Fate/Samurai Remnant Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Almost perfect if not for the nitty-gritty. If it’s quite there but not enough to push the boundaries, it’s still an awesome game.
I’m not particularly familiar with the lore of the Fate franchise. My first foray into that world was a Musou game entitled Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star, and holy hell; I was confused by that storyline. It assumes you have a previous understanding of the characters and what they’re about. I didn’t, and needless to say, that killed my enjoyment – I had no motivation to want to reach the end credits. Without anything tangible to bite upon, I got bored. Yes, the gameplay was decent, and...
Fate/Samurai Remnant’s engrossing writing and simplistic but engaging combat system make this a title worth exploring no matter your familiarity with the Fate franchise.
Fate/Samurai Remnant shares some of the same mechanics as Omega Force's other Musou games, but it differs in ways that may make it an attractive option for those put off by the typical "1 against 1,000" gameplay.Read More
The latest game from publisher Koei Tecmo and developer Omega Force has arrived with Fate/Samurai Remnant (based in the popular “Fate” universe) that is set
Fate/Samurai Remnant is an awesome game with a great combo of Musou and RPG for a great experience on the Steam Deck.
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.
The Holy Grail War kicks off what I hope to be a continuing run for the Fate franchise. Fate/Samurai Remnant tells a good story with plenty of well-written characters and twists and turns. Its combat is simplistic but manages to keep you going for a fairly long duration. I hope this is the first step of great things to come for this unique franchise.
There is much to learn in Fate/Samurai Remnant but the characters and gameplay loop make it worth the work.
The Fate series gets a new action RPG, this one handled by the Musou studio itself, Omega Force. While Fate/Samurai Remnant provides an interest new setting and tale for the series, its gameplay doesn't quite fully commit.
For fans of the Fate series there will be something extra, for the rest of us we are treated to an entertaining action spectacle. Not without its clear flaws but good enough to follow Iori and Saber's long story all the way to the end.
Fate/Samurai Remnant is an enjoyable entry in the Fate universe. Its heavy emphasis on storytelling may be longwinded at times, but it does lead to a more interesting experience. The story is a compelling one which can keep the player interested in learning what the Waxing Moon Ritual is and who are the true identities of the warrior spirit Servants. The enjoyable gameplay complements the narrative, though pacing issues and repetition can sometimes hold the the experience back from reaching true greatness. But even with these criticisms, Fate/Samurai Remnant is still a good time and likely to ...
