Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe began streaming a gameplay trailer focusing on monster battles for Sword Art Online Lost Song on Tuesday. The game launched for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita in North America on Tuesday.
Bandai Namco Entertainment America also began streaming the North American launch trailer. The video is the same as the European launch trailer.
The game shipped for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita in Japan on March 26, and for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita in Europe on November 13.
The game is set in the continent of Svart Alfheim, with the flying city of LINE at its center. Here, the player can prepare and decide on their party and set out on quests. The game's features include 3D flight-based combat.
Producer Yōsuke Futami said in January that the game would include 20 to 30 hours of gameplay. There are no specific endings for each character, but the game includes special, character-specific episodes. Futami also said that five to ten multiplayer quests would be available from the onset of the game, and that completing quests in story mode will increase the areas and quests available in multiplayer mode.
Bandai Namco Entertainment will release the "Game Director's Edition" in Japan on November 19. The "Game Director's Edition" release will include the Sword Art Online: Lost Song and Sword Art Online Re: Hollow Fragment games for the PS4 as well as a product code for downloadable costumes for both games. The games will also ship separately for the PS4 on the same day.
