Kimetsu no Yaiba x Puzzle & Dragons collaboration announced

The Japanese side for Puzzle & Dragons will be having a collaboration event with Kimetsu no Yaiba, otherwise known as Demon Slayer. The collaboration will commence on 27 October 2020 and will run until 10 November 2020. At present, seven of the characters who will be appearing in the collaboration have been revealed, including:

• Kamado Tanjiro ( Water / Fire )
• Kamado Nezuko ( Fire / Dark )
• Agatsuma Zenitsu ( Light )
• Hashibira Inosuke ( Wood / Water )
• Tomioka Giyuu ( Water / Dark )
• Kochou Shinobu ( Dark )
• Tsuyuri Kanao ( Dark / Wood )

More characters are scheduled to be revealed over time from 19 October onwards until 23 October on the special website portal here. Tanjiro will be a log in bonus for the Puzzle & Dragons / Kimetsu no Yaiba collaboration. Currently, no further details regarding the collaboration itself have been revealed, regarding availability of the rest of the characters, the event dungeons and so forth.

More relevant to Japan, there will be a lead up follow and retweet campaign from 17 October to earn a variety of Kimetsu goods as well as signed boards. People can probably expect this to head over to the global server at some point, so stay tuned for more news about it in the future.

The Mugen Train movie will be airing in Japan on 16 October; considering Rengoku’s popularity he should be one of the characters available but we’ll see on the 19th onwards.
