For all intents and purposes, the decidedly verbose next title called Sword Art Online Alicization Lycoris looks like it just might be that title.Īll we’ve seen thus far are a myriad of trailers showing off the upcoming open-world RPG due to land on J(on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Steam) but those trailers are inspirational far beyond prior trailers that we’ve seen for the franchise. Still, Sword Art Online is a beloved franchise and it’s likely that Bandai Namco will continue to plug away at the IP until they can land upon something that can capture the imagination, and wallets, of an RPG fanbase beyond the anime.Īrguably, that’s the sign of a distinguished series: one that can stretch its fanbase well beyond the original material and enrapture millions of players that have never even seen the source material. Yet they still have many trappings of standard JRPGs, ranging from the strange dialogue progression that will have users scratching their heads to shoe-horned plot-points, menus within menus on top of other menus, and generally iffy combat. Worth noting that this isn’t to say that the previously released titles have fallen short for Bandai’s primary demographic on the Steam platform alone, every core Sword Art Online title is, at the least, positively recommended by the players.
