Kaiju No. 8 THE GAME Comes to PC on October 1

By Josh PiedraSeptember 17, 2025

Today, Akatsuki Games announced that Kaiju No. 8 THE GAME is coming to PV via Steam on October 1. It previously launched on iOS and Android devices on August 31 and has achieved over 3 million downloads to date.

Kaiju No. 8 THE GAME

Here are some of the Key Features of Kaiju No. 8 THE GAME:

  • hoose from Three Different Story Modes: The game offers an original “Main Story” branching from the manga and anime, “Memories” which allows players to revisit classic moments, and “Character Stories” to explore the relationships and interactions between team members. Each mode has its own unique appeal, allowing both longtime fans of Kaiju No. 8 and new fans to enjoy the experience fully.
    • Main Story: Follow original characters from the Closing Order with Zero Restrictions (CLOZER), a special unit led by Sagan Shinomiya, the non-blood-related older sister of Kikoru Shinomiya.  She moved to the United States and enlisted in the US Defense Force after being adopted into the Shinomiya family.
    • Memories: Relive iconic scenes from the Kaiju No. 8 anime and manga.
    • Character Stories: Highlights the daily lives and interactions of individual Defense Force officers in original scenarios.
  • Action-Packed Turn-Based Battles: In KAIJU NO. 8 THE GAME, players assemble squads of their favorite Japan Anti-Kaiju Defense Force officers and face down deadly Kaiju in an intuitive, turn-based combat system. Utilize officers’ unique skills and Ultimates, expose the Kaiju’s cores, and deliver a finishing blow!
    • Iconic officers join forces, including Kafka Hibino, Mina Ashiro, Reno Ichikawa, Kikoru Shinomiya, Soshiro Hoshina, Isao Shinomiya, and more.
    • Players form squads of four characters, so balance the characters’ strengths and abilities to create a well-rounded team. When characters fight together as battle buddies, they can coordinate to provide powerful support for one another in combat.
    • While the game’s controls are simple, characters’ and Kaiju’s abilities and unique traits introduce deeper layers of strategy to combat.
  • Character Development: In the game, players can nurture their favorite characters through a variety of growth systems, including enhancing attributes, skills, and equipment.
    • The game also features an equipment crafting system called “Unipart R&D,” where each crafted item has randomly generated stats. This adds depth to both selection and development, offering a gameplay style suited for long-term engagement.
    • Collect materials through specific quests to develop and strengthen the characters you love.
