The SEGA Forums have the news that the PC and PS2 servers for Phantasy Star Online will close on March 31, 2010. Word is: "SEGA would like to extend its sincere thanks to those who have played on the PC/PS2 servers over the past several years. The final update for PC/PS2 servers will be this January 29th, 2010, which will start the long-awaited MAG+ event. This event will receive the same updates & web support as the event on the Xbox 360 servers." They also add that the game will be free for the remainder of its run: "Please note that after January 29th 2010, no new PSU subscriptions will be available for purchase for PC/PS2. Those who are subscribed as of that time will be able to play, for free, until service closure." A subsequent post to that forum offers regret over the change, and discusses the future of the game in the west on Xbox 360. Thanks Massively.
