Phantasy Star Collection is a compilation of Phantasy Star games that was released on the Game Boy Advance on November 26, 2002 in the United States and in March 2003 in Europe. This version, produced by Digital Eclipse, altered the classic titles in order to function within the Game Boy Advance's resolution. Strangely, the bundle omitted the fan-favorite Phantasy Star IV: The End of the Millennium from its selection of games, only offering Phantasy Star, Phantasy Star II, and Phantasy Star III: Generations of Doom.

The plot of the original series focuses around the heroic exploits of the residents of the Algol planetary system as they defend their worlds from the agent of the Profound Darkness, Dark Falz. The main planets the heroes in each game visit in Algol include Palma, Motavia, and Dezoris.
