The Fate/Stay Night Remastered release was horrendous on PC yesterday, with the wrong characters and scene🍃s being loaded in at times and pieces of scenery falling through the screen.

Fate/Stay Night is arguably one of the most influential visual novels ever made, and so its Remastered release yesterday, August 8, was incredibly anticipated by fans around the world. This is🌠 to say nothing of English fans who've been waiting 20 years for an official localization and a launch outside of Japan.

Unfortunately, the Type-Moon re-release didn't꧅ start off well. Over on Steam, users have been reporting some wild bugs, including the wrong character models and backgrounds loading into certain scenes and playing the wrong background music tracks. Look at some of the tweets below to see how bizarre things got for the remaster.

What's more, some players were seemingly being transported to some endings of Fate/Stay Night Remastered mere moments into the visual novel. Characters were also showing up with bright red eyes, and pieces of scenery were apparently falling through the scree💫n from above.

This is all ludicrous, but it appears Type-Moon managed to patch out all the🌜se bugs within just a few hours of launch. Currently, Fate/Stay Night Remastered holds a 'Very Positive' average user review grade on after more than 6🦩00 player reviews, a remarkable turnaround for a game that was basically unplayable at first.

"We have confirmed that there is currently a problem with the English version," Type-Moon writes in a post yesterday after la♛unch, adding "We are urgently investigating the cause, and plan to distribute a patch as sooꦉn as the investigation is complete."

Just a few hours after tha🔯t, Type-Moon published another post, writing "The problem of incorrect screen display in the English version has been corrected. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience or concern this may have caused." After that wild series of events, Type-Moon was remedied it all in just a few hours.
