Players outside of Japan have been enjoying online role-playing game Phantasy Star Online 2. Those days are over. Until its Western release, the game is now Japan only.
Sega updated its terms of usage today, dropping this bombshell for PS02 players outside Japan: āConnecting to the game server through the installed software is restricted to domestically located computer terminals. Itās prohibited to directly connect to the server from outside Japan as well as to route a connection from outside the country through domestic computer terminals.ā
Until now, it was possible to log in to Phantasy Star Online 2 from outside the country. Itās unclear why Sega decided to restrict this.
