Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet brings an exciting twist to the popular action RPG series by adding third-person shooter elements into the game, forming a unique hybrid shooter/RPG/action title that balances gun and sword play with skill and gadget combat to create a new dynamic experience.

Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet will feature an engrossing, original story supervised by Sword Art Online creator Reki Kawahara, that takes players into the world of “Gun Gale Online,” from the popular Sword Art Online II season of the series.

Players will be able to dive right into the immersive landscape developed by Dimps, and enjoy robust environments and textures powered by Unreal Engine 4. Using agile double jumps, air dashes, wall-to-wall repelling, and quick weapon swapping, players will engage in brisk platforming and shooting gameplay as they embark on epic adventures. Rounding out the package, full multiplayer cooperative and competitive modes will let two to eight players collaborate and compete against one another online.

Bazalt Joe, is a top GGO (Gun Gale Online) rank player who likes the protagonist’s ArFa-sys (Artificial Financial Adviser System). This humanoid is equipped with a particularly rare “Type-X” artificial intelligence and can think, take action and provide a variety of support. Joe is also cheerful and popular among the squadron members. He is persistent and never complains about the result of the game. When victorious he provides valuable information and gives good items.

The Gun and Sword Special equipment will be available when players clear a certain event with Kirito. This equipment will be able to deal with any situation from short to long range! Furthermore exclusive skills for this Gun and Sword Special equipment will also delight the fans!

Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet will be coming to PS4, Xbox One, and PC (Steam) on February 23, 2018.
