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) 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 in Winter '08. 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.'

Details on the game are currently sparse.

Features

  • Has a single-player story mode as well as a 1-4 player multi mode that can be played online over local wireless or Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.
  • Players can create their own characters in both modes, choosing from 3 races (presumably human, newman and android) and 14 classes based on classes from Phantasy Star Online.
  • Multi mode will allow for communications, where players can draw images or text to send to their teammates via Pictochat.
  • Revealed areas include the Glacea Rivine, Riou Snowfields, Ozett Swamp and Dylon City.
  • The game will take place on the Earth and its moon.
  • Rappies will appear.

Classes

There are currently 8 classes confirmed, with another 6 yet to be revealed. They are similar to Phantasy Star Online in that each class is in reality a combination of race, gender and an archetypical class type (Hunter, Ranger or Force).
