Sega announced Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles – based on the hugely popular anime and manga series – will receive several new fighters playable via DLC character packs.
This paid DLC is coming to the game’s Versus Mode. A port of Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Chronicles of Hinokami was confirmed in February and will arrive on Nintendo’s hybrid platform on June 10.
Here are the confirmed DLC fighters:
– Tengen Uzui

The Switch version of Demon Slayer can be purchased via the eShop and will also be available on Sega’s website in physical form. Pre-orders are live now and come with a key that unlocks the Kimetsu Tanjiro Kamado Academy bonus character.
Here’s a little bit about this upcoming Nintendo release that combines elements of story, adventure, and combat into one exciting series based on the animated series. The Switch release will also include everything the other versions already have:
“Switch players can look forward to all of the great features found on other platforms, including all of the post-launch content added to the game like six new playable characters — Rui, Akaza, Susamaru, Yahaba, Enmu, and Yushiro & Tamayo; new online quests that reward Kimetsu Points to unlock additional rewards; and all balance changes made to the game’s combat.”
“It was the Taisho Period in Japan. Tanjiro, a kind boy who sold coal for a living, saw his family slaughtered by a demon. Worse still, his sister Nezuko, his sole survivor, was killed by a demon. Despite being devastated by this grim reality, Tanjiro is determined to become a “demon slayer” so that he can turn his sister back into a human and kill the demon that slaughtered his family. A heartbreaking brother and sister story in which the destinies of man and the devil are intertwined… begins now!”
