Western release plans were announced right after the Japanese reveal, and fans can look forward to bringing the action with them on the go with their Switch starting on June 10.
The Switch version of The Hinokami Chronicles includes everything the other versions started with, as well as the six playable characters—Rui, Akaza, Susamaru, Yahaba, Enmu, and Yushiro & Tamayo—that have since launched as DLC and some new online missions.
The physical launch edition is now up for pre-order, packing the full game with 1 Kimetsu Academy Character Unlock Key (Tanjiro Kamado).
