Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles

Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles is a stunning action fighting game developed by CyberConnect2 and published by Sega for Nintendo Switch — the definitive Demon Slayer video game experience that faithfully adapts the beloved anime and manga series with extraordinary visual fidelity. Relive the emotional journey of Tanjiro Kamado from the beginning of his story through the Mugen Train arc in a beautifully presented Story Mode, then battle with a roster of iconic Demon Slayer characters in the deep and exciting Versus Mode. With CyberConnect2's signature anime-faithful presentation and a combat system that captures the breathtaking Breathing Techniques of the series, The Hinokami Chronicles is an essential experience for fans of Demon Slayer.

Story Mode — Relive the Demon Slayer Journey

The Hinokami Chronicles' Story Mode faithfully adapts the Demon Slayer anime from the very beginning — following Tanjiro's tragic discovery of his family's fate, his training under Sakonji Urokodaki, his journey through the Final Selection, and his adventures as a Demon Slayer through the Mugen Train arc. The story is presented with stunning anime-faithful cutscenes and gameplay sequences that make players feel like they are living inside the anime, with all the emotional weight and spectacular action that has made Demon Slayer one of the most beloved anime series of all time.

Breathing Techniques — Spectacular Combat

The Hinokami Chronicles' combat system is built around the iconic Breathing Techniques of the Demon Slayer universe — Water Breathing, Flame Breathing, Thunder Breathing, Wind Breathing, and more — each with their own spectacular visual effects and devastating attack patterns. Tanjiro's Water Breathing forms flow with fluid grace, Zenitsu's Thunder Breathing strikes with blinding speed, and Rengoku's Flame Breathing burns with fierce intensity — every character's fighting style is a faithful and visually spectacular representation of their abilities from the anime.

Roster of Iconic Demon Slayer Characters

The Hinokami Chronicles features a roster of beloved Demon Slayer characters available in Versus Mode — including Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu, Inosuke, Giyu, Shinobu, Rengoku, Akaza, and many more iconic heroes and demons from the series. Each character is faithfully recreated with their signature abilities, Breathing Techniques, and visual style, making Versus Mode a celebration of the Demon Slayer cast.

Anime-Faithful Visual Presentation

CyberConnect2's signature cel-shaded visual style makes The Hinokami Chronicles look indistinguishable from the anime in motion — the character models, special effects, and environments are rendered with extraordinary fidelity to Ufotable's acclaimed animation, making every battle and cutscene a visual spectacle worthy of the series' reputation.
