Following last year’s massive success, the world of Kaiju No. 8 is roaring back into Anime Expo 2026 as “KAIJU NO. 8 THE GAME,” co-produced by Akatsuki Games, TOHO, and Production I.G, returns to North America’s largest celebration of Japanese pop culture. From July 2 to July 5, fans are invited to the West Hall (Booth WH-1150) for an all-new, highly immersive booth experience.
Booth Concept: “CAPTURE THE KAIJU CODE”

This year’s booth features an interactive, technology-driven scavenger hunt designed to let fans witness the game’s evolution over the past year.
Interactive Booth Highlights
- The “Kaiju Code” Hunt: Attendees will hunt for QR codes hidden across the booth’s walls and floors. Scanning these codes triggers spectacular character evolution sequences on the giant monitor.
- Exclusive Giveaways: Participants in the interactive hunt will receive a random, exclusive rubber strap featuring chibi-style designs of the game’s beloved characters.
- In-Game Rewards: Players will also have the chance to score limited serial codes to redeem Dimensional Crystals (in-game currency).
Don’t miss your chance to witness the evolution of the Defense Force!
