Phantasy Star Online 2, AKA PSO2, is finally, finally officially making its way to the West. While the Japanese version with English language option has been available, it’s now going to be available to Xbox One and PC owners without needing to jump through any hoops. If you’re here, you’re probably wondering if PSO2 is coming to PS4. Allow us to share everything we know.
Phantasy Star 2 (PSO2) on PS4
Since PSO2 was shockingly revealed to be coming to the West back at E3 2019, fans have speculated when and where the game would be released. Originally, it appeared to be an Xbox One exclusive, which would have been quite the get for Microsoft, but also a bit bizarre. Shortly thereafter, we learned that PSO2 would also be released on PC.
But what about the PS4? Head of Xbox Phil Spencer recently confirmed that, eventually, PSO2 would release on all platforms, which presumably includes the PS4 (or perhaps the PS5).
Phantasy Star Online 2 will be exclusive to the Xbox One and PC for at least a little bit of time, but the plan for Sega is to eventually release it on all modern platforms as well.
Next-gen consoles, as of right now, are a total unknown. PSO2 is releasing at the very tail-end of a console generation and they may eventually want to make sure it’s also available on the Xbox Series X and PS5, but for now, it’s safer to assume just the PS4 is on the cards.
That’s all you need to know about whether PSO2 is coming to PS4. While there’s no time table right now, all signs appear to it eventually coming to Sony’s home console.
