Actually, the new Sword Art Online should have been available soon, that is, in May, but unfortunately nothing will come of it now. Again, the coronavirus is to blame.

The corona virus is changing the world and can also have obvious effects on the gaming industry. The developers of the new Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris now had to find out, as the originally planned release date in May can no longer be celebrated in view of the pandemic.
The new Sword Art Online should have been available since May 22, 2020, but “due to the current situation, this is unfortunately not possible,” says a statement by Bandai Namco. As a result, the launch had to be postponed until July 10, 2020 for almost two months.
Executive producer Yosuke Futami comments on the decision as follows: “We are working hard on Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris because we know that our fans are expecting a new Sword Art Online. But due to the current situation we had to make the difficult decision. We gathered to postpone the release until July 10. We believe this is the best way to deliver the best version of the game to our fans. “
Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris will be available for Xbox One, PS4, and PC starting July 10, 2020.
