During Sega’s Christmas party commemorating Phantasy Star Zero’s release, Sega announced the original soundtrack which will be released on January 28th, 2009. The cover is described to pay homage to Phantasy Star Online.

A question was raised if Phantasy Star Zero had any relation between the past Phantasy Star games.  Producer Sakai revealed that if you play quests after the completion of the main game and read the text thoroughly, you might see some relevance between past games.

In the first stage of development,
Phantasy Star Online was recreated on the DS.

Director Kawabata commented on how there weren’t any snowy areas in the previous phantasy star online games. He said he was determined to insert such a field this time!
