ready for Daily Brief

The light novel author Yūichirō Higashide announced on Saturday that he is writing Fate/Apocrypha as a novel. The Fate/Apocrypha project was once anounced as an online game set during the story's Holy Grail War.

Vol. 7 of Kadokawa Shoten's Type-Moon Ace publication will launch Fate/Apocrypha on December 15. The volume will also include a demo version of Type-Moon's upcoming Mahō Tsukai no Yoru visual novel and a mascot figure.
