Accel World vs. Sword Art Online Announced

Bandai Namco today announced Accel World vs. Swort Art Online, an anime crossover between two franchises from the mind of Reki Kawahara. The crossover action RPG title will be available digitally for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStatoin Vita this summer.

The worlds of Sword Art Online and Accel World have begun to merge! In the midst of the chaos, the strongest Burst Linkers from Accel World and Alfheim Online Players from Sword Art Online must come together in a war of the worlds to challenge the Seven Kings of Pure Color and rescue a dear friend from the clutches of Personna Babel.

Players will build out three-person teams with their favorite characters, all with unique special abilities, from both the Sword Art Online and Accel World series. Sword Art Online characters will be able to utilize the fairy flight mechanic from ALfheim Online as well as magic, while Accel World characters will have access to Acceleration and special techniques. By mixing and matching characters from both worlds, players will be able to create an unstoppable team. Players will also be able to team up with three other friends to battle rivals in online multiplayer modes.
