Fate/EXTRA is set on Earth in 2030.
The world of EXTRA differs from that of Fate/stay night in that it follows a different timeline and events starting from 1970. History took a different path.
Mana, the energy required to carry out large scale magecraft, has dried up, and magecraft has been lost from Earth.
The magicians of old have disappeared from center stage, and the era of magic has drawn to a complete close.
From then on those who called themselves “magus” came to represent Spiritron Hackers, a new generation of mankind.

“The minds of people are now accustomed to regulation, and civilization is stagnant.
There are no great tragedies, but neither are there new discoveries.
