Type-Moon announced that Fate/Extra Record will launch worldwide on 28 January 2027. The game will be available on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. The title is a full remake of 2010's Fate/Extra, the franchise's first RPG. The developers have rebuilt not only the graphics and presentation but also the core gameplay system. The new version will feature a strategic Command Card Battles system based on building your own deck.
The war for the Holy Grail on the digital Moon
The story of Fate/Extra Record takes place after the discovery on the Moon of a powerful supercomputer known as the Moon Cell Automaton. The machine created the Holy Grail, an all-powerful device capable of granting any wish. Thus began the Moon Holy Grail War, a tournament held in the digital world SE.RA.PH. 128 participants, known as Masters, enter the conflict. Each of them is accompanied by a Servant, a hero drawn from human history. Master and Servant must cooperate to defeat the other participants and claim the Holy Grail. The main character is a player who does not remember how they ended up in the middle of the war. Their only chance of survival is to form a contract with a Servant and take part in the fighting. Gathering information about opponents will be an important part of the gameplay. Learning an enemy Servant’s true name is particularly significant, as it can reveal their fighting style and potential weaknesses. Before decisive duels the player will also need to explore further sections of the Arena. Each floor holds traps and enemies whose defeat will strengthen the player’s own Servant. The culmination will be one-on-one duels between Servants commanded by their Masters. The losing Master loses not only the right to continue in the tournament but also their life. The war continues until only one participant remains.
A new card-based combat system
The biggest change in Fate/Extra Record will be a completely redesigned combat system. In the remake, battles will use configurable decks of Command Cards. The player will have to build their own deck by selecting different types of commands. During combat there will be three basic card types in hand. Attack cards are used to deal damage to the opponent. Guard cards increase the hero's shield and help reduce incoming damage. The third category is Skill Commands, which offer their own unique effects. The set of available commands will depend on the chosen Servant. That means an effective strategy can look completely different depending on the accompanying hero. New cards can be obtained, among other ways, from chests found in the Arena. Another way to expand the deck will be by defeating powerful opponents. The system is designed to encourage experimenting with different configurations. Players will have to select actions from their hand depending on the current situation on the battlefield. The developers want to combine Fate's characteristic narrative with a more strategic form of combat. At the same time, the new system is meant to be more accessible to people who haven't previously experienced the original Fate/Extra. In Moon Holy Grail War you can choose one of three Servants, each with their own abilities, strengths and play style.
Editions and release
Fate/Extra Record will be available in standard digital editions for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. Players will also be able to purchase a Digital Deluxe Edition. It will include a digital version of the game and a set of additional cosmetic outfits. The Deluxe edition will also include a special arranged music pack from the original Fate/Extra. Additionally, players will receive digital versions of the art book and the soundtrack prepared for the physical Limited Edition. Type-Moon aims to offer both a basic version for new players and a richer package for fans of the series. Fate/Extra Record will mark the first full return of the original RPG in a heavily reworked form. The remake will feature refreshed character models and a modern presentation. The developers have also expanded the story compared with the original. The most significant change, however, remains the new Command Card Battles system. The game has been designed with both fans of the original and newcomers to the Fate universe in mind. The release is scheduled for 28 January 2027. The game will launch on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 on that day.
