Sword Art Online: Variant Showdown Returns After Year-Long Hiatus!

The action RPG (ARPG) Sword Art Online: Variant Showdown, which was pulled from app stores a year ago to address various issues, is back! This re-release boasts exciting new features, a revamped user interface (UI), and more.

Originally launched to considerable success, the game's temporary removal was a surprising move. However, fans of the popular anime series can now rejoice as they can once again immerse themselves in the world of Sword Art Online.

Variant Showdown faithfully adapts the anime's storyline, placing players in the shoes of Kirito and other iconic characters as they battle bosses and enemies within the virtual reality (VR) game, Sword Art Online.

This updated version introduces several key improvements:

  • Multiplayer Battles: Team up with two friends to conquer powerful bosses and earn rare rewards.
  • Enhanced Rewards: Higher-difficulty stages now offer armor as rewards, with quality depending on the challenge level.
  • Full Voice Acting: The main story is now fully voiced for an enhanced immersive experience.

A Second Chance?

The original decision to pull Variant Showdown from the market was controversial. While the new additions are promising, it remains to be seen if they will be enough to recapture players' interest. First impressions are crucial, but dedicated fans of Kirito and the Sword Art Online universe will undoubtedly welcome this return.
