Pokemon Go was a bit of a revolution for smartphone gaming, but Sony has fired back with a huge hit Fate/Grand Order.
Sony Has A Hit Bigger Than Pokemon Go In Japan and China

Based on an anime called Fate, Fate/Grand Order allows gamers to play significant characters throughout time to save the course of the human race.

Be it Da Vinci, Joan of Arc or Julius Cesar, players can play as these characters and battle to save the course of time itself.

The app is only on limited release in Japan and China at the moment, where it has been downloaded more than 7 million times since it debut in July 2015.

Should the game go worldwide, it may become the next big thing in smartphone gaming, although some skeptics have questioned whether the rest of the world would adopt the anime story.

Pokemon, though as we know, was also an anime at one point so who knows.

At the moment there is no announcement of plans to roll out worldwide, but we definitely hope it will soon.
