While Phantasy Star Online 2 only came to the west last year, it s been out in Japan for almost a decade - that s a long time! Well overdue some newness, if you ask me. Today, Sega will release New Genesis, a new standalone expansion for the old sci-fi MMO that spruces up the visuals and lets players explore an entirely new open world area.
When Sega first revealed New Genesis last year, it was a little unclear whether it was an update or a brand new game. Turns out, it s kinda both. It s like a baby new game, a little hatchling venturing out by itself (one that you can still use your existing Phantasy Star Online 2 character to play).
Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis is out next week on PC and Xbox eurogamer.net - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from eurogamer.net Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
