They’re Akaze and Rui, and they will come with the first free update after release. Its timing has not been announced just yet.

Three more updates will come, delivering two more demons each, but it’s worth reminding that they will be playable in the versus mode only, which I guess isn’t exactly shocking.

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Hinokami Chronicles, will launch in Japan and Asia on October 14 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, Xbox One, & PC. The western release was just announced a few weeks ago and will come one day later, on October 15.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
