New Trailer & Release Date for Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles

Anime fans finally have a fresh look at the new Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles. Sega has released a new trailer and also the release date for the game, which is coming to all major consoles and PC.

Mark your calendars for October 15th as Demon Slayer will be available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

With the release date, Sega has also given us a new and extended look at how the game will play. When it was first announced back in February, the scant details made the game look like a generic 3D arena fighter. But the new trailer is showing us that it will have some open-world elements in it as well.

In the story mode, players will control the franchise protagonist Tanjiro Kamado as he embarks on a quest to become a Demon Slayer to return his now demon sister, Nezuko, back to her human self. The trailer shows that the narrative will follow the same plot as the anime, with Tanjiro enduring the brutal training before he undertakes the Final Selection exam to become a part of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Fights against various kinds of demons will be the primary source of action, but Tanjiro will also clash against some non-demon opponents, like the fox twins Sabito and Makomo. There is also going to be a fight against The Hand Demon.
