Rating Summary
Fate/Samurai Remnant is rated T for Teen by the ESRB with Alcohol and Tobacco Reference, Blood and Gore, Language, Suggestive Themes, and Violence. This is an action game in which players follow the story of a swordsman during the Edo Period of Feudal Japan. Players explore cities, interact with characters, complete objectives, and engage in melee-style combat. Players use swords to battle human enemies (e.g., ninjas, samurai) and fantastical creatures (e.g., demons, ghosts) in fast-paced combat. Battles are highlighted by sword-slashing effects, cries of pain, and blood-splatter when characters are hit. Cutscenes depict additional instances of violence and blood/gore: characters decapitating serpent creatures; a character's severed arm falling to the ground; a character impaled through the chest—blood pooling underneath the body. During the course of the game, the text makes several references to brothels and prostitution (e.g., “...{M]aybe we could keep that brothel map our little secret”; “...prices for time with a courtesan are quite high”; “It wouldn't be known for prostitution anymore.”). The dialogue contains references to alcohol and tobacco (e.g., “A sweet, easy-to-drink, luxury sake"; “I'm quite fond of this country's liquor”; “A favorite among drunkards at the food stalls”; “A vermillion pipe with burnt tobacco inside”); a handful of sequences depict characters holding smoking pipes. The word “sh*t” appears in the game.
