Phantasy Star Portable 2: Infinity, the highly anticipated sequel to PSP2 for the Playstation Portable, launched yesterday in Japan. PSP2i offers players an all-new story mode, including tie-ins with PSO's 10th anniversary. The game also includes new features, allowing players to take screenshots, rebirth characters to gain additional stat points, create missions, play with alternate characters as NPCs, and more. In addition, you can import your existing PSP2 characters.

We're still waiting for more information on when we might see the game in the US and Europe, but PlayAsia and other import sites now have the Japanese version of the game in stock and available for those of you who don't want to wait! Copies of the game come with a Phantasy Star Online 2 code redeemable for a chance to participate in the PSO2 Alpha Test (though this may end up being limited to Japanese residents). For a limited time, there are also two free item packs available on PSN, containing eight total weapons and clothing items from the item design contests held in Japan.
