Bandai has officially announced that the new game inspired by the Sword Art Online: Alicization anime is yet another victim of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The postponement moved the launch to July instead of May , and aims to preserve, above all, the development team and consumers.
Sword Art Online Alicization Lycoris retells the Alicization arc , however, with different events, as we will have the inclusion of an original character: Medina Orthinanos.
Something similar to other games in the franchise, where we have the character Kureha in SAO: Fatal Bullet and Rain in SAO: Lost Song.
It is possible to notice in the game's most recent trailer the presence of some characters that appeared in “War Of Underworld” , leading us to believe that the game could cover even this most updated part of the anime.
As for the character Medina, we see that she has a strong bond with the Administrator, and will feel a certain resentment towards Kirito due to his achievements in the first part of Alicization.
trailer unfolds , she appears to join in, or at least give our protagonist a break.
And if no further delays occur, the game will be available in July for: PS4, Xbox One and PC
