The Phantasy Star ZERO logo

Phantasy Star ZERO (ファンタシースターZERO, also called PHANTASY STAR 0 in the logo, and abbreviated as PS0) is the latest addition to the long-running Phantasy Star series. It is exclusive to the Nintendo DS and is scheduled for a Japanese release on December 25, 2008. The game takes place in an all-new continuity, albeit one that is heavily inspired by Phantasy Star Online. As such, the game has no meaningful story ties to the Phantasy Star Universe series (or any other existing Phantasy Star game, for that matter).

The official site states the name ZERO is intended to invoke a feeling of 'a return to the origin.' The developers have also said that they chose the abbreviation PS0 deliberately to emphasize the connection to Phantasy Star Online.

Details on the game are currently sparse.
