Sega formally announced new crossover content from two anime shows coming to Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis at the June 2024 NGS Headline program. The titles that will be featured in the new PSO2 entry are The Eminence In Shadow and Shangri-La Frontier.
The crossover content from The Eminence In Shadow will appear first in PSO2: New Genesis on July 17, 2024. The main highlight of “The Eminence In Shadow Style” scratch ticket will be avatar parts that let players replicate the appearances of four characters from the title.
Just like the Code Geass crossover in June 2024, this scratch ticket will also include Japanese voice sets for the featured characters. That means players will be able to hear Seiichiro Yamashita as Shadow, Asami Seto as Alpha, Inori Minase as Beta, and Kana Hanazawa as Alexia Midgar.
Sega also published a new roadmap while revealing that it will add another batch of crossover content from Shangri-La Frontier. This title will fill the “Anime based on light novel” slot in August 2024.
Other than that, Sega is planning to add content from a 2024 anime based on a shonen manga in September 2024 and an external video game around the 2025 New Year’s Day. The company also has two unknown crossovers in November 2024 and between February and March 2025.
Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis is available as a free-to-play online game worldwide on PC and PlayStation 4, with an additional Nintendo Switch cloud version in Japan and an Xbox One release elsewhere globally. The Eminence in Shadow Style Scratch Ticket will appear for a limited time in PSO2: New Genesis starting from July 17, 2024. The Shangri-La Frontier crossover content will follow suit in August 2024.
