New SWORD ART ONLINE Animated Film Releases Worldwide February 18th

Trailer Movie Sword Art Online Ordinal Scale Anime about 7 years agoby Mick Joest

Sword Art Online: Ordinal Scale will be simultaneously releasing worldwide on February 18, 2017. Anime News Network writes the animated film will screen in about 1,000 theaters around the world the day of its release, though it's still unclear exactly what that "simultaneous" release means (presumably it means it'll be available online as well, but we'll see).

The new film will be a one-off adventure featuring a new technology that allows users to play games using advanced AR technology. Kirito isn't a fan of the new tech as it forces him to use his real body, which isn't nearly as dominant as his virtual body.

The whole adventure looks to be loads more entertaining than the second season of the series. I know I'm not the only one who thought the show completely collapsed at that point, right? Check out a trailer for the new film below.
