Knights of Steel

Sakai showed off some lovely concept art for the next download items after the Phantasy Star Zero weapons.

There are many private military companies fiercely competing within the Gurhal Solar System. The one that many of you would know by now is the Little Wing, and the largest company would be The Guardians. So we introduce one such private company known as the Knights of Steel Flowers.

Little Wing Rivals: 鋼華の騎士団

The costume has a sort of Cherry Blossom feel but with a militaristic approach. Like the Disciplinary Committee, they may possibly have their own unique weapons, but we'll see.

Weapons of Zero

The Pretty Parasol from Phantasy Star Zero will make it's debut.

The Sealed Yonohate Sword from Phantasy Star Zero.

We know everyone wants to know if the Sealed Yonohate Sword will "unseal" after a certain amount of hits, but Sakai did not say. Each DLC costs 200 Yen and is available only at the Japanese Playstation Store at June 11, 2010.

Sonic's Birthday 2010

It's that time of the year again, Sonic's Birthday will be celebrated exclusively on Xbox360. This time they are commemorating the release of the Supplemental Update which will have no Guardians Cash and no Free Course Play. Well the former is pretty good news for the community as a whole.

Additionally the Little Wing Grand Prix item designs will be available to download! The items come from Ringo and Kakka!

And Now A Message from Kakka 閣下

First I'll begin with a big "Thank you very much!" I want to Thank all the people who were involved with the making this weapon. I had no idea I'd have an impact on Phantasy Star Portable 2 in this way. It was a pleasure to come up with this weapon after going through lots of ideas. I hope you all use this special championship axe as well as Ringo's weapon.

This was the first time I've ever played any game within the Phantasy Star Series, but my first impression on it that it was easy to play and enjoy. This game is enjoyable thanks to Internet Multimode which made it easy to connect with party members. And now I was able to partner up with Ringo for Little Wing Grand Prix. I will continue to play Little Wing Grand Prix.

Sakai Says: When coming up with the creation of this weapon, we went with a similar view of two specific weapons. Former President Dallgun's head was used in a weapon known as the Dallgun Rod ダルガン・ロッド. Then Laia's face was used in another weapon known as the Laia Axe ライアアックス. So we used the same concept by using Kakka's face on the weapon, in a style similar to the Karsh clan on Moatoob.

You can use his face as a weapon!

And Now a Message from Ringo♪

So I want to talk frankly about how the item came to be… We decided upon the concept after the finals and I am satisfied and astounded by the results very much. This item was stuffed with ideas from Sakai, Suganuma, Kimura, Kakka, Captain T, and I. I'm glad to be able to run around with this weapon in Gurhal! Please use it! Thanks to Internet Multimode and LWGP I was able to meet up with Kakka, considering we live in different areas. I want to say Thanks to Sakai! PSpo2 is a game where you can connect person to person.

I hope that LWGP can continue for a second and third time, and that more events can be brought up with Phantasy Star.

Sakai Says: Ringo did an impressive job answering questions during the interview smoothly. Since his character name was Apple♪ [林檎♪], we thought there might be some fixation towards apples, so we decided on making a weapon around that theme. However, he wanted to create a "cool double saber" and was worried about bringing together his idea with this type of weapon. The item came to be a cut up apple with a beam within the middle area.
