BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Europe has announced today new
features and characters for upcoming Action-RPG
SWORD ART ONLINE: HOLLOW REALIZATION
.
The
Emotion Void System is a key feature for in-game
communication between characters. With it, each character has its
own personality represented by emotions that can be checked in the
status menu; and players will have to be careful because these
emotions can influence characters’ skills on the
battle-field. The more they maintain their bonds with the members
of the team, the more efficient they will be during fights. Through
this feature, the mystery around Premiere deepens further: at first
glance, the girl seems to have no emotion, but once players
interact and enter battle with her they will see her emotions
develop.
Well-known for selling information to gamers in
Sword Art Online,
Argo will once again help Kirito and his friends
in their adventures in
Sword Art Origin’s world. Players will be able to
team up with this new character and benefit from her experience to
progress in the game. Lastly, new big bosses
Abyss the Imperial Taurus and
Grand Admiral Taurus will be giving players a hard
time, as these two giant Tauruses can team up to become one boss
with powerful combo attacks. Players will also face
Summon the Fate Dominator, and will have to deal
with its unpredictable attacks.
SWORD ART ONLINE: HOLLOW REALIZATION
will be available in Autumn 2016. The game will be
distributed physically and digitally for both PlayStation®4 and
PlayStation®Vita in Europe, Middle-East, Africa and
Australasia.
