The weapon upgrade system employs the use of blacksmiths spread throughout Ainground. Each blacksmith will have different skills allowing them to upgrade different items. All blacksmiths, however, will need materials and require a fee. As the weapon level gets higher, so do the materials necessary for the upgrade, providing a scaling level of difficulty. 

The new locations from Town of the Beginning include various shops, Room of Kirito; where you can customize your avatar and converse with your group, and Transition Gate Square where all adventures begin. The season pass was also unveiled — it comes with 3 DLCs, each with their own bonus outfits.

Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization is already packed with things to do and places to go. Will you be getting the game when it releases?
