Sword Art Online, the popular anime about players being trapped in a Virtual Reality MMORPG, is being developed for use on the Oculus Rift VR Console as an independent project.  While many within the anime community joked that it would only be a matter of time before someone attempted it, that time has come and a very early demonstration has been uploaded to YouTube focusing on looking around a game world along with some menu interfacing.  There is no release date set for this and it is also unknown if the project will even be completed, but the fact that someone out there is working on this is enough to make both anime and gaming fans excited!

Here is the video of the demonstration.
