COLOGNE, Germany, Aug. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Following a highly successful Closed Beta Test that drew in over hundreds of thousands of players shortly after launch, Saroasis Studios officially announced the Early Access release date for its flagship title, Fate Trigger, set for 2026 Q1.
In a highly saturated and competitive market for battle royale and first-person shooter (FPS) games, Fate Trigger’s PC Closed Beta proved there’s still plenty of room to innovate. Combining anime-inspired style with strategic depth and a low barrier to entry, it delivers an experience for gamers of all skill levels. Riding that wave of interest, Saorasis Studios confirms that Fate Trigger will eventually support cross-platform play, and launch first-person point-of-view for select game modes, which will arrive as a future update.
Where Gameplay Meets Anime Fandom: Fate Trigger’s Expansion Beyond the Screen
As ongoing interest in battle royale games collides with the global rise of anime culture, today’s players want more than just matches. They’re chasing deep lore, iconic characters, and worlds they can dive into and explore with friends.
It’s this hunger for immersive universes that Saroasis Studios aims to satisfy. Today, the studio revealed that Fate Trigger won’t simply be a cross-platform game. It’s set to evolve into a living universe, complete with esports and community competitions, ongoing world-building, and even offline media releases.
