Kaiju No. 8 Game Introduces Exclusive Character Sagan Shinomiya

• Kaiju No. 8 unveils a unique original character for its game
• Sagan Shinomiya, Kikoru Shinomiya’s enigmatic adoptive sister, joins the cast
• Details of her backstory and role remain secret until release

Anime and manga fans know that some series boast sprawling casts, and Kaiju No. 8 is no exception. The upcoming Kaiju No. 8: The Game introduces an exclusive original character, adding fresh intrigue to the franchise.

In Kaiju No. 8: The Game, the storyline diverges from the original series, with mysterious gates appearing across Japan, unleashing waves of colossal monsters. To counter this threat, a new organization joins the Kaiju Defense Force to seal the gates and battle the beasts.

This group, named CLOZER (Closing Order with Zero Restrictions—yes, really), is led by the original character Sagan Shinomiya, featured on the left in our main image. As Kikoru Shinomiya’s mysterious adoptive older sister, her backstory, abilities, and role in the narrative are tightly under wraps by the developers.

Epic Monsters

It’s common for anime and manga-based games to introduce original characters, often as protagonists. These characters typically act as player avatars, helping newcomers navigate the complex worlds of established series.

Notably, developer Akatsuki Games is heavily investing in Kaiju No. 8, especially after their other anime adaptation, Tribe Nine, was discontinued just three months post-launch. This shift may leave fans cautiously optimistic about the game’s prospects.
