KAIJU No. 8 THE GAME is continuing its first anniversary celebrations with a new playable character and an original short anime tie-in campaign. Starting September 14, a new 5-star character, [Unorthodox Pursuit] Suited, enters the battle. Additionally, to commemorate the release of the second episode of "Narumi’s Week at Work," a special login bonus campaign is currently underway in-game and will end on September 26.

New 5-Star (Unorthodox Pursuit) Suited Heads Into Battle

Suited, a member of CLOZER and a new 5-star character, will head into battle alongside her 5-star weapon HM-Spolcyc (Hammer). The new character is described as:

"Suited wears a prosthetic eye crafted from Kaiju A’s uniorgan. The resulting Kaiju A cell corruption has even altered her hair color. While this places immense physical strain on her body and is by no means a recommended practice, she herself is quite fond of this state and seemingly has no intention of giving it up, no matter what anyone says."

To celebrate the release of “Narumi's Week at Work” Day 2 “The Vice-Captain's Troubles” episode, a special login bonus is now underway. Players will be able to receive some more in-game rewards for logging into the game. Fans will be able to stream this on the official TOHO animation Channel
