Kaiju No.8 The Game has officially launched for PC on October 1, 2025, bringing in new story quests and characters. In addition to the mobile version, the game is now available on Steam.

The Main Story Chapter 4: London Defense Operation will be accompanied by two new 5-star units: [The All-Rounder] Chester Lochburn & [The Inherited Will] Kikoru Shinomiya.

London Defense Operation: A dimensional gate has emerged in London, prompting the dispatch of Kafka, Kikoru, and Sagan to the scene. There, they join forces with CLOZER member Chester Lochburn to confront the armored Kaiju ravaging the city. While searching for a way to combat an enemy impervious to the Defense Force's weapons, Kikoru equips a pair of gauntlets that carry her father Isao's will.

To celebrate the release of the two new characters, Kaiju No. 8 The Game is hosting a special Gacha Fes event where, for every 3 10-pulls the players perform, they get the next 10-pull for free. It's important to note that single pulls do not count toward the total, so even if you perform 30 single pulls, you will not get a free 10-pull.

[The All-Rounder] Chester Lochburn: A calm and collected CLOZER member who formerly served in the British defense force as the captain of a special unit. He is a versatile fighter who masters countless weapon types. He brings new strategic depth to your gameplay by assembling optimal tactics for any situation.
- Character Story: One night in London, Chester meets up with Haruichi Izumo and heads to a pub together. Through their casual conversations and interactions, Chester's true self and his past—sides that are never seen on the battlefield—gradually come to light.

[The Inherited Will] Kikoru Shinomiya: Kikoru becomes a compatible user of the Dimensional Numbers Weapon 2, a weapon developed from the materials of a parallel-world Kaiju No. 2. Don't miss out on the destructive power of her fists as she masterfully wields the No. 2 Gauntlet, a sight reminiscent of her father, Isao Shinomiya.
- Character Story: On her day off, Kikoru reunites with Kafka at a family restaurant. Their casual conversation leads her to strengthen her resolve to master the Dimensional Numbers Weapon 2 and come to terms with her father's legacy.

The first Kaiju No. 8 game launched earlier this year.
