Sword Art Online Variant Showdown Returns After Extended Maintenance!
Remember Bandai Namco's action RPG, SAOVS (Sword Art Online Variant Showdown), which launched in November 2022? After an unexpectedly long "maintenance" period that began in September 2023, it's finally back! While initially slated to return this summer (2024), the developers required extra time to address core functionality issues.
What's New in the Re-released SAOVS?
The game relaunches with Battle Royal Season 1, a four-player arena where the player with the most knockouts wins. Compete in League Matches to earn titles and accessories. This season runs until December 30th.
Returning players receive a special gift: 5 Sword Spark Mito Pickup Scout Tickets!
A "Restart Celebration" event offers even more rewards! Until January 30th, 2025, players can earn up to 100 free Scouts, claim login bonuses, and complete missions for epic prizes.
Limited-time opportunities also exist to obtain the SSR Sword Spark Mito (a Light-elemental fighter), and new SSR Ability Cards, "Destroyer of Destiny" and "Seasoned Comrades," available until January 6th, 2025.
