I'll get the one burning question I'm sure a lot of people out of the way first. The game is free to play, and the premium content will thus far be coming in the way of perfectly normal items such as more character slots, extra storage, and aesthetic items. It will also gate your access to things like opening up a shop or just trading in general (I don't even...). There might be other things, but I'm not aware of them in game at the moment.
Edit: Timed license stuff like the "my room" and "trading" licenses come in 30, 90, or 120 days tiers, and for trading licenses specifically, costs 10, 20, or 30 Arks Cash respectively. I don't quite remember for other stuff. I'll bet that that translates to 100 yen / 1 USD per 10 AC. Of course, this is the closed beta pricing, so it might still be subject to change.
Feel free to ask me questions about mechanics you're interested in. But I won't be able to tell you if it's better/worse than the first PSO considering my experience with that game was largely based on watching another friend play it during middle school
