 On July 30th, Sega of Japan sent out notices to Japanese players advising them to immediately change their passwords. This was done in response to the apparent malicious activities of unnamed third-parties. If players do not change their passwords, these parties could login to vulnerable accounts to remove items and delete characters. Also, ISAO has taken steps to hide billing details and prevent unauthorized account changes. This warning only applies to the Japanese servers. You can read additional details in this forum thread.

 To celebrate the second anniversary of the release of Phantasy Star Universe in Japan, Sonic Team is sponsoring the second annual Thanks Festa event. Scheduled to run from August 21 to September 25th, this Japanese event will include several new missions and GM events. Also, the event webpage has been opened to the public. Unlike most event websites, this one includes a special report section. You can use it to view listings for the most popular classes, races, and Partner Machinery.
Based on the timeline for last year's event, it is expected the regional servers will receive this event sometime in early 2009.
