Yesterday was Sony IR (investor relations) Day 2017 and President/CEO Kazuo Hirai, Music Entertainment CEO Rob Stringer and other C-level officers offered a look at the enterprise in Tokyo. Among the subjects discussed by Kaz Hirai was Fate/Grand Order. With over 8 million domestic downloads for the smartphone RPG (it's celebrating 9 million this week), 6 million in China, and expansion to the US, more anime was mentioned as an upcoming extension for the franchise.

A Fate/Grand Order: First Order anime special ran on New Year's.
