Sword Art Online Variant Showdown Returns After Extended Maintenance!
Remember SAOVS, Bandai Namco's action RPG launched in November 2022? After an unexpectedly long "never-ending maintenance" period that began in September 2023, SAOVS is back! Initially slated to return this summer (2024), the game's relaunch has finally arrived, following extensive work to address core functionality issues.
What's New in the Re-released SAOVS?
The relaunch features Battle Royal Season 1, a four-player arena battle where the player with the most knockouts wins. Participate in League Matches to earn titles and accessories. This season runs until December 30th.
Returning players who endured the maintenance break are rewarded with 5 Sword Spark Mito Pickup Scout Tickets as part of the Returning Player Campaign.
A Restart Celebration event, offering up to 100 free Scouts, login bonuses, and mission rewards, runs until January 30th, 2025. Players also have a limited-time chance to obtain the SSR Sword Spark Mito (Light-elemental fighter), and new SSR Ability Cards, "Destroyer of Destiny" and "Seasoned Comrades," available until January 6th, 2025.
See the changes for yourself! Watch the latest trailer below and download the game from the Google Play Store.
