The Japanese PC PSU servers will be receiving their first set of "Update 3rd" content next week to coincide with the start of a new event.
Sega's Japanese PSU Web site announced the update on Wednesday. Three new field areas will be added to the game, the first such content update since Ambition of the Illuminus was released nearly four years ago.
The release of this content coincides with the start of Maximum Attack Infinity, a special crossover event with Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity. The event runs until Thursday, May 26.
Of course, it goes without saying that players on the US/EU servers are probably going to be grumbling about this for awhile. Now that the Japanese game has begun to get legitimately new content, it will be even more difficult to swallow the schedule of mostly rehashed updates on the Xbox 360 servers.
There has been speculation in the US/EU community that "Update 3rd" could steal many of the hardcore Xbox 360 PSU players away from the regional servers. Whether or not that happens remains to be seen. However, if it does happen, Sega should make a note of it when deciding on region-separated servers for PSO2.
