News summary
HoYoverse published the Version 4.4 trailer, "In Ravages Does the Whistle Sound," on July 3, 2026. The update is scheduled for July 15. Himeko • Nova is the headline new character, and the Fate/stay night [Unlimited Blade Works] collaboration continues into the version.
Announcement overview
The trailer frames the next chapter around an apocalyptic course and a mournful whistle, and sets the tone for the version rather than listing its contents. HoYoverse's trailer page confirms the title and the video; the July 15 date and the Himeko • Nova focus come from the current release coverage.
Anyone planning pulls at the end of Version 4.3 should treat banner durations, maintenance timing, reward eligibility and regional schedules as unconfirmed until HoYoverse publishes the in-game notices and event pages. Nothing in the trailer establishes those.
Key details
The version continues the Fate/stay night [Unlimited Blade Works] collaboration rather than starting a new one.
