Final Fantasy XIV invades Phantasy Star Online 2 in an odd collaboration

How cool are crossover events? While some people might decry them as shameless marketing ploys, there is something undeniably cool about mixing it up between two franchises the way we often do in our geeky heads.

Over in Japan, Final Fantasy XIV is collaborating with Phantasy Star Online 2 (western release date: haha, go back to your corner) to inject a bit of Eorzea into the sci-fi MMO. In summer 2016, FFXIV’s Odin boss and some costumes will be making their way into PSO2. We might point out that PSO2 has a tradition thus far of doing these kinds of crossovers with other titles, including those with Tales of Zestiria and Valkyria Chronicles.

While you might not be in PSO2 to enjoy this collaboration, you can at least see a preview of what it will be like in a video after the break.
