Fate Stay Night Game

Not just Fate/EXTRA Servants, but characters from Fate/stay night, Fate/Apocrypha, Fate/Grand Order, Fate Zero and other Fate series will make appearances. You can enjoy the game in Japanese audio with English subtitles. Chinese, Korean, and Japanese text is also available. A Brand-New Story from the Series’ Author, Kinoko Nasu. One of the most notable things about Fate/Stay Night is the overall presentation. This is not exactly what you would call a “new” game and I feel that this is one of the first visual novel style games to really go all-in with its visual style. Seriously this is a wonderful looking story that is brought to life with some truly breathtaking art.

Fate/stay night is an adultvisual novel developed by Type-Moon.

The game is the first installment of the Fate series of the Nasuverse. It was originally released in Japan on January 30, 2004 with its First Print Limited Edition release, followed by a standard edition that was released on March 26 the same year. The game later received subsequent re-releases on PlayStation 2, PC, Vita, iOS, and Android as Fate/stay night (Réalta Nua), which removed the adult content from the original game, thus changing some story scenes to reflect on these changes, but featured new content that was exclusive to the PlayStation 2 version until its 2011 PC version. The original 2004 game was re-released along with its sequel, Fate/hollow ataraxia, as part of the Fate/stay night+hollow ataraxia Set for the series' 10th anniversary in 2014 and was reprinted in 2019.

Despite this game not being released outside of Japan, a fan-made English patch by visual novel translation group mirror moon is available.

Essential improvements[edit]

Run without disc[edit]

An official 'NoCD' executable for the 2004 release can downloaded from the developer's website here. This executable is not needed when installing mirror moon's English patch which removes the disc check for the CD and DVD releases.

English patch[edit]

mirror moon's English patch also has the option to port over the fully-voiced dialogue from the PlayStation 2 Réalta Nua version into the original 2004 game, provided the user has the PlayStation 2 disc.
How to install the English patch[1]
  1. Download the English patch by mirror moon here.
  2. Run the installer, then follow its instructions. If you wish to install the voice-overs, the installer will ask to insert the PlayStation 2 Réalta Nua disc, whether it is inserted into your disc drive or a disc image using a CD drive emulator.

Note

Installing the voice-overs from PlayStation 2 Réalta Nua disc the into the PC version will take a long time to install than translating the game into English without it.

Uncensor Mod[edit]

The sex scenes are censored in the original Fate/stay night. Thorny Rose Studios has created a mod designed to work with mirror moon's English translation patch that removes the mosaic censorship of the game's sex scenes.
This mod includes a folder containing a comparison of the censored and decensored versions of game's sex scenes, however, some scene in comparisons contain spoilers, so view them at your own discretion.
How to install the Uncensor Mod[2]
  1. Download the Uncensor Mod for the original 2004 Fate/stay nighthere.
  2. Extract the contents of the FSNUncModv*.zip file to its own folder to a convenient location on your computer, copy the patchX.xp3 file into <path-to-game>.
  3. Right-click patchX.xp3 and rename it by changing the X in the Uncensor Mod's file name to a number higher than any other patch*.xp3 file. Example: If there's a patch1.xp3, patch2.xp3, and patch3.xp3 file already in the game's installation folder, then the X in Uncensor Mod's file name should be changed to patch4.xp3.

Fate/stay Night Game H Scenes

THMprod2020-07-1220 points

Fate/stay

For all question :
It's is work on W10 ?
Yeah, it s better to install fate too :) (no soft to open iso with W10)
It's a Realta Nua ?
No, it s the original game, Realta Nua is not an abandonware... Not today ;)
Is the route 1 ?
No, there have the 3 route (fate, UBW and HF, check the walkthrough to understand)
How Install the voice Patch ?
You need the PS2 Iso of Fate/Stay Night ~ Realta Nua with the english setup installer (the voice patch need 1 hours to be installed !) and the PS2 iso need to be open in a virtual cd
How setup Fate Stay Night (With voice patch and uncensored) on W10 :
Extract .mdf and rename .iso (W10 have a native support to root iso without soft)
Take a PS2 iso and root it too
Lunch english Mirror moon's setup and add voice patch option
Select your game's folder
Install game
(Wait 1 hour...)
Congratulation you can play with Fate English.exe (or something like that)
You want to play with uncensored mode (unofficial, it s a fan's photoshopping)
Extract PatchX.xp3 in a game folder and rename it to Patch7.xp3
I hope i'll help you

sario2020-07-092 points

Question: this it's the Fate stay night original right? not the realta nua?

Plat2020-05-12-2 points

How do I setup the game with the English patch and uncensor mod?

Obaidul2020-04-151 point

voice didn't work

qba2020-04-100 point

If you're having problems with installation using built-in setup (error looking for .txt file), the solution is to change system locale for non-unicode applications to Japanese. Here's how:

sobekgog2019-07-010 point

ShiroVC2019-06-221 point

Why I can't install VoicePatch ?

binary2019-05-262 points

There are my way to install game.
1. Change .7z to ISO.
2. Unpack ISO archive.
3. Mount mdf/mds with something like daemon tools to virtual disc
4. DO NOT INSTALL game from disc, you'll fail anyway, just copy setup dir to your games directory. Rename setup to Fate, if you wish.
5. Install English patch at this directory.
6. Run Fate.exe to play.

Y2019-05-02-2 points

do i need to copy the file on disc to install the game

Ermanya2019-04-080 point

Yep it work no problem with windows 10

X2019-04-01-2 points

Is this work on Win 10? :)

Archer2019-02-202 points

File needs to be renamed to .ISO file extension, but is a valid ISO format file.
Installation is not in English and errors out while looking for a text file late in the installation. Full instructions install instructions, or (I assume) Japanese language packs for your operating system and fluency in the language required.
