Highlights
- The PSP-exclusive JRPG Fate/Extra is getting a remake in 2025.
- Called Fate/Extra Record, the game will be released for the PS4, PS5, Switch, and PC.
- Publisher Bandai Namco has yet to commit to a Western release for Fate/Extra Record.
The remake of the PlayStation Portable exclusive Fate/Extra has received its first trailer, which also saw Bandai Namco commit to a 2025 release window for the RPG. The promo was shared shortly following the original PSP game's 14th anniversary.
Fate/Extra is a dungeon-crawling RPG that's part of the ever-expanding Fate series. Developed by Type-Moon and Imageepoch, the game takes place in a parallel universe to that of the Fate/Stay Night visual novel. It was originally published by Marvelous Entertainment in July 2010 as a Japan-only release. An English localization of the RPG arrived in North America and Europe in November 2011 and May 2012, respectively. In 2020, Bandai Namco announced that Type-Moon Studio BB is working on a remake of the game titled Fate/Extra Record.
Fate/Extra Record Gets Release Window and First Trailer
Four years later, the Japanese publisher finally showcased the game with a reveal trailer, which was shared at FGO Fest 2024 on August 4. The two-minute video goes over some Fate/Extra Record's story beats and even offers a few glimpses of its gameplay, such as combat and exploration sections. The promotional clip ends by revealing 2025 as the game's release window. As things stand right now, Fate/Extra Record will be a Japan exclusive at launch. But a Western release may also be on the cards, not least because Type-Moon often publishes its Japan-only games itself, but has decided to partner with Bandai Namco for Fate/Extra Record.
