Fate/Stay Night Remastered has been treated to a release date, August 8. But that date will only see it reach the Switch and PC, with the game skipping PlayStation consoles despite being published by Sony Group-owned Aniplex Inc.
Fate/Stay Night is a visual novel developed by the genre veterans at Type-Moon. It was originally released on PC in 2004 before being ported to the PS2 and PS Vita in 2007 and 2012, respectively. It even received mobile ports in 2015, although none of its versions have ever been launched outside of Japan. Come January 2024, Aniplex announced it will be remastering the PS Vita port of Fate/Stay Night for the Nintendo Switch and PC.
For stories with multiple layers, these visual novels provide players with the most complex gameplay experience.
Seven months later, the publisher has now committed to a firm release date for the remaster, August 8. But its latest announcement has also reiterated that Fate/Stay Night Remastered will only be landing on Steam and eShop. The Sony subsidiary hasn't elaborated on the circumstances that led to the decision to skip PlayStation consoles with this release.
