Aniplex has announced that it will be in charge of publishing Fate/EXTRA Record, the remake of Fate/EXTRA. This is a JRPG released in 2010 for PSP based on the transmedia Fate franchise in which a group of mages gather to compete for the Holy Grail and, have a wish granted. To do so, they must fight among themselves until only one remains, summoning personifications of historical figures with enormous physical and magical powers.
In Fate/EXTRA, what makes it special is that, despite not canonically taking place in the same universe as the franchise’s main story, Fate/Stay Night, it offers an alternate take on that story. Showing how events might have unfolded differently by changing their circumstances.
A game that’s had quite a journey
This announcement comes after Bandai Namco, the game’s original publisher, abandoned the project five months ago. At the same time, Aniplex has announced that Meteorise has become the game’s developer while Type-Moon Studio BB, the studio mainly responsible for the game until now, is going to undergo a restructuring, and that Kazuya Shinonō, the game’s director up to this point, has left the studio for unspecified personal reasons.
While Aniplex has worked with the Fate franchise before, this is a surprising move that has taken fans by surprise, and they don’t know what it will mean for the future of this remake. In any case, Fate/EXTRA Record still has no release date and is set to release on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Switch, Switch 2, and PC.
