Key Features

  • 2026, Sword Art: Origin, a new VRMMORPG has emerged. Kirito meets a mysterious NPC and receives a cryptic message. This game, though familiar to him, is not the same as the one he escaped years ago…
  • Original storytelling supervised by Reki Kawahara, creator of Sword Art Online.
  • Massive expansive world with a stronger sense of adventure.
  • Multiplayer Mode to enjoy the game with 3 other players.
  • Feels like its MMORPG origins thanks to MMORPG-like interface, 16-character teams and fierce raid boss battles.
