History VideoGame / FateExtra

** [[KudzuPlot A tangled and unfocused plot]] [[ContrivedCoincidence which relies heavily on coincidence as a plot device]] [[ShockingSwerve and frequently implements twists more focused on shocking the audience than making sense]].

* InfantImmortality: Averted. You're forced to fight and kill two, though [[spoiler:Shinji]] was YoungerThanHeLooks and Alice [[spoiler:was DeadAllAlong]].

* HGame: And how!

* ZettaiRyouiki: Rin, Rani and the playable Caster in ''Extra'', BB from ''CCC''.

** From ''LightNovel/KaraNoKyoukai'':

A remake of the original entirely ''Fate/Extra Record'' was announced with the 10 year anniversary in July 2020.

** In Fate/Extra CCC, Caster revealing [[spoiler: her enormous goddess form]] is almost identical to the protagonist meeting [[VideoGame/DarkSouls Gwynevere.]]
** A narration in CCC if you choose Gilgamesh as your servant has this.
--> [[spoiler:The Naked King Posed Provocatively]]. [[{{Franchise/Pokemon}} It's super effective]].

** VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Or you can say no if you're feeling particularly cruel.

* AntiGrinding: The amount of XP you gain from beating enemies drops the higher your level is and XP requirements for the next level increase greatly every level.
** Levels follow a set formula. The XP needed is always (Current level^2) x 10.

* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:You stop Twice's plans to create a ForeverWar and obtain the Holy Grail, but you are essentially erased in the process and your female partner is the only one to truly escape the Holy Grail War. She's looking for your real body, but it won't have any of your memories since you're just a copy of that person. And the real world is still stagnant and oppressed, but at the very least the Holy Grail War is no longer deadly and Twice can no longer use the Moon Cell to make things worse]]. Welcome to the {{Franchise/Nasuverse}}!

* BonusBoss: [[spoiler: The original has Shiki Ryougi. CCC includes three more bosses of [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Rin Tohsaka]] and Alternate Playable Archer, Kotomine and Lancer, and Twice H. Pierceman and Playable Caster. All three appearing thanks to the [[RealityWarper Moon Cell]].]]

* DeadpanSnarker: Apparently a requirement of the Archer class. The playable Archer takes this trope UpToEleven.

--> '''Lancer''': ''"[[LaughingMad Hahaha]], salivate in anticipation, my wife! For soon, there will be meat in your unsatisfied cavity."''
--> '''Lancer''': ''"[[SomethingElseAlsoRises My spear rises]] in giddy joy when I ponder my luck in meeting you!"''

-->'''Assassin''': ''"Want to feel something, boy/girl?"''
-->'''Assassin''': ''"Ooh, a spirited one! I'm glad you came this way, boy/girl."''

* EarnYourHappyEnding: [[spoiler: In CCC, with the CCC Route Ending (though [[BittersweetEnding Bittersweet]]), and the Servant Endings.]]

** InSpiteOfANail: [[spoiler:You still face the Harway brothers, Julius and Leonard, as the fifth and seventh Masters respectively.]]

* HotterAndSexier: Fate/Extra CCC is this in ''spades'' to the first game, to the point where it earned a CERO D rating. This is likely one of the factors that prevented its export at the time.

* MagicFromTechnology: In the virtual world, people with coding skills are equivalent to magic-users because they can warp the artificial reality by hacking; they're even called "magi" by the system.

* MultipleEndings: In CCC. [[spoiler: The Servant Endings require one to collect their Secret Gardens.]]

** [[spoiler: Gilgamesh Servant Ending. Gilgamesh appears and reveals that the Protagonist's original servant was a Berserker and saves them from the Moon Cell by sacrificing ''90% of his NP treasury'' and defying the Moon Cell in the process. He then takes them to a alien world 1500 lightyears away, with the two planning on exploring this new alien world.]]

** Taiga refers to her Taiga Mug as ''"[[LordOfTheRings My Precioussss]]."''

* TheBerserker: [[CaptainObvious Berserker-class Servants]].

* GenderFlip: As before, a couple of Servants are female incarnations of male historical figures.

** Shinji's VillainousBreakdown does a 180º turn when it's revealed that [[spoiler: he's just a eight-year-old boy]].

* BeehiveBarrier: Whenever someone is hit while using ''Guard''. ''Break'' shatters the the barrier.

