Armament full control unlocked - new details released for Sword Art Online Alicization Lycoris
Bandai Namco have released more details for Sword Art Online Alicization Lycoris, the next chapter in the saga that is Sword Art Online. In the game, players experience the story up to the battle of the Central Cathedral, before players get to experience a completely original story, exclusive for the game.
On top of that, players will get to experience the ‘Tactic Emulating AI System’ feature, which will encourage players to create and try out new synergies with their partners. This feature allows partners to memorize specific commands and autonomously use them depending on the situation and the player’s requests (e.g.: attack, defense).
The trailer also introduces three more playable characters from the Integrity Knights:
Bercouli: One of the founders of the Rulid Village and fierce swordsman, his “Time Piercing Sword” grants him the ability to slash through time. He can trade his sword for a claymore, dealing massive damage while also hurting the player, making it a powerful but risky weapon.
Linel and Fizel: Part of the Integrity Knights, the deadly duo perfected their assassination skills when undergoing the Administrator’s experiments. They both fight using a dagger, benefiting from its high mobility to destabilize their opponents and take the advantage in aerial combats.
Finally, in the games online mode players will be able to customize their appearance and explore the Underworld with their avatar. Through the multiplayer mode, up to 4 players will be able to fight altogether, bringing along their partners for a total of 8 characters.
The game is coming soon to PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, the rumors of the Switch version are just that for now.
