FATE: Reawakened FAQ
Hey all! The first phase of the FAQ is here! As things develop and more questions are addressed, we’ll update this FAQ with the newest information.
Why bring back FATE now?
FATE is turning 20 next year! This amazing achievement and the small but wonderful community that has been playing and loving these fantastic games should be celebrated! We couldn't think of a better way to honor the brand than to ensure the adventures within FATE would continue by updating and optimizing the entire series for modern devices.
Why not a new FATE game?
Right now, we're fully focused on FATE: Reawakened. We can't confirm a sequel at this point, but with a growing fanbase, who knows what could happen?
What exactly is the FATE: Reawakened game?
FATE: Reawakened is the entire legendary series of: FATE, Undiscovered Realms, The Traitor Soul, and The Cursed King, bundled together into one improved and revitalized game.
What are the release details? (Release date, price, etc..)
We will share more details as soon as we can!

What video game engine is being used for this project?
FATE: Reawakened is being built in Unity.
Is this really a remaster or is it a remake?
We consider FATE: Reawakened to be a remaster since we are revamping the old graphics and UI as opposed to rebuilding the game from scratch. Remakes also sometimes take new creative liberties, add new features, or rework certain aspects of the game completely. For FATE: Reawakened, we are not fundamentally changing any gameplay significantly – we're just giving it a nice new coat of paint so-to-speak.

Will there be any new content included?
Our goal for FATE: Reawakened was always to keep the nostalgia intact while making the game more accessible on today's hardware.

It’ll keep the original OST - it’s pretty awesome as-is if you ask us!
