Bandai Namco Entertainment released Sword Art Online Variant Showdown on the 25th in both markets.
Sword Art Online Variant Showdown is a game celebrating the 10th anniversary of Sword Art Online. Unlike the original animation, the game unfolds as an original story featuring an unidentified player who loses some of the opponent’s memory in the fictional VR action game ‘Cross Edge’.
In celebration of the game’s release, Bandai Namco Entertainment will hold various game events such as Start Dash and Pickup Scout. In addition, various rewards will be presented to commemorate the achievement of 1 million pre-registrations. In addition, to commemorate the release of ‘Theatrical Version Sword Art Online -Progressive-Dark Darkness Scherzo’, a login bonus commemorating the release of the theatrical version was started together.
