Hikari Shinomiya Makes a Grand Entrance in Kaiju No. 8 THE GAME as First ★5 Wind Attacker

Hikari Shinomiya Debuts in Kaiju No. 8 THE GAME

In a thrilling addition to the popular mobile game, Kaiju No. 8 THE GAME, players can now enjoy the prowess of Hikari Shinomiya, who has made her highly-anticipated debut as the first ★5 Wind Attacker. Co-produced by the visionary teams at Akatsuki Games, TOHO, and Production I.G, this announcement comes with an exciting special event titled Time of Radiant Splendor.

Hikari, known as [The Valkyrie], was previously the captain of the Japanese Defense Force's Second Division. A highly skilled combatant, she was notable for her compatibility with the advanced Identified Kaiju Weapons - Numbers 4. As the mother of the current user, Kikoru Shinomiya, Hikari carries the torch of strength and resilience.

Gameplay Mechanics and Skills

What makes Hikari stand out is her unique Flight Ability, which is exclusive to her weapon type. This allows her to navigate the battlefield with agility and power. Hikari boasts an impressive record of takedowns, making her one of the most formidable captains in the game’s lore. As a player, you’ll be able to leverage her incredible combat skills to gain a significant advantage in battles.

When Hikari activates her Ultimate, she enters an Acceleration state that enhances her damage output and speed, making her more lethal against enemies. However, it’s essential to note that while in this state, her Normal Attack, Combat Skill, and Follow-Up Skill will not contribute to recovering her Ultimate Gauge. This balance of mobility and damage output positions her as a strategic character within any team setup.

Her ideal weapon type, the Spear, complements her combat agility, allowing players to execute powerful attacks while keeping their enemies at bay. A freshly released ★5 weapon, the Lc-0039 (Spear), further enhances her capabilities on the battlefield.

Special Event: Time of Radiant Splendor

Accompanying her debut is the limited-time event Time of Radiant Splendor, where players can delve into unique stories centered around Hikari and other characters, including the beloved Isao Shinomiya. This event is not only about new characters but offers in-depth explorations of their personalities and untold stories, adding depth to the main storyline.

Participating in this event allows players to gather an impressive amount of up to 1,500 Dimension Crystals, which can be utilized for various in-game enhancements. The event also rewards players with an exclusive ★4 Gauntlet weapon, the Fs-Gaur 28, along with other valuable assets, such as a new backdrop for players' homes and further customization options within the game.
