Fate/Extra Record Game Delayed to Spring 2026

The official website for Type-Moon studio BB's Fate/Extra Record game, the remake of Marvelous Entertainment's Fate/Extra PlayStation Portable game, announced on Tuesday that the game will be delayed to spring 2026 to improve the product quality. Game director Kazuya Niinō also posted on his X (formerly Twitter) account on Tuesday and stated that it is his first time to develop a fully-voiced game (including the minor characters), and he misjudged the schedule.

Additionally, the game's staff also announced that pre-orders for the game's Ultra Special Edition and Special Edition have started on Tuesday. The game's Ultra Special Edition includes a three-disc soundtrack, setting material collection, special vinyl LP record of selected tracks from the game's soundtrack, a multi-layer acrylic block display, and an exclusive character illustration print (using Canon's Fine Graph technology) with serial number. The game's Special Edition has the same inclusions except for the character illustration print.

The game was scheduled for release this year for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC via Steam.

The game was first announced in 2020, marking the Fate/Extra game's 10th anniversary. The announcement then did not reveal the new game's platform or release date.

Type-Moon studio BB director Kazuya Nino is the director and planner of the remake project. Nino was the producer for Fate/Extra, and also worked on the first Etrian Odyssey game. Arco Wada returns as character designer.

Marvelous Entertainment and Type-Moon released the Fate/Extra PlayStation Portable game in Japan in 2010. Aksys Games released the game in North America in November 2011. The Fate/Extra CCC companion game shipped in Japan on the PSP in March 2013. The games are set in an alternate science-fiction continuity of Type-Moon's Fate universe, often referred to by fans as the "Extraverse."

The games inspired SHAFT's 10-episode television anime Fate/Extra Last Encore in January 2018. Netflix began streaming the anime outside of Japan in June 2018. The three-episode Fate/Extra Last Encore: Illustrias Tendōsetsu (Illustrias Geocentrism) special then debuted in July 2018.

Marvelous released Fate/EXTELLA: The Umbral Star, a new "Extraverse" game, for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita in November 2016. XSEED Games released the game in the West in January 2017, and on the PC and Switch in July 2017. Fate/EXTELLA LINK, an enhanced version of the game, shipped in Japan in June 2018, and XSEED Games released the game in March 2019.

Koei Tecmo launched the action RPG Fate/Samurai Remnant in Japan on September 28, 2023 and on September 29 outside of Japan. The game is available worldwide for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, PC via Steam, and Nintendo Switch.
