Final Fantasy Meets Phantasy Star Online! Learn All About the Crossover You Never Thought Possible!
Two fan-favorite RPG franchises are about to have a crossover.
The Phantasy Star Online and Final Fantasy franchises are about to have an epic crossover. An official trailer has been released for the new collaboration for Final Fantasy content in Phantasy Star Online. You can check out that video below. Famitsu (via Siliconcera) reports that the new collaboration will have Final Fantasy XIV-themed content released for Phantasy Star Online 2. The content will be things like the Miqo’te outfits and some other items. In addition, Odin will appear as a new boss character in the game.
Final Fantasy XIV is currently available online. However, Phantasy Star Online 2 is currently only available in Japan. The game is expected to receive a PlayStation 4 release in Japan later in 2016. An international version for the North American region has not yet been announced. Hopefully for the sake of fans, a western launch for the game might come around some point.
Still, while there’s the possibility that a western release might not happen, Sega and Square Enix teaming up to bring some new content together like this is very exciting. It would also be interesting if Square Enix reciprocates by adding some Phantasy Star Online content to a Final Fantasy game.

I am super excited for this. Since it mentioned that it is online, I hope there will be a PC version, however so far it looks to be exclusively console? Correct me if I'm wrong on that. Also, I can't wait to see more of this game. Two of my absolute favorites mashed into one!
I heard quite a bit about this game when the initially announced it, and since then, my interest has only steadily grown. I'm very sure that this will be one of those titles that has a chance of dethroning at least a couple of the reigning MMOs from their glory, because the concept is so fresh that you will definitely see people jumping ship.
