As previously reported, the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba manga (and game it is based upon) takes place in a historical fantasy version of Taisho-era Japan. Tanjiro Kamado is the child of charcoal sellers, and is out selling his families wares when they are attacked by demons.


By the time he returns home, his parents are dead and his sister has been corrupted. In order to save his sister and defeat the demon that killed his parents, Tanjiro gets himself recruited by Giyu Tomioka into the Demon Slayer Corps.

Along with Tanjiro, players will also be able to control Zenitsu Agatsuma and Inosuke Hashibira. While the latter is a savage, Zenitsu’s seemingly cowardly nature falls away when he falls asleep.
