Sydney, Australia – 13th February 2024: SEGA® debuted a new trailer for Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- Sweep the Board!, scheduled to launch for Nintendo Switch on the 26th of April 2024.
Check out the latest trailer below:
In the new video, fans are introduced to the core gameplay of Sweep the Board! which includes a look at some of the exciting minigames and events which can all be enjoyed with up to 4 players. All of this takes place on dynamic boards that are themed around memorable locations from the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba anime, including Tsuzumi Mansion, Mt. Natagumo, and the Mugen Train.
Players also get a look at the “Demon Slayer Dice” – each Demon-Slayer swordsman has their own set of dice that has unique special effects according to that character. Once used, a cooldown timer of 3 turns begins, so they will need to use this feature effectively. Finally, if a different character joins your group, you will be able to use their Demon Slayer Dice!
Fans can expect an experience that caters to players of all ages and skill levels, fostering laughter and enjoyment for everyone!
