#MobileSpread -Fate/Grand Order Upcoming English version

I'm sure many of you have tried / is  playing the Japanese version or at least heard of this game. For those who do not know yet let me introduce the game. Fate G/O is role playing video games based on the series with the same title. The original Japanese version was released on 30th of July 2015, published by Type-Moon. F/GO is considered one of the most successful role-playing mobile game, it has been downloaded over eight million times.  Some of the key staff members are Kinoko Nasu as supervisor, Yuichiro Higashide and Hikaru Sakurai as writer and Takashi Takeuchi in charge of character design and art direction.

Here comes the screenshots of the battle from the Japanese version. Can't read Japanese language? wait for a few more months ...

Rejoice! the good news is the English version will be release summer this year. The news was revealed during Aniplex industry panel on Sakura - Con in Seattle last month. This game will be available for both iOS and Android platform. Another good news is the voice will still be in Japanese with English subtitle. Personally I prefer Japanese dub over English dub since it sounds better or more fitting compared to using other voice actors or actresses speaking in English while the background and the character screams Japanese product.

Story cut-scene from the Japanese version. It reminds me of Chain Chronicle even though the global server closed down around two years ago.

Announcement Trailer

Short trailer with the characters / servant 

Animplex released some plans and information about the game such as the story that will be up to date withe the Japanese version. Other than that there will be various quality fix in the English version. Sounds exciting? According to Yosuke Shiokawa the creative director of the game, Aniplex plans to import the Japanese version to English version so there will be no exclusive characters (servants). One of the difference that was release is there might be campaign anniversary for the English version.

The success of the game also inspired a 75 minutes television animation special and also stage play. The stage play titled Fate/Grand Order The Stage: Shinsei Entaku Ryōiki Camelot Replica; Agateram (Fate/Grand Order The Stage: Domain of the Holy Round Table Camelot Replica; Agateram). It will run at Zepp Blue Theater in Roppongi, Tokyo from July 14 to July 17.
