Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Cuts into Puzzle & Dragons for the First Time as New Film Hits Theaters

Slow your breathing and use your head to protect those you care about the most

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. – May 14, 2021 – Your time has come to aid and protect the weak so that they will become strong. Perfectly timed with the new film, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba the Movie: Mugen Train, join the Demon Slayer Corps and face off against vicious, supernatural beings in a brand-new Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba collaboration for Puzzle & Dragons. Now through May 27, players can train alongside their favorite characters from the critically acclaimed manga.

Players will be rewarded with Child of Brightness, Tanjiro Kamado, as a free login bonus during the duration of the event. Tanjiro isn’t alone – his sister Nezuko, his friends, and the Hashira are all ready to put their lives on the line to take down the Twelve Kizuki. Whether you prefer Water Breathing, Thunder Breathing, or Beast Breathing, these new characters and their techniques will fit a range of playstyles.

Dungeons
Two new dungeons and classic enemies stand in your way, but no matter what, you can fight! Become stronger and follow Muzan Kibutsuji to the ends of Hell!

• Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba is a special dungeon with five different difficulties. Clearing it gives players a chance of receiving items like Demon Slayer Medal – Gold.
• Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba-Fixed Team is a Fixed Team dungeon that rewards players with Demon Slayer medals and one pull from the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Memorial Egg Machine for the first-time clear.

Monster Exchange
During this event, players can exchange collected Demon Slayer Medals for a Warding Mask from Urokodaki. You don’t need to complete Final Selection to fight with the Demon Slayer Corps this time, but it can still protect you from harm.

Special Bundles
