Bandai Namco Moves SWORD ART ONLINE ALICIZATION LYCORIS Release Date to July

I have some unfortunate news for fans of Sword Art Online. Due to COVID-19, Bandai Namco has pushed the release date of the upcoming Sword Art Online Alicization Lycoris game to July 10. Yosuke Futami, executive producer for SAO games, released the following statement:

We have been working hard on SWORD ART ONLINE Alicization Lycoris for our fans who are looking forward to the next SWORD ART ONLINE title. Due to the ongoing world events, we have made the difficult decision to move the release date of SWORD ART ONLINE Alicization Lycoris to July 10, 2020. We believe that this is the best way to ensure that SWORD ART ONLINE fans are delivered the best SWORD ART ONLINE Alicization Lycoris experience.

I know a few people who will be extremely upset at the news. Are you going to make it until the new July release date? SAO Alicization Lycoris will launch on PC (via Steam), PS4, and Xbox One.
