Bandai Namco lifted the lid of its new RPG Echoes of Aincrad, which is set in the Sword Art Online universe but appears to be its own thing. Aincrad is the world in which players will step into to explore its corners, fight dangerous monsters, and save Aincrad from falling. Players will be able to create their own characters and pick a partner that will be a companion on the journey.
Echoes of Aincrad will have different cities to explore filled with their own quests to tackle. Players will need to upgrade their skills, equipment, and companion to take on the more difficult challenges and bosses. Three different versions of Echoes of Aincrad have been made available for pre-order, and they are as follows.
- Standard Edition – base game with a pre-order bonus of the proto-elucidator weapon pack.
- Digital Deluxe Edition – Standard Edition content, death game mode early unlock, expansion DLC, and a starter pack that includes 50,000 Col, 10x Healing Potions, 10x Mystic Crystal, and 10x High SP Potion
- Digital Ultimate Edition – All Deluxe Edition items plus digital artbook, digital soundtrack, special anime, and armour pack.
Echoes of Aincrad will launch on July 10th for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series XS.
