About This Game

An action RPG spun off from the Fate franchise, set in a fictional Edo-period Grand Ritual where the samurai Miyamoto Iori and his Saber servant fight through a hidden war for a wish-granting artifact. Real-time combat mixes sword styles with servant abilities, framed by a dense visual-novel narrative and a stylized recreation of old Edo. Reception is strongly positive, especially among Fate fans. Steam reviews single out the story, character writing and production values, while the caveats are repetitive combat encounters, pacing dips, and an early-game power curve that starts slow. It welcomes newcomers to the series but rewards existing fans most, thanks to its enjoyable action and multiple endings.
