You can’t mix-and-match a type 1 basewear clothing with a type 2 outerwear, for example. However, clothing is still restricted to body types. You can make mecha girls that uses the blocky full-robo body parts exclusive to males, for example.

Race and gender restrictions have been removed, so you can mix and match your character bodytype with different faces and other race-specific features from PSO2. New Genesis revamps the existing character creator, giving you more freedom to make your own waifu, husbando or an abomination just for the fun of it. And a good serving of fanservice options too. It’s up there among the best character creators in an MMO, especially so if you like the game’s choice of aesthetic: anime characters. The big selling point of PSO2 is its robust character creation tool.

New Genesis, New Waifu/Husbando/Abomination It’s a fresh start, but the original is still intact for everyone to access. Think of it as Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn, except Sega isn’t nuking the original game. New Genesis brings a major graphics overhaul, a new gameplay loop and several tweaks and differences to combat. It’s a new version of PSO2 that every player (even returning ones) need to at least play the prologue before being able to access good old base PSO2.

PSO2 New Genesis could have been a standalone game, but it’s not. Now that the first week of launch has passed, I’ve played enough to share some thoughts on the state of PSO2 NGS as it is now.

It’s a fresh new start for the long-running free-to-play MMORPG, a much-needed one too. Phantasy Star Online 2 has gotten a big revamp with Phantasy Star Online 2.
