Today Sega revealed content and events coming to Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis over the month of June.
We start with the large-scale Frozen “Resolution” update that will bring the new and wintery area named Kvaris on June 8 alongside plenty of content, enemies, quests, an increase of the level cap to 60, new skills, and much more.
You’ll also be able to purchase ridiculously overpriced outfits within the Kvaris Pack for $19.99 each.
June 15 will bring new enemies that will appear in the Raijord Gorge areas of Kvaris and new items for the SG scratch tickets, while June 22 will see the release of an upgraded Dark Falz interception quest and the inevitable AC Scratch ticket.
You can see all the new content below.
Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis is currently available for Xbox and PC in the west and for PS4, PC, and Nintendo Switch via cloud streaming in Japan.
