Honkai: Star Rail x Fate/Stay Night Crossover Leak Teases Epic Holy Grail War Gameplay

honkai star rail and fate stay night saber collab

A major Honkai: Star Rail leak has surfaced, revealing gameplay details for the highly anticipated Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works crossover event in Version 3.4. According to trusted leakers, this will be HoYoverse’s most ambitious collaboration to date, allowing players to dive into a full-on Holy Grail War scenario, recruit Saber and Archer, and engage in unique Fate-inspired missions across Amphoreus.

What We Know So Far: Honkai x Fate Gameplay Breakdown

The leaked gameplay video, shared by leaker Stelle the Galactic Baseballer, shows that the Fate event in Honkai: Star Rail may play like a Divergent Universe tournament mode. Here are the key takeaways:

  • Seven Classes, Seven Opponents: Just like the Fate series, the Holy Grail War will involve players choosing a class (Saber, Archer, Lancer, etc.) and battling against seven other competitors.
  • Event Structure: The gameplay resembles Simulated Universe, with buffs and modifiers similar to Blessings and Curios.
  • Character Roles: Fan-favorite Honkai characters are reportedly being assigned “Servant” classes. For instance, Jingliu as Saber, Kafka as Caster, and so on.
  • PvP or PvE? It remains unclear whether the Holy Grail War is PvE-focused or has competitive PvP elements.

Two 5-Star Characters – One Free

One of the most exciting parts of this crossover is that Archer will be completely free for all players upon the release of Version 3.4. This is a huge win for both free-to-play and paying players alike. Saber, on the other hand, will reportedly be available through the standard event warp or banner system, making her a premium 5-star addition.

Why This Crossover Stands Out

  • First Full-Scale Collaboration in HSR: Unlike the Aloy collab in Genshin Impact or Asuka in Honkai Impact 3rd, this event has gameplay depth, storytelling, and two banner-worthy characters.
  • Story Integration: Leaks suggest that Fate-themed side quests and dialogues will be woven into the ongoing Amphoreus storyline.
  • Permanent Mode? Some speculate the Holy Grail War might be added as a new Simulated Universe expansion, following examples like Swarm Disaster.

Community Reactions So Far

Initial fan reactions have been positive, with many praising HoYoverse for giving the Fate IP the respect it deserves:

“It looks like they actually understand Fate lore… assigning the classes is such a nice touch.”

“This is already 10x better than Genshin’s Horizon collab. And we get two 5-stars? Sign me up.”

Even Fate/Stay Night fans who don’t normally play HSR are taking notice, with the possibility of bringing a wave of new players into the game.

Why This Matters

The success of this collaboration could pave the way for future HSR crossovers with other iconic franchises. With HoYoverse’s attention to detail and strong IP partnerships, we could one day see collabs with other anime or game properties such as Re:Zero, NieR: Automata, or even Persona 5.

If the leak proves true, Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.4 will become a must-play chapter in the game’s history, drawing in fans from both the anime and RPG communities.

Stay tuned for more details as we get closer to the official launch in early July 2025.
