5th Anniversary Quests

Phantasy Star Online 2 aims to celebrate its 5th Anniversary by releasing a new quest per week. These quests will commemorate each of the game's episodic expansions, starting with [Special Infiltration Training: Episode 1]. Expect to see various bosses and locales that debuted in the first episode.

Play freely with friends or strangers without fear of failure, as the quest will clear even if time expires. Players will be able to claim their loot from the container that appears once the quest is over.

[Special Infiltration] will also reward players with Titles for clearing the quest on any difficulty, and S-Ranking the quest on Extra Hard.

Web Panel Event and Exam

Held alongside the 5th Anniversary is the interlocking Web Panel event. During its first iteration, players can earn points by defeating bosses within certain quests. These points will be tallied at the official site to unlock a plethora of prizes.

Players will also be able to participate in the first ever ARKS Licensure Exam. Various quiz questions will be presented daily, giving wonderful rewards based on the number of correct responses.
