SAO v0.2.2

5.0 (1 votes)

Overview

The story takes place in a near future. Our protagonist is one of the lucky few, who were able to log in into a brand new online game that launched this day. It's one of many other games using the recently developt full-dive technology. The full-dive technology allows the player to fully emerge into a virtual world. There are nearly no boundaries regarding this technology - even the flow of time can be altered and because of this, it quickly became popular in society as a whole...

The hype around this particular game was gigantic in certain communitys, since no one knew what it is about. The rather unknown developers published no trailers or any kind of ingame footage at all. The only information that has been leaked is that this is a competitive game in which the winner(s) will receive a huge sum of money and the number of participants is limited. This information could be considered true, because the developers were sponsored by a large company. So thousands and thousands of people tried to log in at release day, but only a few, including you, were lucky enough...
