Jul 31, 2025Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles 2 is a better sequel in just about every way. While the actual fighting mechanics remain unchanged due to the absence of new additions, more characters from the start and expansions to a few modes give the game some real legs, whether you're playing solo or with friends and rivals. While this still doesn't reach the heights of the developer's previous Naruto titles, this is easily the best of the Demon Slayer titles so far, and it's an easy purchase for fans of the series and anime fighting games in general.

Jul 31, 2025Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles 2 is a very competent arena fighting game, making full use of CyberConnect2’s expertise in the genre. Beyond that, it delivers top-notch visuals that are on par with the original work, which became popular largely due to this very trait. It's just unfortunate that its need to follow the anime’s release schedule harms the playable content — which can only be described in one way: it's unfinished.

Aug 7, 2025Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles 2 is a good continuation adaptation of the anime. While it doesn’t do much to set itself apart from the first game, the almost quality-of-life changes make it feel like a justified experience.
