Kaiju No. 8 THE GAME, the joint project by Akatsuki Games, Toho, and Production I.G, has released main story Part 2 Chapter 1 'New Threat' as part of its 1st anniversary. The chapter sends Kafka, Iharu, and Suteddo through an artificial dimensional gate into parallel worlds to face Dimension-identifying Kaiju D. A new ★5 unit, [Shunretsu no Sai] Furuhashi Iharu, wearing an upgraded CLOZER suit, joins the gacha alongside the SG-Asukai shotgun.
The chapter picks up after Kafka's group defeats Dimension-identifying Kaiju A. Data pulled from A's remains points to a second threat, Dimension-identifying Kaiju D, whose next target is the power of Kaiju No. 8 itself. To meet it, Kafka, Iharu, and Suteddo pass through an artificial dimensional gate Suteddo built in secret and step into a multiverse of parallel worlds.
The new ★5 unit, [Shunretsu no Sai] Furuhashi Iharu, wears a CLOZER suit upgraded from A's specimen and carries the SG-Asukai shotgun. The game runs on App Store, Google Play, and Steam. On the anime side, the short series 'Narumi no Heijitsu' is set to stream in four episodes starting September 5.