* AlasPoorVillain: Some of the enemy Masters exits show they weren't necessarily villainous ''people'', just villains in that they happened to be your opponent.

* HotterAndSexier: Fate/Extra CCC is this in ''spades'' to the first game. This is likely one of the factors that prevented its export at the time.

** The protagonist shows shades of this as well, especially if you pick certain options when organizing their information before a week's Elimination Battle. Picking some of the EntertaininglyWrong options leads to some gems, such as the protagonist deducing that the enemy's Noble Phantasm is called is called "The Five Kitties of Cuddly Squee!" and remarking that they wish they were being done in by "fluffy-wuffy kitties of doom... *meow*" They also do this a fair bit in the narration, unprompted.

A {{Sequel}} called ''[[http://www.siliconera.com/2011/09/05/fateextra-ccc-destined-for-psp-this-spring/ Fate/EXTRA CCC]]'' was released in Japan on [[http://www.siliconera.com/2012/12/27/see-the-saber-and-the-other-three-servants-in-fateextra-ccc/ 28 March 2013]]. It features a brand new story dubbed the "Far Side" arc, in which a failed Holy Grail War has caused the SE.RA.PH system to collapse and the tournament world to descend into lawlessness, forcing the few surviving Masters to cooperate to escape. It includes [[AndYourRewardIsClothes new costumes for the main characters and the returning Servants]], and a new playable Servant (Gilgamesh), but [[NoExportForYou was not released outside of Japan]]. It later gained a manga called ''Fate/EXTRA CCC Fox Tail'', and formed the basis of the "SE.RA.PH" arc in ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'', acting as both a re-telling and a sequel to the events of the game.

* AllThereInTheManual: There are many details explained in the Fate/Extra side materials including plans for [[WhatCouldHaveBeen five Sakura Alteregos instead of two]] and more details into certain events in the backstory and the abilities of characters.

An original anime story set in the world of ''Fate/EXTRA'' titled ''Anime/FateEXTRALastEncore'' aired in 2018 on television and streaming services (as a "[[Creator/{{Netflix}} Netflix Original]]", subbed and dubbed in multiple languages).

''Fate/EXTRA'' is a {{Spinoff}} of the VisualNovel ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'', developed by [[Franchise/{{Nasuverse}} Type-Moon]] & Creator/{{Imageepoch}} and released for the PSP in 2010 by Marvelous AQL. Described by some as ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' [[JustForFun/XMeetsY meets]] ''Franchise/ShinMegamiTensei'' or ''[[Franchise/DotHack .hack]]''. Similar to the later entries in the ''VideoGame/{{Persona}}'' series, it is a combination of VisualNovel and RPG elements based around a TacticalRockPaperScissors system.

The game is an AlternateContinuity from ''Fate/stay night'', taking place TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture[[note]](According to WordOfGod, it diverges from the ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' timeline in 1980, but the standard Nasuverse ShrugOfGod disclaimer applies.)[[/note]]. This time, the Holy Grail War is being fought in {{Cyberspace}} between 128 Masters, under the administration of the SE.RA.PH (Serial Phantasm) system. Because there are so many Masters, the Holy Grail War is arranged like a [[TournamentArc single-elimination tournament]], with Elimination Battles occurring at the end of each in-game week.

[[HelloInsertNameHere You]] are one of the competing magi (either [[PurelyAestheticGender male or female]]), and can select a Servant of the [[FighterMageThief Saber, Archer or Caster]] class at the beginning of the competition. However, there's a snag: you have [[IdentityAmnesia no memories]] and (thus) no motivation to fight, which could prove deadly in a competition filled with people who will do anything to achieve their desires. The only way to escape with your life (and perhaps recover your lost memories) is to survive and win the Holy Grail War.

Aksys Games localized it, releasing it on 11/1/11.

The game includes [[AndYourRewardIsClothes new costumes for the main characters and the returning Servants]], a new selectable Servant (Gilgamesh) and a new story dubbed the "Far Side" to ''Fate/EXTRA'''s "Near Side"[[note]]A MythologyGag to the routes of ''VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}'', which in turn referenced the light and dark sides of the Moon[[/note]] in which a failed Holy Grail War has caused the SE.RA.PH system to collapse and the tournament world to descend into lawlessness, forcing the Masters to cooperate to escape. In more typical Type-MOON marketing, [[NoExportForYou it was not released outside Japan.]] It later gained a manga called ''Fate/EXTRA CCC Fox Tail''.
