The Fate franchise is built entirely around legendary heroes fighting it out for the Holy Grail. And the newest game in the series, Fate/Grand Order gives anime makeovers to more of the greatest figures from myth and history than ever before.
Below is a gallery of all the new heroes included in the mobile title Fate/Grand Order. Of course, many old favourites return as well, but this gallery is for those making their Fate series debut.

I’m liking Fate GO, its a good game, sure there’s microtransactions and all but you really just don’t need them, plus as a big fan of the Fate series being able to play this game is great 😀 also, if anyone was wondering why the character for Zhuge Liang looks like Waver, is because he’s hosting the spirit inside his body as El-melloi (Waver) can’t become a Heroic spirit on his own
What, did you forget me? I am the only guy who could do what both eggman and nega couldnt do – i killed sonic.
Wow… Why does Julius Caesar portrayed as a fat chubby bloby looking guy??
