Kaiju No. 8: The Game Expands with New Character
In an exciting update for fans,
Kaiju No. 8: The Game introduces a brand new character, Narumi Guren, who is equipped with the formidable Identification Monster Weapon (known as Numbers) No. 1. This addition, developed by Akatsuki Games and in collaboration with TOHO and Production I.G, brings new dynamics to the gameplay.
Narumi Guren: A Hero of the Future
Character Overview
Narumi Guren is categorized as a ★5 character with the ability to foresee the future, aptly titled
[The Power to See the Future]. This makes him not just visually striking but strategically beneficial in battles. His
special skill allows players to debilitate enemies by putting them in a vulnerable state before launching a counter-offensive. When allies attack enemies marked with this vulnerable state five times, they will destroy random resistances, significantly increasing the chances of victory.
In addition, any successful assault on an enemy in a challenged state grants the attacker a damage buff, enhancing the overall firepower of the team. This unique ability aims to shift the tide of battle, rewarding players who effectively use strategic teamwork.
New Weapon
Alongside Narumi Guren, a new weapon,
GS-Ōyamatsumi (Gun Blade), also makes its debut. This weapon complements Guren's abilities, enabling players to engage in heavy-hitting attacks while maintaining an edge against foes.
Character Backstory: “Eyes That See the Future”
A character story titled
“Eyes That See the Future” has also been released, featuring Narumi as he prepares for a showdown with Kaiju No. 9. In a quest for strength, he dives into archives, studying past records of Kaiju No. 1. During this exploration, he unexpectedly encounters Itami, reigniting memories of past advice he received, pushing Narumi to strive toward exceeding his limits and taking a significant step in his journey.
Players can experience this character’s storyline directly in-game by accessing it from the character section under stories.
