As someone who has been enamored with anime since the early days of Sailor Moon and Dragon Ball Z, the announcement of Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles 2 has sent me into an uncontrollable frenzy! Having grown up on the original manga and following its incredible adaptation into a beloved anime series, I’ve been eagerly awaiting any news about the game’s sequel.

A follow-up to the widely acclaimed video game adaptation based on the anime series “Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles” is scheduled for release in 2025, following a recent announcement by publisher Sega. This new installment promises to expand the scope of the action and adventure game, developed by CyberConnect2 – the same team behind the primary “Demon Slayer” game launched in 2021. The upcoming game is expected to be playable on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC platforms in 2025.

In 2019, Demon Slayer made a significant impact as one of the top-rated animes of its era. Since then, it has spawned numerous movies, video games, and even a live stage play based on Koyoharu Gotouge’s original manga. Though the manga series concluded in 2020, the anime adaptation remains ongoing with upcoming TV specials leading up to the highly anticipated final chapter.

Currently, a fresh trailer from Sega showcases an upcoming sequel titled Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles 2. Similar to its predecessor, this game will be an action-adventure fighting title allowing players to command characters from the series. As per the trailer’s disclosure, the game boasts numerous returning characters along with a host of new additions. These new faces will primarily consist of the Hashira, the elite demon hunters who will lead the storyline this time around.

Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles 2 Adds Various New Anime Elements

In terms of the plot, the trailer suggests several major storylines that could be featured in the game. Scenes from the Mugen Train movie and the main villain of the Entertainment District arc from the anime are both depicted. The trailer didn’t show much about gameplay, but it seems reasonable to expect that the game will play like other titles developed by CyberConnect2, such as the Naruto: Ultimate Ninja series.

The anime has explored genres beyond fighting, with its video games. For instance, “Demon Slayer: Sweep the Board” transformed it into a digital board game, much like “Mario Party.” Additionally, “Hinokami Chronicles” has seen numerous DLC packs released post-launch, featuring characters from later story arcs and enhancing gameplay options for both single-player and online battles.

It’s been hinted that “Demon Slayer” could show up in “Fortnite” soon, during its current season, based on some leaked information suggesting character skins for the online battle royale as part of Chapter 6 Season 1. However, the exact timing is yet to be confirmed. Given Fortnite’s past practices with collaborations, it appears that this crossover might be released shortly.
