Phantasy Star series producer Satoshi Sakai and Episode 5 director Hiroki Hamasaki have confirmed to Japanese publication 4Gamer that Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud is coming to the Nintendo Switch in Spring 2018. The game will be available to play in both handheld and docked mode and will run at a steady 30fps.
It’s that not the Gamecube game???
No, it’s the sequel to that game, a full fledged MMORPG
It’s been out on pc for a while in Japan now. We’re not getting it in the west.
*Dreamcast game
Yeah, also available for GameCube. It was a fun game, it’s a shame this one probably won’t make it states side because I firmly believe Nintendo needs a solid MMO game. Also a good team based shooter, and that’s not a knock to Splatoon.
You’re thinking of episode 2, which was rereleased and bundled episode 1 for the Gamecube, after the Dreamcast ended. Both those games and episode III (released much later) are all part of the first game.
I guess this is similar to how they did Xenoblade Chronicles 2 to Xenoblade Chronicles X, and the next Kingdom Hearts game to how they did everything released after Chain of Memories (“My Sanctuary”).

It would be nice if we would ever get these titles. If not Online, just a new mainline Phantasy Star would be appreciated.
I’ve been waiting for that since Sega announced that IT WAS COMFIRMED FOR THE WEST!! I been angry at you since then, Sega.
Nice, hopefully that holds up.
That I’m angry with them? Lol
Sega killed the Phantasy Star franchise in the west. Sega purposely caused this franchise to fail in the west!
How about….you know…bringing it to the west like you promised.
Unless I can get a continuation of the story, and side stories, of PSO Episode 1 & 2, don’t care.
The Gamecube version of PSO 1&2 was the absolute superior version. I really miss this franchise, I’ve been playing PS since it was released on the Sega Genesis. Sega is a hollow shell of it’s former self.
Thanks to a Game Informer article, I know Sega went downhill in the 90s when Sega of Japan ignored the very good, sound advice of Sega of America’s CEO at the time. If they actually listened to that guy, we’d probably see a very different landscape today & Sega would probably still be making their own consoles.
*rage at the continued lack of a western release*
