The collaboration will feature elements from Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works. This anime adaptation by ufotable is known for its stunning visuals and action-packed scenes. While details are limited, fans are already speculating about potential character additions and skins.

Release Window

HoYoverse has set the release window for this collaboration in the third quarter of 2025. This means you can expect to see it sometime between July and September of next year. It’s quite a wait, but it gives the developers plenty of time to create something special.

Shared Themes and Inspirations

Interestingly, both Honkai Star Rail and Fate/Stay Night share some common elements. The class system in Fate/Stay Night is similar to the path system in Honkai Star Rail. Both focus on heroic figures and epic battles.

In fact, Honkai Star Rail’s lead producer David Jiang has mentioned that some of the game’s characters were inspired by Fate/Stay Night. This makes the collaboration feel like a natural fit.

This isn’t HoYoverse’s first collaboration. They’ve previously done crossovers with other anime franchises in their games. Honkai Impact 3rd for example, had a well-received collaboration with Evangelion.
