Behind-the-Scenes of Sword Art Online Cosplayers

To celebrate the launch of SWORD ART ONLINE - Hollow Realization, Bandai Namco Entertainment commissioned cosplay of Kirito, Asuna and Sinon in their new in-game costumes for a photo shoot by Martin Wong and PR event in San Francisco. The art style and setting of Hollow Realization is a return to Anicrad and can been seen in the style of the costumes for all characters and environments in the game.

The team visited Gamespot, IGN, and Crunchyroll during their SF tour and handed out Collector’s Editions of the game to Bandai Namco’s media partners. We were also fortunate to have them stop by our corporate office to say hello!

Be sure to check out the rest of our “behind-the-scenes” photos and video. We extend our thanks to the cosplayers and costumers involved:
