Fate/Samurai Remnant picks up a release date for September

Koei Tecmo have announced that Fate/Samurai Remnant will slash its way to release on September 29th for Switch, PlayStation and PC. In celebration of that, the team have released the first trailer for the game, check it out.

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.

More details on the game are expected as we get closer to the release, but for now, we have a slew of new screens to enjoy. The full game will land on September 29th for Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 and PC.
