Teon is a strong PVP-based MMORPG. It requires a lot of manual grinding and skill practicing to develop a powerful character. If you are a hardcore MMORPG gamer, Teon is your best choice. * Watch out for PKers; players can activate PK-mode anytime outside of Safe Zones! * You can customize your stat points the way you like after level 50; you can create a unique character build that is different from anyone else; * Build up your team and clan to challenge bosses and participate in castle siege; * Explore dungeons and defeat monsters to acquire rare treasures to forge powerful weapons and armors; * You can trade items with other players through the in-game market and between characters. [Legend] Teon, God of Creation, created the land of Edin and all beings many years ago. After the creation, the powerful Giants enslaved all other races by force, but King Arthur led his followers to fight and became the dominator of Edin. But the arrogant King Arthur angered God Teon, and the Chaos ensued, humans dropping like flies. When the Chaos settled, the brutal King Attila took over the throne and brought terror worldwide. Still, the light of justice never faded. Heros fight with King Arthur's descendants to save the people. And here begins the fight of Kings and Heroes! * Find more details and description in-game. * Player Guidelines: https://teonworld.com/rules * Privacy Policy: https://teonworld.com/privacy * Homepage: https://teonworld.com * Discord: https://discord.gg/wD2ps7v If you have problems logging in, check Help or contact our customer service at cs@teonworld.com.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SwordArtOnline at 4.4 against Teon's 3.4. SwordArtOnline also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (12K vs 19). Teon's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Teon sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and SwordArtOnline sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
SwordArtOnline holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SwordArtOnline has 12K ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 57% of Teon's written reviews are positive against 69% of SwordArtOnline's.
Teon ships an update every 2 months, SwordArtOnline fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on June 10, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
