Here’s the official announcement.

PSO2 New Genesis launched on Xbox consoles and PCs back in June 2021.

This doesn’t mean every version of Phantasy Star Online 2 will soon be available worldwide. There’s no news about the Nintendo Switch port. A cloud version of the MMO is available on the console in Japan. There was also, at one point, a Vita version available. People in Japan were able to play it until service ended in September 2020.

Phantasy Star Online 2 and PSO2 New Genesis will come to the PS4 on August 31, 2022. People can immediately play both games on the Xbox One, Xbox Series X (via backward compatibility), and PC worldwide.
