'''Phantasy Star ZERO''' (ファンタシースターＺＥＲＯ, also called ''PHANTASY STAR 0'' in the logo) is the latest addition to the long-running ''Phantasy Star'' series. It is exclusive to the Nintendo DS and is scheduled for a Japanese release on December 25, 2008. The game takes place in an all-new continuity, albeit one that is heavily inspired by ''Phantasy Star Online''. As such, the game has no meaningful story ties to the ''Phantasy Star Universe'' series (or any other existing ''Phantasy Star'' game, for that matter).

Pre-release info

The Phantasy Star ZERO logo

Phantasy Star ZERO (ファンタシースターＺＥＲＯ, also called PHANTASY STAR 0 in the logo, and abbreviated as PS0) is the latest addition to the long-running Phantasy Star series. It is exclusive to the Nintendo DS and has been available in Japan as of December 25, 2008. The game takes place in an all-new continuity, albeit one that is heavily inspired by Phantasy Star Online. As such, the game has no meaningful story ties to the Phantasy Star Universe series (or any other existing Phantasy Star game, for that matter).

The official site states the name ZERO is intended to invoke a feeling of 'a return to the origin.' The developers have also said that they chose the abbreviation PS0 deliberately to emphasize the connection to Phantasy Star Online.

PS0 is slated for a Fall 2009 release in the United States as well as a Winter 2009 release in Europe.
