Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis Previews New Waker Class Coming In August

Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis will be getting a new summoner class called the Waker that can summon Familiars to aid them in battle.

Unlike the Summoner’s pets, Familiars don’t need to be raised and require no additional effort on the part of the player. They come in three different types and can easily be switched to match the ’s playstyle or to adapt to a given situation. Familiars can also team up to unleash a powerful ultimate attack on enemies.

Combat gameplay footage of the Waker can be found in the latest NGS Headline episode below while the class itself is scheduled to arrive sometime in August.
