One of the games available is Sword Art Online (SAO), one of the latest games on the console that offers a gateway to the world of Aincrad, a medieval landscape where users can do anything within the limits of their imagination. However, this beautiful fantasy quickly turns into a nightmare.
This is because the creator of SAO traps thousands of players in the game. The only way to escape is to defeat the difficult one hundred levels of Aincrad. Not only that, death in this game is real, meaning players can die in the real world.
Although Kazuto Kirigaya is fortunate enough to be a beta tester for the game, he soon realizes that he cannot overcome the challenges of SAO alone. Working together with Asuna Yuuki and other talented players, Kirito strives to face seemingly insurmountable trials.
