“Fate/Samurai Remnant is an action RPG set in the age of the samurai. A peaceful town is suddenly engulfed in the flames of the Waxing Moon Ritual, a battle in which seven participants summon historical heroes called ‘Servants’ to fight each other. A mysterious Servant called Saber appears in front of main character Iori Miyamoto, and [they] always act as a team of two, [utilizing] various cooperative moves and breathtaking pursuits when fighting enemies. In addition to the hack-and-slash element of Remnant, you can also combine special mountings to create a powered-up sword that looks just the way you like it. This is (probably) the first time ‘sword maintenance’ is represented in a game. Iori, a samurai, takes care of his beloved sword every day, and a well-cared-for sword with a good grip will buff the amount of experience gained by the player.”
