Fate/Grand Order (フェイト/グランドオーダー, Feito/Gurando Ōdā?) is a mobile “gacha” RPG game for iOS and Android, developed by Delightworks, published by Aniplex and licensed by TYPE-MOON.
Conceived as "Fate Online Project Reboot", the reboot of the original Fate/Apocrypha project that eventually became a novel series, Grand Order is a turn-based RPG with strong storytelling and “gacha” elements—the 230+ characters usable in combat being drawn from a weighted lottery with in-game currency and microtransactions.
Originally released in Japan in 2015, the game reached China in 2016 and the United States in 2017.[1] The same year, it became the sixth highest-grossing mobile game,[2] and has gathered a large community. The game's story is being adapted in several manga, animated movies and animated series.
Plot
Edit
Observer on Timeless Temple (Part 1)Edit
The main story of Part 1, later given the title of Fate/Grand Order: Observer on Timeless Temple, consists of seven chapters and seven stages of humanity's history. It is part of a branching world resulting from a timeline split from before Clock Tower 2015 due to the actions of Lev Lainur Flauros. If he should end his life like in Clock Tower 2015, the world continues on normally, but Fate/Grand Order results from him not committing suicide.[3]
The story chronicles the efforts of the Chaldea Security Organization to restore the Common Sense of Man by way of excising the Holy Grails sustaining the chronological Singularities that disrupt the continuity of human history and contribute to the Human Order Incineration Protocol. This is referred to as the Grand Order -- "the greatest of the Holy Grail Wars."[4][5]

Epic of Remnant (Part 1.5)Edit
Fate Grand Order: Epic of Remnant (FGO Project 1.5) four episode story set before the start of Part 2.

Plan (also the name of the Arc Drive used by Aozaki Aoko in Melty Blood) -- "a bit of detective-work" that serves as a prelude to the 2nd Project. The coming conflict will be premised upon a critical oversight of Chaldea in their efforts to preserve the Common Sense of Man -- "the beloved legacy of the King of Magecraft" (魔術王が残した愛すべき"残り物", Majutsu-Ou ga Nokoshita Aisubeki "Nokori-Mono"?).
The planned episodes are as follows:

Servant ListEdit
- Breakdown by series
GameplayEdit
Fate/Grand Order is told in a visual novel style. Servants are obtained through "Saint Quartz". The player also receives Servants as a reward for completeing some Singularities. Kinoko Nasu said that "In Fate/Grand Order, once you get a character, you’ll immediately learn about the identity of the Servant." Each Servants has their own personal scenarios. Deepening your bond with them will also play a big role in the advancement of their scenario.
Fate/Grand Order is a turn-based combat role-playing game. Each Servant has a set amount of Health Points and a bar that indicates the gauge for their Noble Phantasm. Noble Phantasm can be leveled up by using duplicate cards. Players have two Servants in their party, with one Support and a maximum of three in reserve. The battles consist of a Tactical Phase and a Command Phase. After the player chooses a command, the Servants will attack. Afterwards, the enemies will attack, and that completes a turn.
During the Tactical Phase, Servants can use their Skills, which are learned through experience or from deepening their bond with the players. Additionally, players can also use their own Skills to support the Servants.
- Arts Chain (アーツチェイン, Ātsu Chein?) - Increases the rate the NP (Noble Phantasm) gauge fills up, which allows Servants to use their Noble Phantasm.
- Buster Chain (バスターチェイン, Basutā Chein?) - Vastly increases the attacking power of the Servants, which allows them to do much more damage than regular attacks.
- Quick Chain (クイックチェイン, Kuikku Chein?) - Increases the number of Critical Stars obtained this turn, which causes some of the next turn’s attacks to have a chance to be critical hits.
- Brave Chain (ブレイブチェイン, Bureibu Chein?) - Performs an extra attack that acts as all three attack types.
The process of leveling up Servants is called Servant Growth (サーヴァントの成長, Sāvanto no Seichō?). Servant could be powered up by combining cards called Saint Graph (セイントグラフ, Seinto Gurafu?). Servants has four evolution stages which affect the Servant's appearance.

