Fate/stay night Remastered

Fate/stay night Remastered is a refreshed version of the visual novel titled Fate/stay night. It was released in 2004 for personal computers, three years later on PlayStation 2, and also converted to PlayStation Vita in 2012 as Fate/stay night [Realta Nua].

This version is based on the last of the mentioned above and is the result of a collaboration between the authors of the original, namely Type-Moon studio, and the fuzz team. This is also the first version of Fate/stay night, which has been translated into English.

Plot

Fate/stay night Remastered takes us to the urban fantasy universe, specifically to the fictional Japanese city of Fuyuki. The main character of the game is a young apprentice of magic - Shirou Emiya. Unforeseen circumstances force the protagonist to participate in a regularly performed ritual, in which magicians compete with each other for possession of the Holy Grail granting wishes. To defeat the competition, they summon so-called Servants, in fact being Heroic Spirits - heroes and heroines of myths and legends from around the world.

How the further fate of Shirou will unfold, who he will ally with, who he will have a bone to pick with, and finally - whether he will manage to obtain the Holy Grail, largely depends on our actions and the choices we make.

Gameplay

The gameplay in Fate/stay night Remastered does not deviate from the pattern typical for the visual novel genre. The pillar of the game is therefore reading text descriptions of places and situations in which the hero is, as well as conducting conversations with the characters.

We also regularly have to make choices that affect the further course of the story and its ending. Apart from the first storyline, Fate, there are two additional ones waiting to be unlocked, namely Unlimited Blade Works and Heaven’s Feel. To see them all, we need to complete the adventure multiple times, making different decisions along the way.

Graphics

The graphics of Fate/stay night Remastered primarily consist of two-dimensional illustrations presenting locations, characters and situations. They are maintained in a manga style. Compared to the original, this version stands out primarily due to being able to run at a higher resolution.
