"Demon Slayer: Hinokami Chronicles" will be released on PS4, PS5, Steam, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S by the end of 2021.
With the announcement of Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu and Inosuke's participation in the game and an introductory video, many are probably wondering which character will be announced next!
In the past, information has been released in conjunction with announcements in the Weekly Shonen Jump magazine, which is released on Mondays, and this time, the introduction video for the new characters will be released on Monday, March 1, 2021, just in time for the Jump's release!
"Giyu Tomioka", a Water Hashira!
The video "Character Introduction 05: Giyu Tomioka" was released this time.
Giyu Tomioka is depicted in the main visual of "Demon Slayer Hinokami Chronicles" and can be seen in the "Development Progress Report Vol. 2", so we had assumed that he would be joining the game, and now he has been officially announced.
Versus mode!
Giyu Tomioka is a Water Hashira, and like Sumijiro, he uses "Uchi-Ushio" and "Seisei Ru-ten" because he is a water breath user, but he also seems to be able to use "Water Breath, Type I Nagi" which is unique to Giyu Tomioka.
He is a Hashira and I wonder if his strength will be exceptional. I am looking forward to see he uses it!
Who will be next?
With the announcement of Giyu Tomioka, all the characters that have been shown in the videos and main visuals have been introduced.
Then the next announcement will be the real reveal of new characters.
Will it be an entry from the Oni Killing Squad? Or will it be an oni announcement this time? Perhaps the next announcement will be in conjunction with the JUMP magazine, so let's wait for the Weekly Shonen Jump issue 2021-14, which will be on sale on Monday, March 8!
