Players experience the story of Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star from the independent perspectives of the three heroine servants and face foes from a variety of Fate productions.Expanding upon the extensive and much-beloved Fate universe with a standalone story from acclaimed series writer Kinoko Nasu (of Fate/stay night fame), Fate/EXTELLA: The Umbral Star transpires on the new world of Extella through a diverse cast of “Servants” – ancient warriors of legend and imagination, always at their Masters’ orders – who survived the Holy Grail War that took place on the Moon.
In a future ruled by the all-powerful lunar super computer Moon Cell Automaton, these champions now duke it out for dominance over this digital realm, known as “SE.RA.PH.” This story takes place after the events described in Fate/EXTRA, and depicts the world after that previous Holy Grail War.
The digital PS4 game is now available for pre-order from PlayStation Store. Pre-orders will instantly unlock an exclusive PS4 theme, as well as the exclusive "Shackled Bride Outfit" DLC for Nero upon launch of the game.
The digital Vita system game will not have a pre-order campaign, but for the first two weeks after launch, PS Store will feature a special bundle, which will include the core Fate/EXTELLA "PS Vita" game, an exclusive "PS Vita" theme, and the exclusive DLC outfit "Cold-Blooded Warden" for Gilgamesh.
A new form change battle mechanic debuts in this entry to match its series-first gameplay style, transforming the player-controlled Servants and granting them considerable powers that allow them to devastate enemies and take formidable challenges head-on. The game will contain the original Japanese voices with English text.
Fate/EXTELLA: The Umbral Star includes characters from Fate/EXTRA, Fate/stay night, Fate/Zero, Fate/Apocrypha and Fate/Grand Order.
