Sword Art Online Alicization Lycoris Blooming of Matricaria release date

The second major expansion for Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris, which is titled Blooming of Matricaria, will soon be made available on Switch. Bandai Namco has confirmed that it will launch on March 29, 2023.

Blooming of Matricaria introduces a new story, maps and dungeons, divine beasts, and weapons. We have a general overview below.

Following the events of the ”Ancient Apostles” storylines and the Blooming Of Forget-Me-Not DLC, Blooming of Matricaria delivers a new multi-chapter experience where Kirito and his friends must prepare to stand up to the Four Lords and prevent them from using the Divine Object of Mass Destruction. In addition to Rogu, the charming new playable character, players will have access to the new “Shield and Axe” weapon type which excels in preventing attacks and overpowering the enemy with increased firepower.  Blooming of Matricaria also includes new maps, dungeons, and divine beasts to challenge in intense battles, as well as a moving story involving fan-favorite characters.
