Bandai Namco has announced that Sword Art Online Fractured Daydream DLC World Beyond III: Moonlit Night Fragment is now available. The third DLC for the title adds two beloved characters from the Online Hollow Fragment and Aincrad Arc, featured in two new trailers. This newly released update introduces an exciting new story arc. Also revealed, SWORD ART ONLINE Fractured Daydream will be getting its fourth DLC pack on September 30, 2025, adding additional story content and new characters. The title’s Character Pass Vol. 2 includes access to these new DLC updates and is also available now for purchase.

In World Beyond III: Moonlit Night Fragment, players can take on the roles of Philia from Online Hollow Fragment and Sachi from the Sword Art Online Aincrad Arc series. Philia is a relentless treasure hunter driven by secrets buried deep within the virtual world, with mischievous blade strikes that land swiftly and without warning. Sachi is a gentle soul and a founding member of the ill-fated Moonlit Black Cats guild, who was tragically lost to the unforgiving traps of the Labyrinth.

Check out the trailers below.

Also releasing on September 30, 2025, Sword Art Online Fractured Daydream will release its fourth DLC, Worlds Beyond IV: Symphony of a Dazzling Dawn. This upcoming DLC 4 update will introduce Mito and Cat Knight Alice as new playable characters, with more details to be revealed soon.

• DLC 3: World Beyond III: Moonlit Night Fragment (available now)

  • 2 Additional characters – Philia and Sachi
