XSEED Games lined up western launch timing for Fate/Extella Link, the followup to last year's Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star. The hack-and-slash sequel is scheduled for a Q1 2019 launch in North America and Europe, with the PS4 and PS Vita versions priced at $49.99 and $39.99, respectively.
North American fans can also opt to plunk down $79.99 on the Fleeting Glory limited edition version for PS4. This release packs the game in a custom box with 10 collectible cards, a cloth poster, an acrylic diorama, and a soundtrack CD.
XSEED describes the sequel:
|
Picking up right where the 2017 smash hit Fate/EXTELLA: The Umbral Star left off, Fate/EXTELLA LINK adds 10 Servants to the original roster of 16. The high-speed action gameplay has been refined, and players will battle their way through massive invading armies to protect the virtual world of SE.RA.PH from an invading force. Players on PS4™ system can now engage in massive 4-on-4 online battles with up to 7 other players. Foes will quiver at the True Name of players’ Noble Phantasms as they assume the role of their favorite Servant. |
Key Features
- Combatants from Across the Fate Universes Join the Fray–- In addition to the 16 original Servants from Fate/EXTELLA: The Umbral Star, 10 characters from other Fate series will enter battle as playable Servants, including Astolfo, Scáthach, and Francis Drake
- Hunker Down in Base Camp–- Players can move freely around their army’s base camp—a medieval cathedral raised into the sky—and interact with their Servants to build meaningful bonds.
- Polished Graphics and Battle Mechanics–- Players can experience refined combat mechanics and graphics through the game.
