Sega has announced that Phantasy Star Portable 2 is getting a western release this fall. That goes for both North America and Europe, by the way.

“The Phantasy Star franchise is famous for its online pedigree, so we are pleased to deliver this functionality to gamers on the move with Phantasy Star Portable 2,” said Gary Knight, European Marketing Director, SEGA Europe Ltd. “The extensive online multiplayer offering will allow gamers to expand and share their experiences with other players around the world.”

One of the game’s main features is four-player co-op via either infrastructure or ad-hoc. In addition, it offers a new storyline, enhanced combat system, new weapons, and character customization options.
