https://twitter.com/sao_wikia/status/806858962364665856 It isn't totally confirmed but probably. About your question : Ronye will be the main heroine, Asuna will appear little,there isn't Alice. It takes place during volume 18, now we can say that it is canon. I'm not very happy. From a point of view i can understand it : Kawahara is working on the movie and he needs time to write a new arc and so it's normal if he uses previous materials. But i prefer if it is a story of Alice in RW. Also i hope that the movie and the end of Alicization show a new way in SAO, a way with more Kirito and Asuna and with more screen time for all the characters. I'm not happy if SAO remains a story where Kirito goes in another game and he meets girls who fall in love with him. I prefer to see a story with Kirito and Asuna as main characters (like progressive) and with more screen time for all the old characters.
