Phantasy Star Online 2

Phantasy Star Online 2 is a free-to-play multiplayer action RPG developed and published by SEGA. A SEA service was published from 2014 until 2017 by Asiasoft Corporation under PlayPark and was marketed in the Philippines under the Level Up! brand.
Officially, Asiasoft's service was only available to the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Indonesia.[1] The SEA service is the first English version of the game.
The game is currently available on Steam under the name Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis.
About
Phantasy Star Online 2 SEA's closed beta ran from April 10 to April 13, 2014.[1] The game launched its open beta on May 29, 2014,[2] with beta participants having a head start on May 27, 2014.[3] There were no IP blocks during the closed beta; however, it was implemented after its launch.
The game was initially marketed under Level Up!, which Asiasoft Corporation earlier acquired in March 2014, instead of PlayPark
The service was shut down on May 26, 2017. No reason was stated for its closure.[4][note 1]

Note
- The service was shut down exactly 3 years after its open beta launch, which most likely means the license was not renewed rather than pre-emptively terminated.
