Phantasy Star Online New Genesis Ver. 2 Updates Stia Exploration Map, Adds New Anime-like Face

An update has gone live on Sega’s free-to-play MMORPG Phantasy Star Online New Genesis Ver.2.

NGS Ver.2 has updated the Stia Exploration Sector: Mediola Area 1 map. The map will now feature floating islands mid-air surrounding the laval fields. Enemies appearing in this map starts at Level 95 and higher and all of them can morph into their Megalotix versions.

Trials that happen in the updated Stia map will have Side Missions. And once completed enough times, the Trial evolves into a a special Trial where a Gigantix Vardias or Rune Angele boss appears.

New, rare Trials have also been added in the area. More Updrafters and Sky Lifters have also been added. Comfort Lilies will now appear in the map, a new object that once destroyed, will damage enemies, adds an Elemental Down debuff on a wide area while restores player HP within the area as well as nullifies any lava damage.

The other new feature in the update is a new face style for the character editor available during character creation and at the Salon. The new Animatica Face option has wider eyes and mouth to produce more anime-like expressions. It goes will with the cel-shading effect.

The two features mentioned here are part of a bigger monthly update for NGS Ver.2 October 2024. The full list of new features (and limited-time events as well as new gacha banners) can be found here.

PSO2 NGS Ver.2 is now available on PS4, PC (Steam, Epic Games Store, Microsoft Store) and Xbox One.
