Yo, Dog. I heard you liked MMOs, so we put an MMO anime in your MMORPG so you could MMO while you MMO… Anyone else kind of miss that meme? Anywho if you’re a player of the free-to-play sci-fi fantasy MMORPG, Phantasy Star Online 2, and you’re also a fan of the anime Sword Art Online, and you also live in Japan you might want to pay attention. Why, you ask? Because there’s currently a crossover event underway.

 

The event includes a campaign featuring Sword Art Online protagonists, Kirito and Asura. By participating in the campaign players gain access to items from the world of Sword Art Online, such as Kirito’s sword.

This event may be exclusive to Japan, at least for now. If that changes we’ll be sure to let you know. Thanks to the fine folks at SAO Wikia for making this article possible.
