Spells and swords clash in deadly combat in Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works, a feature-length adaptation of the hit television series that amps up the action and gives the popular tale plenty of new twists. Join teen mage Shirou and his companions, beautiful spirit knight Saber and powerful magic-wielding schoolgirl Rin, as they are plunged into an epic battle for the Holy Grail.

Unlimited Blade Works is directed by Yuji Yamaguchi, who also helmed the Fate/Stay Night TV series, and stars Noriaki Sugiyama (Naruto's Sasuke, Bleach's Uryū and England in Axis Powers Hetalia) as Shirou. Ayako Kawasumi (Fuu in Samurai Champloo) plays Saber, Kana Ueda (Yumi in Maria Watches Over Us) plays Rin and Junichi Suwabe (Greed in Fullmetal Alchemist) provides the voice of Archer.

The Fifth Holy Grail War is upon us. Mighty magi contending for the wish-granting Grail summon the seven classes of Heroic Spirit - Saber, Archer, Lancer, Rider, Berserker, Caster and Assassin - to do battle on their behalf. However, a wand is thrown into the works when good-natured but untalented teenage mage Shirou Emiya stumbles upon Archer and Lancer fighting, and is himself attacked.

Saved from death by the beautiful, blonde-haired Heroic Spirit Saber, who adopts him as her Master, Shirou finds himself dragged into an all-out magical war for the Holy Grail. He also gains a human ally in the shape of his popular schoolmate - and heir to the powerful Tohsaka magus family - Rin, whose own Servant is the sarcastic Archer. Drawn into a web of shifting alliances, spell-slinging sorcerers and deadly spirits, Shirou is going to need all the friends he can get...

Think you know the Fate/Stay Night story? Well buckle up, because Unlimited Blade Works is no mere retread of the TV show. As well as adrenaline-pumping action scenes that reap the benefit of the movie's bigger animation budget and improved sound, Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works has some major surprises up its sleeve - including the true identity of Archer, which was never revealed in the original series.
