SEGA today shared a new NGS Headline, a program to inform players about the present and future of Sega’s free-to-play online action RPG, PHANTASY STAR ONLINE 2 NEW GENESIS, with information on current operations, future updates, and campaigns. Today SEGA revealed Halloween festivities, a level cap raise for all classes, new Trials and Quests, and more.
Halloween ’24
Celebrate Halloweentime starting October 9. Feast your eyes on Central City, transforming with spooky holiday decorations and Region Mags donning pumpkin-themed attire. Reaper Rappy, Trickertreat Emperappy, and Trickertreat Great Rappy haunt the fields! Xiemi’s Seasonal Points Exchange Shop is stocked with treats: BP: Matsutake Mushrooms and the 11-star Rarity Exelio weapon series! Take on the new Limited-time Urgent Quest: Haunted Domain II, featuring completely revamped fields, more seasonal ambiance, and aberrant mutants! Change the element setting of Mobile Cannon ECS accordingly and seize that moment to launch high-potency Charged Blasts at these enemies to take them down in one fell swoop!
Stia’s Exploration Sectors Update
Starting tomorrow, Stia’s Exploration Sectors will be updated to include floating islands in the sky and land surfacing in lava areas filled with Megalotix enemies. Completing Trials with Side Missions will cause Gigantix Vardias or Ruine Angele to spawn! Complete a Title Task by defeating Ruine Angele. Check out new, rare Trials such as a Trial where Recon Gigants appear and a Co-op Trial that charges a certain amount of M.A.R.S. battery when completed! Damage the new object, Comfort Lily, and it will explode, dealing Elemental Down and damaging enemies! After exploding, it recovers surrounding players’ HP for a set time, emitting an effect that nullifies lava damage.
Equipment Upgrades
Beginning tomorrow, Equipment Upgrade (Augment Transfer) is coming to the Exchange Shop menu! Use this feature to retain some of your Augments while enhancing equipment! The 11-star Rarity Exelio weapon series will become upgradable, with more upgradable equipment added in the future.
BP: Water Space
Players can now place water in their Creative Space by using new water Build Parts. Enjoy swimming by diving into the water of BP: Water Space! Other new Build Parts include Evolcoat series and food!
