26	* NewbieBoom: The game brought the attention of ''Warriors''/''Musou'' fans who became interested in the ''Fate'' franchise. It helps that the story is stand-alone and easy to get into without relying too much on the previous ''Fate'' entries.
27	* NoDubForYou: Like all ''Fate'' video games, ''Samurai Remnant'' doesn't have an English dub.
28	* PromotedFanboy: As revealed in [[https://www.reddit.com/r/fatesamurairemnantjp/comments/15ahq2z/nasu_and_shibusawas_fatesamurai_remnant_interview/ an interview]] from TYPE-MOON Ace Volume 15, Koei Tecmo CEO Kou Shibusawa is a huge fan of ''Fate/Grand Order'' and cited Shimosa as his favorite story. He's the one who requested KT producer Tomohiko Sho to pitch a project with Type-Moon to make a game with them.
29	* RecycledScript: ''Samurai Remnant'' is clearly intended as a new entry point to the franchise, and recycles much of the themes and plot beats from the original ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight''. Differences arise as the story wears on, but to wit: The Waxing Moon Ritual is a variation on the Holy Grail War, with various bugs and anomalies because the ritual is still in active development. Iori is quite similar to Shirou, being an amateur mage who hopes to protect others with martial skill, though his dead mentor thought this was an unattainable goal. Before he knows anything about the conflict or its special magics, Iori is attacked in the night by a rival Servant. By sheer luck, he saves his own life by summoning a Saber, an androgynous royal who wields a hidden sword. Horrified by the collateral damage of this first night, just like Shirou, Iori decides he must remain in the war to protect innocents, especially since things are just becoming peaceful and prosperous again after the carnage of years past (the UsefulNotes/SengokuPeriod here, or the previous Grail War in ''stay night'').
30	* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
31	** [[https://www.rpgsite.net/interview/14849-fatesamurai-remnant-interview-director-ryota-matsushita-answers-why-jeanne-alter-walks-the-streets-of-edo An interview with RPGSite stated]] Miyamoto Iori wasn't initially envisioned as the protagonist, only becoming one during the writing process.
32	** [[https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/16wf5qu/fatesamurai_remnant_launch_interview_23_4gamernet/ An interview with 4Gamer]] reveals that FGO's Osakabehime was considered to be one of the Rogue Servants, but Circe was chosen instead. Oskabehime was rejected because her connections to the female Musashi were too strong in FGO, and the staff didn't want to have to go deep into FGO lore.
33	** Original concept art for Iori and Saber more heavily took cues from [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Shirou and Saber]], before being given more distinct designs.
34	** As revealed in the FGO Chaldea Satellite Station 2023-2024 ~ Niigata stream, Ruler Gilgamesh wasn't supposed to be playable and is meant to be an enemy boss instead. But because of fan demand, he ended up becoming playable instead.
