What About The Vita?
This section below is based on personal opinion and has nothing to do with Sega's press releases. We've been seeing a lot of questions about the Vita version and we hope to bring some clarity to the situation.
At this current time, the only major PSO2 service that is not online is the smartphone version. That being said, the majority of people outside of Japan will have an extremely difficult time connecting to the servers. If you can connect outside of Japan, congratulations, you are one of the lucky few who won't be experiencing any problems.
July 3rd Barely anyone from Japanese territories are reporting issues with error 630 and 107. Though Sega will continue to take measures in addressing the issue, there is NO obligation for them to have to have this corrected so players outside of Japan can connect to the server.