Fate/Grand Order x Real Escape GameEdit
DevelopmentEdit
With the online Fate/Apocrypha game project, Type-Moon originally planned for a PvP-style online game that would be played on PC until its cancellation. Type-Moon decided the project should be rebooted, and it was codenamed as "Fate Online Project REBOOT". Although Kinoko Nasu had said that Fate/Extra CCC was his last time writing anything for the Fate series, it was a lie.[19] It began when the Aniplex producer Atsuhiro Iwakami wanted to make a social game to promote the Fate anime. He suggested he would take on the challenge by using the franchise; however, Takeuchi Takashi and Nasu wanted the game to be done properly by them. Prior to the development of Fate/Grand Order, Nasu claims he never had a smartphone. In fact, it was his personal goal not to get one in order to keep him from being a complete “slacker”. One day, he was gifted with a smartphone with several games such as Chain Chronicle, Brave Frontier, and others installed for references. Nasu sees the development of smartphone games as a revolution in its own way. For example, core players can enjoy the luxury of high graphics on home consoles, while smartphone games can be used to reach out to the mass audience.
The opening animation was animated by A-1 Pictures, directed by Ryosuke Nakamura, and the characters were designed by Mieko Hosoi.
Release HistoryEdit
- The game was originally only available in Japan. It was released on July 29, 2015.
- A Chinese server was announced on November 20, 2015. It will be published by BiliBili, with its expected release date in 2016.[20]
- The game was released for North America on June 25th, 2017.
- In an interview with 4Gamer on December 29, 2018, Kinoko Nasu confirmed that no plans existed for Grand Order's story past Part 2, which ending would try to emulate the “sense of loss” he felt after completing Final Fantasy IV. Ideas were however discussed internally on plans to overhaul the game's system, and Nasu said that, though difficult, he could write an outline for further stories.[21]

First trailer transcription "My Lord. Once more, I shall raise this flag, for this country's---no, this world's salvation.
Order has gone up in flames, and so much purpose has been lost. Our future vanished in but a second.
Listen to my words, brave warriors gathered here, legion of heroic spirits who retain their reason!
No matter if you were sworn enemies or no matter how far your time periods apart, now you must entrust your backs to one another!
My true name is Jeanne d'Arc. In the name of my lord, I shall stand as your shield!
This struggle is one that has long endured through the sands of human history.
But there is no need for concern, as untold fateful encounters await you.
Though this entire planet has become the battlefield of the Holy Grail War, though the world has been brought to ruin, though countless formidable foes block your path, the end has still yet to be determined by anyone.
Now, let us begin our fight, Master.
The curtains rise on the largest scale Holy Grail War in history.
Fate/Grand Order, a story of reclaiming the future."
--Jeanne d'Arc
"With the passing of the Age of Gods and the start of the Common Era, Mankind has become the most prosperous species in the world.
The fate of the planet is in our hands. We are the ones who will write its epitaph.
Thankfully, there is a principle that will ensure mankind's everlasting prosperity. A sea chart guiding the human race.
In the world of magi, this is known as... Humanity."

Website plot synopsis 2015 AD.
The final era, when sorcery still existed.
Society had been build by human hands, but it was magi who grasped the truth of the world.
Sorcery, which governs the skills of past humans that science cannot explain, and science, which gathers the technology of future humanity that sorcery cannot reach.
Though the two disciplines are absolutely incompatible, they are similar in just one respect.
Whether sorcery or science, the pursuers of both seek continued prosperity. Or in other words, to protect the future of humanity.
The Chaldea Security Organization.
A secret agency founded to prevent the certain extinction of the human race, by observing both the world unseen by sorcery as well as the world immeasurable by science.
Researchers from every field, both magical and mundane, were gathered under a single goal: to extend the reign of human history, above all else.
1950 AD. Phenomenon Recording Cyber-Daemon "LAPLACE" completed.
1990 AD. Pseudo Global Environment Model "CHALDEAS" completed.
1999 AD. Near-Future Observation Lens "SHEBA" completed.
2004 AD. Heroic Spirit Summoning System "FATE" completed.
2015 AD. Spiritual Computer "TRISMEGISTUS" completed.
With one promising success after another, Chaldea was able to guarantee the security of human history for the next hundred years.
However, in 2015...
Without warning, the future that had been observed by SHIVA vanished.
Through calculations, it became clear... or rather, it was proven that humanity would go extinct in 2016.
Why had this happened? How had it happened? Who was responsible?
The researchers of Chaldea were plagued by questions.
But in the midst of their doubt, SHIVA observed a new anomaly.
2004 AD, Japan, a certain provincial city.
An "unobservable region" that had not been there before suddenly appeared.
Assuming that this must be the cause of humanity's extinction, Chaldea decided to utilize the still-untested "sixth experiment".
That is, time travel.
A forbidden ritual that converts the practitioner into spirit particles and sends them into the past, allowing them to interfere with events to locate and destroy space-time singularities.
Its name is the quest for the Holy Grail: "Grand Order".
The name for those who would rise up against human history for the sake of humans, and fight fate itself. - ↑ SaiZenTen
