Phantasy Star Online Heading to PC

Hold on to your butts, PC owners – you’re finally going to get a taste of the online RPG goodness that is Phantasy Star Online. SEGA has confirmed that Sonic Team is working on a home computer version of the award-winning sci-fi adventure, and that graphically it will look about four times better than the Dreamcast original. Fancy that!

PSO PC is planned to debut at the World PC Expo in Japan on September 19, with an aim to be released early next year. It will probably coincide with the release of the Gamecube version too, which looks set to release about the same time (Spring, alongside Nintendo’s modem adaptor).

Sonic Team has launched a page specially for the PC version on the official Phantasy Star Online website, you can take a look at some screens and info by clicking here.
