Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud General Information

Welcome to PSO2 Cloud

Phantasy Star Online 2 is releasing on the Nintendo Switch on April 4th! Unlike other platforms, this version of the game allows you to instantly play without having to download those notorious gigantic updates! To get started on your journey, you'll need to download a 40MB cloud application.

 

Shared Game Data

Your progress from each version is shared among all platforms. Switch players can sign into PSO2 Cloud using the same SEGA ID from the other versions.

 

Multiplayer Capable

Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud allows you to play with up to 12 players. You can even go questing with allies from the PC version.

 

PSO2 Cloud Requirements

PSO2 Cloud is an online game streaming through the cloud gaming servers. Due to these circumstances, the following items are required:

 

SEGA ID

A SEGA ID is required to sign into the PSO2 servers. Please take the time now to register a SEGA ID before the service launches.

 

Internet Connection

Since Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud utilizes a high-speed broadband connection, Sega requires the following devices:

Connectivity Requirements (A) or (B)

  • (A) Wi-Fi 802.11ac 5GHz
  • (B) Broadband Compatible Wired LAN Adapter.

Suggested Wireless Devices

 

Disk Space

Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud requires 40 MB of space in order to play.

 

 

Cloud Gaming Service

Similar to popular streaming services, PSO2 Cloud captures your character’s input and transmits that data to the Cloud. The results are then displayed on the Nintendo Switch, allowing you to play the game in real-time. Graphics and other game intensive data are handled by the Cloud, making downloading and updating no longer necessary.

Due to the nature of the cloud gaming service, the game will be set to 30 fps, and the player might experience delays based on the status of the internet connection.

 

PSO2 Cloud Limitations

PSO2 Cloud users will have restrictions in Cross Platform gaming. More details can be found at the [PSO2 Cloud Limitations] post.

 

Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild × PSO2

Playing the Nintendo Switch version allows you to obtain exclusive items such as Link's hairstyle, costume, Master Sword weapon camo, and Hylian shield accessory!
