LLENN, her P90, and her friends/acquaintances are set to return on October 4 JST. In the meantime, you can watch new footage of them via the newly released second PV for Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online II.
A second key visual was also released.
Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online is based on the light novel series written by Kino’s Journey‘s Keiichi Sigsawa and illustrated by Kouhaku Kuroboshi. The series, which is published under KADOKAWA’s Dengeki Bunko label, began in 2014 and has 13 tankoubon volumes as of March 2023. The light novels have also inspired a manga adaptation illustrated by Tadachi Tamori.
Crunchyroll describes the first season of the Sword Art Online spin-off as:
In the world of guns and steel that is Gun Gale Online, LLENN has been a devoted, female solo player. She is obsessed with two things: donning herself entirely in pink and honing her skills with consistent game play. She soon discovers her love for hunting other players (a.k.a. PK), soon to be known as the “Pink Devil.” Meanwhile, LLENN meets a beautiful yet mysterious player, Pitohui, and the two click right away. Doing as she is told by Pitohui, she enters the Squad Jam group battle.
Season 1 of Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online was produced by Studio 3Hz. The studio was initially credited for Season 2 as well, but in June, it was announced that its anime planning and production operations had been transferred to A-1 Pictures, which is now the credited animation production studio. The main staff lineup was unaffected.
