Kaiju No. 8 The Game

Kaiju No. 8 is a Japanese manga-turned-anime written by Naoya Matsumoto. It originally ran on Shonen Jump+ over five years until July 2024 and is published in English as Monster #8.

The story revolves around Kafka Hibino, who gains the power to transform into a kaiju to defeat other kaiju. Following a successful anime adaptation and over 18 million manga copies sold, a video game based on the series was announced in June 2024.

As the launch date approaches, Japanese developer Akatsuki Games shared fresh footage from the title, including three new cutscenes.

One scene portrays a confrontation between Mina Ashiro, a character from Kaiju No. 8, and a massive 200-foot Kaiju.

In another cutscene, Third Division Vice-Captain Soshiro Hoshina battles against Kafka’s Kaiju form, showcasing several of Hoshina’s familiar abilities and emphasizing the game’s fidelity to the source material.

The third clip features Hibino clashing with Isao Shinomiya, the Defense Force Director General, who will also be a playable character.
