Since the launch of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Hinokami Chronicles 2 on the 1st, the developers have confirmed that the formidable Kibutsuji Muzan will be arriving as part of a free post-launch update.

The Hinokami Chronicles 2 is a brawler that retells the narrative of the original Demon Slayer manga. It boasts a roster of over 40 characters and introduces flashy joint special moves alongside a new equipment system. As of the 7th, the title sits with a 'Mostly Positive' (78% positive) rating on Steam.

The upcoming free update allows players to take control of Kibutsuji Muzan in his Asakusa guise for Versus Mode. Furthermore, production has been confirmed for a 'Mugen Castle Arc Part 1' character pass, which will bring fan-favorite characters from the currently screening Japanese theatrical release to the Versus Mode roster.

In other news, the PS5 version of The Hinokami Chronicles 2 is hosting tournament events. You can test your mettle by joining online competitions directly within the game. For the nitty-gritty details, check out the official PlayStation Tournaments page.
