| − | "Event" is the generalized name given to a period of time in which at least one limited-availability '''event''' occurs. Events can typically be split into two categories:
| + | [[Events]] refer to any specially themed, limited-time occurrence in ''Phantasy Star Universe''. These occurrences can include seasonal lobby and rare enemy changes, social or promotional events hosted by the game staff and major events in which players are brought together to work toward a similar, large-scale goal. For more information on the various types of events, please see the following articles. |
| | + | * [[Major events]] |
| | + | * [[GUARDIANS Boost Road]] |
| | + | * [[Golden Light Weeks]] {{360 version}} |
| | + | * [[Special Weeks]] {{JP version}} |
| | + | * [[Mission Spotlight]] {{360 version}} |
| | + | * [[GUARDIANS Limit Attack]] {{JP version}} |
| | + | * [[Seasonal events]] |
| | + | * [[GM events]] |
| | | | |
| − | * "Seasonal" events, such as Christmas or Halloween. These events are usually predictable in nature and have prepared festivities such as town decorations and/or themed monsters.
| + | == Site navigation == |
| − | * "Promotional" events. These are non-seasonal, often one-off, events or promotions. An example of this would be if Sega were to give a free room decoration to everyone who logged in on a given day. These events were observed in Blue Burst, with the "Maximum Attack" events.

| |
| − | | |
| − | This list is continuously updated as we experience new events in Phantasy Star Universe. As the game ages the list should thus become a comprehensive archive of past events and festivities:
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ===Halloween===
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Halloween event is well known as it occurred on the JP Phantasy Star Universe from October 20th and lasted until November 9th.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Known festivities included:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Modification of lobbies to include special Halloween decorations and music.
| |
| − | ** A [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfWMVeeeBRI&NR video] of these has been made and posted on YouTube.
| |
| − | * Rare Rappy Latan enemies that drop a Halloween-themed Rod called Pumpkin Head.
| |
| − | * A complete room theme for 5000 meseta.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This event was not run in 2006 for the English servers. The first and only maintenance before Halloween itself passed and the event was not added. Some users believe that it did not occur for various reasons:
| |
| − | | |
| − | # Unfairness to non-American regions, as due to release date differences the event would be exclusively available to North America and importers.
| |
| − | # The game was set up and released too soon before Halloween for there to be time to set it up.
| |
| − | # Sega America are likely more interested in game and network stability among other issues than running a non-essential event.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Halloween lobby theme is included on the [[For Brighter Day]] soundtrack, on Disc 2 (the "Neudaiz Side").
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ===Christmas=== | |
| − | | |
| − | [[Image:ChristmasLobby.gif|frame|Christmas: GUARDIANS Colony and Parum.]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | The first event to hit both the English PC/PS2 and Xbox 360 versions, but the second for the Japanese PC/PS2 version. It was introduced alongside [[Updates#Update_002|Update 002]] in the maintenance on December 8th 2006, and was concluded during [[Updates#Update_005|Update 005]] in the maintenance on December 26th 2006.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The components of this event were:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Modification of lobbies to include special Christmas decorations and music in the GUARDIANS Colony, Parum and Moatoob.
| |
| − | ** Apparently the Communion of Gurhal as Neudaiz' primary faith does not celebrate Christmas as there was no change.
| |
| − | * The rare [[Rappy]] enemies are celebrating, becoming [[Rappy Noel]]. Their sightings are still rare, but alongside the usual [[Rappy Feathers]] they can drop the room decoration [[My Room Accessories#Room Goods|Christmas Tree]].
| |
| − | * The reform ticket [[My Room Accessories#Reform Tickets|Christmas]], buyable in the Room Decorations shop in Clyez City 2F for 5,000 meseta and was available only during this event.
| |
| − | * The room decoration [[My Room Accessories#Room Goods|Wreath]] buyable in the Room Decorations shop in Clyez City for 10,000 meseta was available only during this event.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Christmas theme heard most notably in the cities of Clyez, Holtes and Dagora is found on the Phantasy Star Universe soundtrack [[For Brighter Day]], on Disc 3 (the "Moatoob Side").
