Exclusive Rewards: Collab Badge and Power-Up Mechanics

Players who acquire the Tanjiro & Nezuko unit for the first time will receive a special “Collab Badge.” Furthermore, if they obtain Kiriya Ubuyashiki from the MP Shop while already possessing the badge, it will upgrade to a more powerful “Collab Badge +.” These mechanics add a layer of strategy and collection incentive during the limited-time event.

Explore Story-Based Dungeons and Title Challenge

Two themed dungeons—Demon Slayer: Beginner Arc and Demon Slayer: Advanced Arc—will be available during the event. The Beginner Arc draws from the anime’s Final Selection to Mugen Train arcs, while the Advanced Arc centers on the Hashira Training Arc. Both dungeons offer animated backdrops and BGM matching the anime. Additionally, the “Hashira” Title Challenge dungeon, featuring a fixed team and time-attack format, allows players to earn the exclusive “Hashira” title upon completion.
