Bandai Namco has released a trailer -- via Siliconera -- for the upcoming Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization update titled “Fighters of the Blue Sky.”

The upcoming Hollow Realization update brings Rain and Seven, two characters from Lost Song, to the game as well as PVP and a lot more minor changes to the overall game.

Check out the Hollow Realization update trailer below.

Rain and Seven’s inclusion in Hollow Realization isn’t the only change to the game coming with the latest update. A PvP mode will be available along with changes to the main scenario, level cap being raised to 80, pillow talk with Premiere and the ability to copy skill palettes from weapon to weapon.

The SAO update will also add some other minor features such as a gallery mode, adjustments for skills and experience, and more.

The video also introduces the "Shin'en no Miko" (Maiden of Abyss) paid DLC content. "Shin'en no Miko" includes three new episodes. The Season Pass also includes the DLC and those who purchase the Season Pass will receive an in-game wedding dress costume.

The three-episode DLC is slated to launch in Japan in 2017, with the free update available in Japan today. The timing of these updates in the U.S. and Europe are not yet known but we will update as soon as we learn more.
