Yes, it was only a matter of time. After all of the cool screenshots and gameplay videos we've seen you just knew something would come up.
The PSO2 Alpha Test client download site is now up and running (you need an account authorized for the alpha test to log in and download the client, though.) Participants that have downloaded and installed the client are apparently reporting that the game does, in fact, use nProtect GameGuard. Though this is truly a sad discovery, it's not cause for concern yet. GameGuard could be an extra layer of security on top of vastly improved server code. We probably won't be able to make that determination until the game goes live to the general public.
Of course, this could just be temporary. Other online games have ditched GameGuard in their retail releases after using it in beta tests. Maybe Sega will come around.
