KOEI TECMO Europe og udvikleren Omega Force har sammen med TYPE-MOON og Aniplex Inc., annonceret det seneste kapitel i seriefænomenet Fate der spænder over anime og spil nemlig Fate/Samurai Remnant. Det ultra stylede action RPG udkommer til Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 og Windows PC på Steam 29. september.
Throughout the Fate franchise, pairs of Masters and heroic spirits – also known as Servants – have been fighting across history in a series of Holy Grail Wars, with the winning duo receiving an ancient artifact that grants wishes. Fate/Samurai Remnant continues the series’ epic Holy Grail War in the fourth year of the Keian Era, Edo Period Japan. It has been several decades since the end of a turbulent, blood-soaked era, and while the people are finally enjoying peace and tranquility, a battle between seven pairs of Masters and their Servants is about to begin as the “Waxing Moon Ritual” unfolds in the shadows. This is where the game’s hero, Miyamoto Iori, a young man in Asakusa, finds himself caught in the violence alongside his Servant Saber as they fight to be the last pair remaining in order to receive the granter of wishes, the “Waxing Moon Vessel”.
In Fate/Samurai Remnant, players control Miyamoto Iori, a Master who studied the Niten Ichiryu style of swordsmanship. He fights alongside Saber, a Servant who possesses strength beyond that of humans. When facing enemies beyond human control, players will be able to instruct their Servant to attack with powerful magical techniques, or even take direct control of the Servant to attack the enemy swarm. Dynamic battle scenes between Servants help elevate the action to new heights and are must-see contests for fans of the series
Throughout the game, players get the chance to explore the town of Edo, where row houses, samurai residences, and brothels stand side by side. Here, many people frequent the streets, and characters drawn with a distinct Japanese touch are brought to life. While following the story of the “Waxing Moon Ritual”, players will be able to interact with various characters and animals in town, explore a variety of areas, and take on a wide array of challenges as they fight for survival in the latest Holy Grail War!
