Fate/Grand Order Surpasses 1 Million Downloads in U.S. and Canada
LOS ANGELES, CA (August 31, 2017) – On Tuesday, the tremendously popular mobile game, Fate/Grand Order, announced on its official Facebook page that it has surpassed 1 million downloads in the U.S. and Canada. To commemorate this milestone, Fate/Grand Order challenged fans to help them get 10,000 likes and 2,000 shares on their Facebook post to unlock a bevy of prizes, including 18 Saint Quartz, 4 Summon Tickets, 3 Golden Fruits, and up to 130 Mana Prisms. The post took less than 30 minutes to reach 2,000 shares and a little over an hour to exceed 10,000 likes, as fans answered the call in full force. The announcement also revealed the arrival of 5-star Berserker class Servant, Sakata Kintoki, a Fate/Grand Order exclusive character known for his fondness for anything gold. The Facebook post showcased a video of Sakata Kintoki's Noble Phantasm, “Golden Spark,” along with the Noble Phantasm video of ★4 (SR) Altria Pendragon [Alter] and ★4 (SR) Martha. Released in June of this year, the game is currently available in the U.S. and Canada on the Apple App Store and Google Play.
“Since a gold record signifies one million records sold, we wanted to celebrate one million downloads with the Fate/Grand Order character who epitomizes gold,” says Localization Producer of Fate/Grand Order (English Version), Albert Kao. “His favorite phrases are ‘gold’ and 'golden.' His favorite dog is the golden retriever. Who better to celebrate our golden milestone than Sakata Kintoki?”
Fate/Grand Order warns players that Sakata Kintoki will not be available in the Story Summons after the Pickup period, which starts August 31st midnight PDT and ends September 13th 8:59 pm PDT. Furthermore, different Servants will be featured each day as an additional pickup Servant, including ★5 (SSR) Altria Pendragon, ★5 (SSR) Altera, ★5 (SSR) Jeanne d'Arc, ★5 (SSR) Vlad III, and ★5 (SSR) Zhuge Liang (El Melloi II). Rewards for the Facebook campaign will be distributed from September 6th 9:00 pm PDT to September 20th 8:59 pm PDT. Players can also look forward to half off on AP costs for various Daily Quests starting August 31st to September 13th.
One of the most successful mobile role-playing games ever in Asia, Fate/Grand Order has players summon powerful allies or Heroic Spirits, who are based on popular historical, literary, and mythological figures such as Joan of Arc, William Shakespeare, Spartacus, and Mozart. The game takes players back through history to embark on an epic quest known as the Grand Order. The mobile game has been called “the most addicting game I've played on my phone” by David Estrella of Ani-gamers and the “otaku event of the summer” by Gabriella Ekens of Anime News Network. Last month, the official Apple App Store Games tweeted, “We were curious why Fate/Grand Order was so popular. Now we can't stop playing it.”
Further details of the North American version will be released regularly on the official website (http://fate-go.us), Facebook (@FateGO.USA), and Twitter (@FateGO_USA).
