Phantasy Star Portable is the third iteration of SonicTeam's Phantasy Star Universe series. The game is exclusive to the Sony PSP and is scheduled to be released in Japan July 31, 2008. While Portable offers no online capabilities and thus is not connected with the PC, PS2 or Xbox 360 servers, four player multi-player is available via ad hoc. In addition, there is a single-player story mode where players accompany Vivienne, a new CAST prototype from GRM, to investigate recent terrorist activities across Gurhal.

New features
Phantasy Star Portable will introduce a number of new features which will set it apart from its console predecessors.
- While not an online multiplayer game, Portable will allow players to import their character data from the PC/PS2 servers to the PSP game.
- Character import will carry over the following data:
- Name, race and sex
- Outward appearance (excluding facial features)
- Voice type and pitch
- Level (above LV20 will be reduced, however)
- Clothes and parts
- The following data will not be carried over:
- Equipment (weapons, line shields, units, etc.)
- Inventory items (including personal inventory, common box and partner machine storage)
- Meseta
- Guardian type
- Photon arts
- Partner machine
- Character import will carry over the following data:
- While in a party for wireless multiplayer, if an "important item" is collected, it will be distributed to all party members. Exact details on what constitutes an "important item" are unknown.
- Drop items in a mission will change based on the Guardian type of the party leader.
- Movement in cities will be changed so that you can select a location to go to from a menu instead of walking there.
- Weapon grinding will be changed to get rid of the chance of failure. However, instead of stats increasing at predetermined values, increases will be random.
- A special mission will be released on the PC/PS2 version of Ambition of the Illuminus which will commemorate the release of Phantasy Star Portable. This mission will be single player only.
