It might not be an actual Holy Grail War, Fate/Samurai Remnant's Waxing Moon Ritual delivers a bombastic, action-packed musou game with a narrative that gripped me for dozens of hours.
If you are new to Fate and you want to have fun battling armies of monsters or thugs, then Fate/Samurai Remnant is worth a look for the satisfaction of the thrill of the fight. Just be ready for a lot of reading. If you are already a Fate fan, then Fate/Samurai Remnant will be the ultimate Fate experience.
Fate/Samurai Remnant is a fun action RPG with top notch cutscenes and voice acting that will leave fans of the Fate works all satisfied, but the padding was too much it felt like it was there to justify the game's price.

Fate/Samurai Remnant doesn’t require you to know the Fate series to play, but it will convert you to a fan by the end of it. It’s written well, gives you an interesting world to explore, and has a clean combat system that never wears out its welcome. Given that this does take place in an entirely new chapter for Fate, Type-Moon now has a bunch more characters to spin into mechanise for this money-spinning behemoth and, as much as I hate admitting this to myself, I’d be all in for all of that. Fate/Samurai Remnant has reinvigorated my love for the property all over again.
Fate/Samurai Remnant is a perfectly fun action-RPG, and it is as a great introduction to the Fate franchise for those who find the convoluted and complex series too difficult to get into. The story and gameplay are engaging and fun but don't reach the highs of something like Persona 5 Strikers, largely because of the focus on Iori's "weakness."
There is much to learn in Fate/Samurai Remnant but the characters and gameplay loop make it worth the work.
Fate/Samurai Remnant is another excellent chapter in a franchise full of them. Marrying great musou combat with an exceptionally developed rich story, a well-established mythology, and beautifully constructed characters, the title is easily one of the most welcome and surprising games of 2023.

Fate/Samurai Remnant is a great palate cleanser after all the massive games of 2023. Fans of either the Fate series or Musou games shouldn’t hesitate to check this one out.
Fate/Samurai Remnant is one of my favourite action games of the year thanks to its epic combat and character growth opportunities that come together to make each battle feel personalised. It may start out slow but holy hot darn, do things escalate!
Even without any pre-knowledge of this series, everyone can enjoy the combat, action and stories between a master and their servant during the feudal society of the Edo era of Japan. Although the combat becomes quite repetitive while the protagonists develop stronger when the enemies somewhat never seem to learn their lessons, if you’ve heard of this series before, the game’s definitely worth a shot.

The Fate series often experiments, and Fate/Samurai Remnant is no exception. Combining familiar elements and gameplay with a fresh setting, it attempts to differ significantly from its predecessors. After all, does it leave a good impression?

Fans of the Fate series and Japanese action RPGs in general should give this game a look as it provides a mostly rewarding experience during the 40-hour+ playtime. As you’ll also get a few history lessons related to the game’s setting, this is a good way to learn something without reading through reams of textbooks.
Fate/Samurai Remnant is a very enjoyable title and one of the most interesting recent games of its kind. It remains a product that is extremely linked to the Fate franchise and aimed especially at the many fans of the Nasuverse.

Fate/Samurai Remnant is a fantastic title that tells players a compelling story with interesting characters.
Fate/Samurai Remnant, although it is a victim of the Switch's technical performance, is another excellent RPG recently added to the console's library. With a dense narrative that lives up to Type-Moon's renowned franchise, combined with different systems that enrich the combat and exploration of a reimagined feudal Japan, we have an adventure that both regular Fate fans and newcomers can enjoy without fear.

Fans of the series will certainly be able to appreciate its take on the formula and how it connects to the wider series, and despite the game’s weaknesses, its story should be more than strong enough to get new fans into the franchise.
Fate/Samurai Remnant works as an excellent introduction to its franchise. A few issues aside, the combat system is fantastic and pulls off the difficult task of remaining fun over a lengthy runtime, which is something that similar titles can struggle with. The story is also superb and acts as the main motivator for you to pull out your sword as you push forward into the next mob of enemies.
