If you haven’t already heard, SAO / Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris will be delayed. Its original release date was set for 22 May 2020, now to be 9 July for Japan, and 10 July for the west. The upcoming action RPG game was slated for release on 22 May 2020 for the Southeast Asia region (Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia & Philippines). The game is available for Playstation 4, Xbox One and PC via Steam.

As we’ve come to expect, SAO: Alicization Lycoris will be delayed due to the ongoing coronavirus / COVID-19 pandemic. Bandai Namco made the decision in order to protect the health and safety of their staff.

In the mean time, you can watch the trailer for the confirmed playable characters in the game below:

• Renly Synthesis Twenty-Seven: Part of the Integrity Knights, he battles against the Dark Territory forces as the leader of the Human Empire army. Renly is the only character who can use the Twin-Wing Blades weapons and especially the “Twin-Edged Wings”.
• Sheyta Synthesis Twelve: Integrity Knight also known as Sheyta the Silent Taciturn, the Administrator gave Sheyta a divine weapon able to slash any and all things, The Black Lily Sword.
• Sortiliena Serlut: Graduating second in her class at the Swordcraft Academy, Sortiliena was served by Kirito whom earned her respect. She uses her own battle style with Claymore-type weapons.

We’ll see if they decide to reveal more information with the pushed back release date.
