Important Notice Regarding AC Scratch Tickets (11/25)

1 December 20201 December 2020
by Ani

In PSO2: NGS, which is planned to go into service in 2021, the system through which the items you know as AC Scratch Ticket items are obtained will be different, and you will not be able to redeem AC Scratch Ticket consumable items that were purchased in PSO2 Global for PSO2: NGS items.

Information about the new type of system that will be used in PSO2: NGS will be shared at a later date on the official website.

Therefore, the AC Scratch Ticket consumable items currently available in PSO2 Global will no longer be available for purchase as of the regular maintenance on

12/22 10:00PM PDT
12/23 07:00AM CET

If you wish to draw an AC Scratch Ticket after the AC Scratch Ticket consumable items are no longer available, please do so by visiting a Scratch Ticket Terminal and selecting the menu option “Play Scratch Ticket for 200AC”, or “Play 12 Scratch Tickets 12 times with 2200AC” – which allow for AC to be spent directly. Please utilize these instead.

Also, please note that pre-purchased AC Scratch Ticket consumable items can still be used through the existing PSO2 system for AC Scratch Ticket collections.
