Fan-favorite mobile title Fate/Grand Order has reached 4 Million downloads in it’s English version. The game which originally released last June has quickly become popular. The English release was sparked by developer Type-Moon & Aniplex being surprised by the number of overseas players outside of Japan playing the title. Aniplex has announced plans to celebrate the news which can be seen below:
“To celebrate this momentous occasion, Fate/Grand Order has embarked on a “4 Million Downloads Five Part Campaign” featuring a bevy of rewards for players beginning October 17th. Rewards include daily log-in bonuses, increased success rates for character and equipment enhancements, as well as seven new rank up quests. The celebratory campaign also marks the return of the limited time ★5 (SSR) Avenger-class Servant, Jeanne d’Arc (Alter) as a character players can have a chance to summon onto their teams. Prior to this event, the extremely rare and popular character was briefly only available for a little over a week back in April of 2018.
One of the most successful mobile games in the world, Fate/Grand Order has players embark on an epic quest known as the Grand Order to prevent the extinction of humanity with help from powerful Heroic Spirits, or Servants, who are based on popular historical, literary, and mythological figures. The game features strategic, turn-based gameplay, which requires players to assemble powerful teams in order to advance through the story. A joint project between TYPE-MOON, Aniplex Inc., and DELiGHTWORKS Inc., Fate/Grand Order is considered to be one of the most story driven mobile games ever produced, featuring an expansive main story and side stories in addition to frequent in-game events. Together with its compelling narratives and characters, the game has captivated players worldwide and inspired countless cosplays, an original anime special, an arcade game, and tabletop game, Fate/Grand Order Duel – collection figures-. In addition to being featured on Android Authority’s “10 best gacha games and mobile RPGs for Android” article, the game received praise from the official Apple App Store Games Twitter account, which posted: “We were curious why Fate/Grand Order was so popular. Now we can’t stop playing it.”
