We’ve learned some very interesting details for Sword Art Online: Lost Song at this year’s Taipei Game Show.

We’ve learned (via Dengeki Online) that not only is the game roughly 20-30 hours long, but Sword Art Online: Lost Song producer Yosuke Futami is looking to make a Playstation 4 version of the game. The news was confirmed at this year’s Taipei Game Show, where Futami talked up the game.


First up, we have confirmation that Sword Art Online: Lost Song will take between 20 to 30 hours for players to complete. While the game allows you to play as characters other than Kirito, there are no character-specific endings unfortunately. However, each character has their own unique episode(s).

The game’s online multiplayer is going to be available from the get-go, although you’ll unlock more regions to explore as you complete more quests. This leads to more quests that are available when you play online, and it’s worth mentioning that Futami mentions a large number of multiplayer quests.

You’ll be able to gather raw materials online and offline, although it’s reportedly much more difficult to obtain them offline. You’ll also be able to tackle stronger enemies online, a result of more challenging quests. A tease was let out, mentioning a post-launch update that is going to add a big new feature to the game’s online mode.

Both Eir Aoi and Luna Haruna are doing theme songs for the game, “Sincere no Hikari” and “Yoru no Niji wo Koete,” respectfully. Both of these theme songs are focused on the two new characters, Seven and Rain.

Finally, when asked about making a PlayStation 4 version, Futami exclaimed, “I want to do it!” Eir Aoi even said that she wants a Playstation 4 version, as well.

Sword Art Online: Lost Song is coming to both PlayStation 3 and PS Vita in Japan on March 26th.
