As exciting as those two are, though, there's one anime game that's even more interesting - Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles 2. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:We've been waiting a while for CyberConnect2 to continue the excellent Ultimate Ninja Storm-esque start it made in 2021, but the sequel was finally ann🃏ounced just a few months ago.

Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles 2 Launches On August 5

Even though it's not been that loꦚng at all since the first trailer for The Hi🌸nokami Chronicles 2 was revealed and promised a launch in 2025, we already have another trailer that's cemented a release date of August 5. , shows a bunch of new footage compared to the relatively slim announcement we got in December.

Beyond showing off how cinematic❀ The Hinokami Chronicles 2's battles a𝓡re going to be and how well it's going to adapt the visuals of the anime and manga, the trailer also seems to show off a bigger focus on exploration. At one point, Tanjiro is seen jumping across rooftops in the Entertainment District, which looks a bit more open and explorable than the areas in the first game.

The trailer also sho♒ws👍 a lot more blood than I was expecting, with it opening on an injured Tanjiro with blood dripping down his eyes. It's a far cry from Sparking Zero's more friendly approach, I'll say that much.

We also get a few clips showing Inosuke and Zenitsu as playable characters in the story mode, which make♈s sense considering they were in the first game. The Entertainment District Arc trailer ends by showing the jaw-dropping fight between Tanjiro, Tengen, and Gyutaro, which looks spot-on to the anime.

Interestingly, , as it was confirmed that pre-orders for the Switch version of the game aren't going live just yet. That'll be coming at later date, although the game will still laun𝓰ch on the same day across all platforms.
