The trailer is related to the Japanese version of the game, so we don’t know exactly when the content will be released in the budding English version. 

We get to see a new photon art, a new pet, a new raid boss coming in July, and a new successor class to be released in August.

We also take a look at a collaboration with Sega’s recently released (in Japan) game Sakura Wars. This include costumes for the hero and heroine Seijuro Kamiyama and Sakura Amamiya and the mecha which appear in the game.

Last, but not least, we also learn that the PS Vita version of Phantasy Star Online 2, which has been available in Japan for a long time, will be discontinued on August 19, 2020.

At the moment, only Xbox One and PC versions have been announced for the west. That being said, Phil Spencer himself went on record mentioning that the game will likely make it to other platforms, even if no further information was shared on that topic.

In the meanwhile, Sega is preparing to launch the sixth expansion on PS4, Nintendo Switch, and PC in Japan, where the game is still going strong, enough to get a physical release.