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ===New Year===
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Image:NewYearsLobby.gif|frame|New Year's: GUARDIANS Colony and Neudaiz.]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | The second event to hit both the English PC/PS2 and Xbox 360 versions, but the second for the Japanese PC/PS2 version. It was introduced alongside [[Updates#Update_005|Update 005]] in the maintenance on December 26th 2006, and was concluded during [[Updates#Update_006|Update 006]] in the maintenance on January 11th 2007.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The components of this event were:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Modification of lobbies to include special New Year's decorations and music in the GUARDIANS Colony and Neudaiz.
| |
| − | ** Apparently Parum and Moatoob were still recovering from Christmas, as there was no change.
| |
| − | * The room decoration [[My Room Accessories#Room Goods|Bamboo]] buyable in the Room Decorations shop in Clyez City for 1,000 meseta was available only during this event.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The New Year theme heard most notably in the cities of Clyez and Ohtoku is found on the Phantasy Star Universe soundtrack [[For Brighter Day]], on Disc 1 (the "Parum Side").

| − | | |
| − | ===Winter===
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Image:WinterLobby.gif|frame|Winter: GUARDIANS Colony and Parum.]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | A somewhat unexpected event, this is the third consecutive event on the English Phantasy Star Universe servers (both PC/PS2 and Xbox 360). It was introduced alongside [[Updates#Update_006|Update 006]] in the maintenance on January 11th 2007, and was concluded during [[Updates#Update_009|Update 009]] in the maintenance on February 1st 2007.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The components of this event were:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Modification of lobbies to include special New Year's decorations and music in the GUARDIANS Colony and Parum.
| |
| − | ** Evidently one event over the last few weeks was too much for both Neudaiz and Moatoob - they're not participating in this one either.
| |
| − | * The room decoration [[My Room Accessories#Room Goods|Snowman]] buyable in the Room Decorations shop in Clyez City for 2,000 meseta is available only during this event.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This event makes extra use of the theme named "Christmas" found on the Phantasy Star Universe soundtrack [[For Brighter Day]], on Disc 3 (the "Moatoob Side").
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ===Valentine's Day===
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Image:ValentinesLobby.gif|frame|Valentine's Day: GUARDIANS Colony.]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | This event was introduced alongside [[Updates#Update_009|Update 009]] in the maintenance on January 11th 2007, and was concluded during [[Updates#Update_011|Update 011]] in the maintenance on February 16th 2007.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The components of this event were:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Modification of lobbies to include special Valentine's decorations and music in GUARDIANS Colony.
| |
| − | ** And none of the other planets, making this the first event which none of the three planets have partaken in.
| |
| − | * The Rappies are at it again. This time they're [[Rappy Amure]], sporting a pink "heart" getup.
| |
| − | ** These foes drop a room decoration called "BT Lovers".
| |
| − | ** Starting in the Lv.40-50 range, they also dropped [[Love Letter]], a synthesis material.
| |
| − | ** Lv.80 and above, they also drop [B] Kohibumiteri, the board for a female-only 10* [[Bows|bow]] which requires their Love Letter to synth.
| |
| − | * For the first time, no event-specific [[Room Goods]] - neither reform tickets nor decorations - were found in the Variety Shop.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The theme - sharing the event's name - is found on the Phantasy Star Universe soundtrack [[For Brighter Day]], on Disc 2 (the "Neudaiz Side").
