original Phantasy Star Portable. *New content and new story characters are referenced and shown in the article. *We'll be sure to post more information as it comes in.
    Thanks to EspioKaos for bringing in these details. His post is part of an ongoing discussion about the sequel in the forums.

    Update: 1Up has posted a summary of the Famitsu article. Here are the key points:
    • The story takes place three years after Phantasy Star Portable.
    • Your character will work for Little Wing, a civilian group that runs a resort space colony.
    • Story Mode will feature twice as much text and voice content.
    • There will be three times as many missions, along with several new monsters and character designs.
    • Gameplay additions include an "Emergency Dodge" move, charged shots for gun type weapons, and shields that can repel enemy attacks.
    • Phantasy Star Portable 2 will support Infrastructure Mode, in addition to ad-hoc mode.
    • Players will have the option of playing with friends using a partner card searching system or using a matching service.
    • Phantasy Star Portable 2 is scheduled to be released on December 3 for 5040 yen.

    Default I just like the news...

    that there will actually be an infrastructure for online play instead of ad-hoc. The first game plays well but PSP is just like the rest, it screams to be played online.

    Default PSP is going to end up

    PSP is going to end up surpassing PSU in terms of gameplay variety. It's sad to see, to be honest; I'd love to see things like dodging implemented in PSU.

    Default The article says it takes

    The article says it takes place 3 years after the "SEED incident" so it would be a little more clear to say it takes place 3 years after the events of PSP and PSU AOTI.

    Great news, hope we'll see all these marvelous capabilities come stateside. After the whole Download thing from the first one, I'm a bit hesitant to remain optimistic. We'll see.
