Phantasy Star Online 2 revealed that it has crossed a new milestone with more than one million registered players. This follows a successful launch to both Xbox One and PC in North America earlier this year, along with the release to more regions through Steam this month.
In a press statement, PSO Team Global Head of Marketing Fred White said that everyone has been working hard in order to be able to bring Phantasy Star Online 2 to players around the world this year. He went on to say that “launching worldwide has been a dream come true” and that “surpassing a million registered players this month is a good feeling, and we’ve got so much more in store for the game in the future to look forward to.”
