Fun Facts

Did you know these bits of trivia?

Sega wanted to take Phantasy Star in a new direction with this game, so an almost completely new staff was assembled. Only Hirondo Saiki had returned from Phantasy Star II.

Most of the staff had previously worked together on Golden Axe.

Izuho "Ippo" Takeuchi would be the only staff member of Phantasy Star III to return for Phantasy Star IV.

Most people in the Special Thanks credits were staffers from Phantasy Star or Phantasy Star II.
