Fate/Stay Night Creator’s New Movie Confirms 2026 Release With New Trailer

by

Ufotable, the renowned animation studio known for its work on the Fate/stay night series and the hit Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, is starting a new movie based on another creation by the same author. A short trailer has just been released, giving fans a first look before the film premieres later this year. The studio is currently working on several projects, and this new movie adds to their growing list of exciting releases.

A new movie adaptation of the visual novel Witch on the Holy Night is coming soon! It shares a connected universe with other popular works by Kinoko Nasu, such as Tsukihime and The Garden of Sinners. Studio Ufotable, known for its high-quality animation, has released a first-look trailer for the film, which is scheduled to be released in Japan in 2026. You can watch the trailer below while we wait for more details.

Witch on the Holy Night Movie Confirms 2026 Release

The anime film Witch on the Holy Night is scheduled to be released in Japanese theaters later this year, as shown in a recently released teaser trailer. Specific details about the release date are still forthcoming, even from the film’s creators. The project has been in development for several years, but it appears to be following a similar path to other anime adaptations of works from the Type-Moon franchise.

Originally released in Japan in 2012, Witch on the Holy Night is a prequel to the popular game Tsukihime. Fans are hopeful that Ufotable will bring the same high quality animation to this project as they have to other Type-Moon games. The story lends itself well to a film adaptation and will likely be easier for newcomers to enjoy compared to titles in the Fate series. However, there’s currently no news about when it will be available outside of Japan.

What Is Witch on the Holy Night About?

Witch on the Holy Night is an easy-to-follow story about Aoko, a young girl unexpectedly thrust into the role of heir to her family’s magical traditions. While she’d rather not be learning magic – her sister was originally meant to inherit – Aoko must now study it and become involved in a conflict far larger than she imagined.

This is a backstory to the Tsukihime visual novel, and it seems like it will provide all the necessary background information for fans when the new movie is released. This increases the chances of the movie being available internationally after its debut in Japan. In the meantime, you can enjoy the work of studio ufotable in the Fate/stay night movies, which are currently streaming on platforms like Crunchyroll.
