SEGA announced today that the first class update to Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis is launching on August 4th, 2021 with the Braver class making its debut. The Braver uses 2 new weapons, the Katana and Photon Bow. The Katana features the "Katana PA Combo" with 3 levels of action changes when the same Photon Art is used repeatedly. The Photon Bow deals consistent damage in long-range combat and can be used while moving around.

Besides the new class, the August 4th update also adds some new side story quests, new enemies, and more.

Players can also expect new AC Scratch Tickets with the "Sunshine Marine Stars" tickets launching on August 4 and featuring marine-themed outfits and ice cream emotes. On August 11, the "Oracle Renewal Collection II" hits the Revival AC Scratch Ticket store. The featured items were previously released in the Japanese version, but this is the first time this scratch ticket will be available in the global version. "Pure Maid Dress" and "Cursed Coat", both of which were popular back in PSO2, are coming to NGS. Cool off with AC Scratch Ticket "Summer Sky Seaside", featuring swimwear and summery emotes, launching August 18.
