Earlier this year, Bandai Namco and developer Aquria revealed that they were working on a new entry in the
Sword Art Online series — more specifically, on a new game based on the
Sword Art Online: Alicization anime series — and that it was being developed for the PlayStation 4, Xbox one, and PC(digital).
While the developers release an action-packed gameplay trailer with the announcement for
Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris, they didn't give fans an official release date for the game — and we finally have some great news to share.
Just today, Bandai Namco has released a brand-new gameplay trailer for
Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris, which not only shows off the game's open-world and third person combat, but also reveals that the game will finally become available on the
22nd of May in 2020, so be sure to check it out down below and let us know what you think about it.
