Promising to grant any desire, the all‑powerful Holy Grail sparked three bloody wars before, each too merciless to crown a victor. Yet the affluent Einzbern clan believes the Fourth Holy Grail War will differ; they now hold a vessel of the Grail in their possession. For this alone, the despised "Magus Killer" Kiritsugu Emiya is contracted by the Einzberns, with marriage to their sole daughter Irisviel as a binding pact.
Kiritsugu finds himself at the heart of a ruthless survival contest, confronting six rivals, each wielding an ancient familiar and driven by distinct ambitions. Joined by his own familiar, Saber, the infamous mercenary soon faces his fiercest foe in Kirei Kotomine, a priest who seeks redemption from the void within himself while chasing Kiritsugu.
The battle draws masters from across history and myth, each summoning heroes to vie for the Grail"s power. Their motives range from vengeance to aspirations, making alliances fragile and betrayals inevitable.
Based on Gen Urobuchi"s light novel, Fate/Zero portrays the Fourth Holy Grail War—ten years before Fate/stay night. Observe a deadly showdown where survival is never assured.
