About

A reconstructed virtual world—the “people” did not demand this world.

Logged in. This is a somewhat familiar world. An origin world. This “world” is not the world we live in.

The year 2024—.

“Sword Art Online” (commonly called “SAO”), which is set on the floating castle “Aincrad,” turned into a death game where getting a game over means you die in real life. When the player known as Kirito cleared the game, the virtual reality world collapsed—.

This incident, known as the “SAO Incident,” caused a great ripple in society.

Some time passed—.

From the life-threatening virtual reality hardware “NerveGear” came the the guaranteed-safe “AmuSphere” virtual reality hardware, which ushered in the golden age of virtual reality.

Under the pretense of research and development for new possibilities in virtual reality, a new game was built on the old Sword Art Online server.

The name of this new game is “Sword Art Origin” (commonly called “SA: O”), and in this new virtual reality MMORPG reminiscent of past incidents, Kirito receives a message.

“I came back to Aincrad.”

A new adventure for Kirito and friends begins.
