Though North America's still a few weeks away from getting its collective hands on
Phantasy Star Portable 2, Sega's Satoshi Sakai announced to Famitsu that a
fancy, extended version of the game will be released in Japan this year. Subtitled
Infinity, the expansion will feature new visual lobbies in online multiplayer modes (similar to the original
Phantasy Star Online), a respeccing tool for lower-level characters, a new playable race for advanced players, and a completely new campaign storyline which takes place after the events of the original
PSP2.
The new edition is slated to arrive in Japan some time this winter. The non-
Infinity version of
Phantasy Star Portable 2 is set to drop in North America on September 14. For more info on
Infinity's super esoteric changes and improvements, check out
