After an initial announcement back in 2020, Bandai Namco has fully revealed Fate/Extra Record, a full remake of the 2010 PSP title Fate/Extra.
Slated for 2025 on Nintendo Switch, Fate/Extra Record is currently only confirmed for Japan, but Bandai Namco's involvement in the Type-Moon-developed dungeon crawler makes a Western release fairly likely. The remake will boast overhauled visuals and a new combat system, both of which can be glimpsed in the new trailer alongside the usual visual novel mechanics and explorative segments.
The original PSP title was localised for North America in 2011 and Europe in 2012. It would go on to spawn two sequels titled Fate/Extella: The Umbra Star and Fate/Extella Link, both of which are available on the Switch.
The “Moon Holy Grail War” begins anew…
The setting is a Spiritron virtual world called “SE.RA.PH.” built on the moon. Masters and Servants team up and fight for survival in pursuit of the “Holy Grail,” an omnipotent wish-granting device, in the Moon Holy Grail War which begins once again…
This is a remake of Fate/EXTRA, the first Fate series RPG originally released on July 22, 2010, now revamped for modern hardware with an expanded scenario, refreshed character graphics, and dramatic command battles utilizing a highly strategic deck-building system.
We'll provide more information on Fate/Extra Record's potential Western release as soon as we hear more.

Nice, fingers crossed it will come outside of Japan as well and good reminder that I should give the Fate series in general a try at some point!
YEAAAAAAHHH!!! At this point in time, this is probably my most anticipated game. Loved original Extra, and both Extellas, but still need to play CCC. Still, been waiting for a release date for this for years, and I'm so excited to play it when it comes out.
So is this a 'musuo' style game like it's sequels or?
I am always down for hacking and slashing.
@XenoShaun It’s card based battle
@XenoShaun "Now revamped for modern hardware with an expanded scenario, refreshed character graphics, and dramatic command battles utilizing a highly strategic deck-building system."
It helps reading the article or at the very least the quotes describing the game. It's a dungeon crawler with visual novel mechanics, exploration and a deck building battle system.
@Arawn93 Ah I see. That's a shame.
@BTB20 Yes I missed the last few words in the quote, sue me.
Oh... Why not Unlimited Codes? 😭
Bah. I'm pre-deck building old. I was able to play some of Slay the Spire, and I've tried Hearthstone countless times. I can win some matches, but my old brain just struggles so much with this core game mechanic. Shame too because I think I would enjoy this kind of game mechanic and these worlds are interesting.
Played the original years ago (I completed it 5 times), it's so good.
So happy with this remake and I will play it when it comes out.
Neat. I tried to play the original on my PSP years ago but couldn't dig the battle system...
Type moon been on fire lately, first we get the Tsukihime and Mahoyo remakes, then Fate/Stay Night AND Hollow Ataraxia get official English releases and the first time ever, Now this?
Fate bros eating good.
