Arjuna, Lancer, Tamamo Aria, and more join the fray.
Publisher Koei Tecmo and developer Omega Force have released the second official trailer for Fate/Samurai Remnant, as well as new information and screenshots introducing the game’s “Rogue Servants.”
“…If anyone, perhaps I can entrust my dying wish to you.”
A Servant of the Archer class who is loyal, courageous, and fierce. He shows respect to his Master Zheng Chenggong and freely maneuvers his bow and arrow to help him in his battles.
“A warrior kills—it’s our nature. Some goals cannot be reached without accepting that.”
A Servant of the Assassin class. He is a phantom in gray with long arms and legs that flex like whips. He is said to be able to summon and manipulate many serpents as his subordinates.

Rogue Saber (voiced by Tooru Sakurai)
“The Evil Ogre draws in the darkness. And it falls to me to drive that darkness away!”
A Rogue Servant of the Saber class. He is an armored warrior who rides a gray horse and wields a large sword. He is in pursuit of an enemy called the Evil Ogre, whom he seeks to destroy.
Rogue Archer (voiced by Nobunaga Shimazaki)
“Show me how deeply that blade thirsts for blood!”
A Rogue Servant of the Archer class. His True Name is Arjuna. He is a fighter clad in a white robe who wields a bow covered with blue flames. He is pure, always respectful, and behaves in a fair and honest manner.
Rogue Lancer (voiced by Nobutoshi Canna)
“Who am I? Good question. I guess I’m the watchdog of this place.”
A Rogue Servant of the Lancer class. His True Name is Cu Chulainn. He handles a crimson spear, which is longer than he is, as if it were a part of himself. He has a belligerent personality and seeks out challenging battles.
Rogue Rider (voiced by Chiwa Saito)
“Let’s do lots of fun things together and learn all about each other!”
A Rogue Servant of the Rider class. Her True Name is Tamamo Aria. She captivates men with her dainty appearance and somewhat frivolous speech and behavior. Instead of riding on something, riding on someone seems to be her preferred form of transportation.

Rogue Berserker (voiced by Daisuke Endou)
“█████████—-!!!”
A Rogue Servant of the Berserker class. He is a long-haired fighter who boasts a muscular body. Being summoned as a Berserker, he has lost all sense of rationality. For whatever reason, he accompanies Takao Dayu.
■ System
Rogue Servants
Fate/Samurai Remnant will also feature a number of Rogue Servants throughout the game. These highly powerful warriors do not have Masters, and if you are able to form a bond with them, you will not only be able to temporarily borrow their powers, but some of them can even accompany you in battle! And while a few of these Rogue Servants have made appearances in past Fate series titles, like Rogue Lancer, Fate/Samurai Remnant also introduces all new Rogue Servants to the Fate universe, like Rogue Rider!
Various Encounters
In the town of Edo, you may encounter Rogue Servants. If you deepen your interactions with them and form a bond, they will become reliable allies who will help Iori and others with their great strength.
Spirit Font Conflict
An all-new gameplay element that features a competition between enemies for “spirit fonts” scattered throughout Edo. The players aim to acquire the spiritual fonts — that are ultimately the enemy’s strongholds—by making a mutually determined number of movements on a gridded map. When a spiritual font is acquired, a path passes through the ley line that connects it to one’s own base, temporarily boosting Iori’s abilities. Rogue Servants with a bond will be able to be moved as a separate unit to cooperate in the acquisition of spirit fonts. There are also Rogue Servants who will lend their assistance only in the “Spirit Font Conflict.”
Magecraft Workshop
Further helping boost Iori’s abilities will be his magecraft workshop located in town. This is where Iori can learn new skills that will be useful as he fights his way through the Waxing Moon Ritual. By strengthening the workshop, you can acquire skills such as the ability to have Rogue Servants accompany you in battle. There is even a sword maintenance minigame to be played in the workshop, with samurai who take care of their swords accordingly being rewarded with bonus effects in battle!
