The “massive update” will mark the 20th anniversary of Phantasy Star Online and launch instead of a new episode after the release of Phantasy Star Online 2’s Episode 6.
The official website for Sega’s Phantasy Star Online 2 game announced on Tuesday that the game will get a release on PC via Steam on August 5.
A cloud version of the game for Nintendo Switch titled Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud launched in April 2018, and then launched for PC in December 2018.
The game’s official website notes that the “twin universes” of Phantasy Star Online 2 and Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis “exist side by side,” and players will be able to switch between the two.
