Fate/EXTRA Record Shinji Faction Trailer Revealed [Confirmed]

Fate/EXTRA Record developers TYPE-MOON and studio Meteorise have officially debuted the Shinji Faction trailer in October 2026, offering players an in-depth combat reveal of Shinji Matou alongside Rider Francis Drake inside the reconstructed Moon Cell Holy Grail War arena.