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ===White Day===
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Image:WhiteDayLobby.gif|frame|White Day: GUARDIANS Colony.]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | This event was introduced alongside [[Updates#Update_013|Update 013]] in the maintenance on March 8th 2007, and will conclude during [[Updates#Update_014|Update 014]] in the maintenance on March 22nd 2007.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The components of this event are:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Modification of lobbies to include special "White Day" decorations and music in GUARDIANS Colony.
| |
| − | ** As with Valentine's Day: Parum, Neudaiz and Moatoob have not participated.
| |
| − | * [[Jaggo Amure]] replace regular rare enemy [[Jaggo]] during this event.
| |
| − | ** This seasonal enemy drops the [[WD Lovers]] room decoration.
| |
| − | ** Apparently just like their Rappy counterparts, they drop [[Love Letter]] (again, Lv.40-50 minimum).
| |
| − | ** Lv.80 and above, they drop [B] Loveheart Line, the board for an 8* [[Line Shields|Line Shield]].
| |
| − | * There are no [[Room Goods]] to be bought from the Variety Shop this event.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The lobby theme song shares the "Valentine's Day" track with the event of that name, just as the Winter event shared the "Christmas" track with the Christmas event.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ===Easter===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This event will be introduced alongside [[Updates#Update_014|Update 014]] in the maintenance on March 22nd 2007.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The festivities shall include:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Modification of lobbies to include special "Easter" decorations and music in GUARDIANS Colony.
| |
| − | ** The participation of the three planets for now remains unknown.
| |
| − | * It's the Rappies' turn again. For this outing they're [[Rappy Baska]] and sporting eggwear.
| |
| − | ** Their only confirmed drop thusfar is [B] Halp Serafi, presumably at Lv.80+ as with the Kohibumiteri and Loveheart Line.
| |
| − | ** It is likely that their mid-level (40-50 and above) synthesis material drop will be the [[Serafi Feather]] used to synthesise Halp Serafi.
| |
| − | ** Their all-levels decoration drop - should there be one - is unknown.
| |
| − | * Similarly, any potential [[Room Goods]] to be bought from the Variety Shop are unknown.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Phantasy Star Universe soundtrack [[For Brighter Day]] does not contain a theme specifically named or alluding to "Easter"! Among possible tunes that could be the event's theme, the most likely is probably called "Carnival", found on Disc 1 (the "Parum Side").
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ===Others===
| |
| − | | |
| − | The above are just the most obvious seasonal events. There are sure to be other, less predictable events. The [[For Brighter Day|soundtrack]] contains a few tracks which could be used for (and thus hint at) other events, including Carnival (Disc 1), Marriage (Disc 2), Cherry Blossom and Comedy (both Disc 3).

| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ==Promotional Events==
| |
| − | | |
| − | On the English PC/PS2 version of Phantasy Star Universe, there have been no Promotional Events, and there are none planned in the forseeable future. However, there is one Promotional Event imminent on the XBox 360 servers, and there has also been one noteworthy event on the Japanese PC/PS2 servers.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ===Sonic (XBox 360)===
| |
| − | | |
| − | The XBox 360 version ran a "Phantasy Star Universe Demo Weekend Promotion" which commenced Saturday, February 3rd, at midnight PST and concluding Monday, February 4th at midnight PST.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Users who played this demo and joined the PSU Xbox Live community received the [[Sonic]] decoration. In the run-up to this event it was believed that this meant an entirely new GUARDIANS License would need purchasing to receive the decoration, due to "official" response to the customer support form stating that much (see: [http://boards2.sega.com/psu_board/viewtopic.php?t=17857 here]). However this was found to be wrong an in practise users who'd played the demo received the figure even on accounts created back in October.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The statue was added to [[shared bank]] of the accounts of demo participants, as was the case with the JP Sonic event (below). There were no known cases of players having full shared banks on the moment of delivery so it is unsure what would have happened had the player had a full shared bank when it was delivered to demo participants.
| |
| − | | |
| − | More details on this event can be found [http://phantasystaruniverse.com/community_xboxdemo.php here].
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Sonic (JP)===
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Japanese PC/PS2 version has had one Promotional Event thusfar, and that was to award a free [[Sonic]] decoration to the [[shared bank]] of all players who registered their [http://segalink.jp/ SegaLink] accounts before July 31st, 2006 (one month before the game's release).
