PSU's first expansion was (silently) announced right when the game launched.. but no details were revealed about it until a few days ago, when a Famitsu article unveiled some very interesting screenshots and information regarding the game..
Scans of the article can be found here: http://www.tgfcer.com/club/thread-5846575-1-1.html Some highlights seem to be.. PSO style clothing, PSO weaponry, New weapon types including Whips and Slicers, and a return of the Mag's - though as one of the new weapon types this time apparently? And as it would seem, possibly even a return to the planet Ragol itself.. (It isn't clear, but the images speak for themselves somewhat.. that definitely looks like Forest 1 from PSO.) Not sure how many people here actually play Phantasy Star Universe, but I personally find all of this information to be rather exciting.. since as nice of a game as PSU is, it is severely lacking a lot of the charm PSO had... |

I'm pretty sure the Mags are described as left-handed casting weapons. Mainly looking forward to slicers myself, but the new Barba Ray could be fun to fight.
...Is it just me, or does that HUmar costume seem to have a Skyly section ID on it? Looking forward to this, either way. Slicers have been sorely missed, and some extra variety in weapons could never hurt. (Seriously, the normal game has what, 8 S-ranks per weapon type? Compared to PSO which has some 20 rares per... it's a bit lacking.) Challenge mode would always be a plus, if it's added. I know there's text in the normal game for it. |

I imagine the ID slot on the HUmar outfit will change color depending on the element of the lineshield you're wearing.. At least, that's what makes the most sense to me at this point. 
And yea, the Mag's are apparently returning as left handed Force weaponry.. Quite interested in that, since it means you'll be able to use an actual melee weapon in your main hand.. (Sabers, Claws, and even a Slicer from the looks of things..) The whip weapon type caught me by surprise too, I think people have wanted one of those since the original PSO launched.. |

Hmm, not many PSU players here I see..
Well worth noting, the official site for the expansion is now up too, which can be found here: http://illuminus.phantasystaruniverse.jp/ Doesn't seem to be much on it that isn't already known, but it's more than likely a good idea to keep an eye on it in case of updates. |
