The Phantasy Star RPG series embarked on its first journey way back in 1988. The storied franchise makes an impressive leap to a new generation with Phantasy Star Universe. With the GUARDIANS Colony under attack from a strange species called The Seed, 17-year-old Ethan Weber does what any brother would do: he rescues his sister. That sends Ethan into a single-player saga spanning over 40 hours. The story's charged with emotion and packed with can't-take-your-eyes-of-'em cut scenes. More than 200 weapons in 20 categories offer a variety of combat options. You're up against over 20 enemy species with over 200 total variations. More adventure, including co-op play, awaits online.
