Demon Slayer collaborations in 2026: chairs, a smartphone, games and cafés

A series that makes headlines does not only live on television. Since the success of the film Infinity Castle, Part 1, released in France on 17 September 2025, Demon Slayer has been multiplying collaborations with brands that have nothing to do with animation: a chair brand, a smartphone brand, a mobile game publisher, theme parks, restaurants and even a traditional Japanese festival.

This article rounds up the Demon Slayer collaborations of 2026, those you can see or buy in Europe and those that stayed in Japan. All dates are given as of 10 November 2026. For the characters who appear most often on these items, our page on the Hashira of Demon Slayer presents the nine Hashira one by one.

Which Demon Slayer collaborations in 2026?

The year’s calendar was a busy one. The series’ Japanese website announces a new collaboration almost every month, and most of them revolve around the same faces: Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu, Inosuke, and the most popular Hashira, Giyu, Shinobu and Rengoku.

Two families stand out. On one side, items sold worldwide, such as the Secretlab chairs or the games. On the other, Japanese events, often limited to a few weeks, that draw fans on site: cafés, parks, hot spring baths, neighbourhood festivals.

These collaborations have one thing in common: they use illustrations drawn for the occasion by ufotable, the studio that animates the series. Each partner receives its own artwork, which makes every event a small collector’s piece for fans. Our article on ufotable, the studio behind Demon Slayer explains how the studio works.

Secretlab: the demon slayers’ chairs arrive in Europe

The most visible collaboration for a French fan comes from Secretlab, the gaming chair brand. It launched its collection in June 2023 on its TITAN Evo model, with five editions: Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu, Inosuke and Giyu. In May 2024, Rengoku and Shinobu joined the range, just before the Hashira Training season began.

Each chair reproduces its character’s outfit down to the smallest detail. Giyu’s is the only one in leatherette: its wings carry the two halves of his haori, and the sword embroidered on the backrest turns from black to blue with heat. Nezuko’s, in pink fabric, bears the hemp leaf pattern of her kimono and, in the middle of the backrest, her bamboo muzzle.

Zenitsu’s, in yellow, shows the sparrow Chuntaro on the shoulder and a sword crossed by lightning on the back. Inosuke gets his blue-eyed boar head. Rengoku’s chair carries his motto in Japanese, “Kokoro wo moyase”, meaning “set your heart ablaze”, embroidered at the top of the backrest.

For those who already own a TITAN Evo, Secretlab also sells covers, the SKINS, in the colours of Rengoku and Shinobu: they dress an existing chair without replacing it. In early November 2026, the brand’s European store features the Giyu, Rengoku, Shinobu and Nezuko editions. Check the sizes and editions offered in your country before you decide, as they vary from one market to another.

A chair at that price is not something you replace every year. If you want to give your desk the colours of the Flame Hashira without changing your seat, our Demon Slayer desk mats cover the whole width of a gaming station.

Our guide to a Demon Slayer gaming setup covers the rest of the desk: keyboard, mouse, controller and decoration.

Xperia 10 VIII: a smartphone that changes its look

In Japan, Sony chose the series to launch the Xperia 10 VIII, released on 8 October 2026. The phone introduces a feature called Fan Sync: you place a card on the back of the device, and the lock screen wallpaper, the home screen wallpaper and the sound that plays when charging starts all change at once.

To celebrate the launch, Sony gives two Fan Sync cards from the series to the first 20,000 buyers who register: one shows Tanjiro alone, the other Tanjiro with Zenitsu and Inosuke. The offer applies to purchases made until 13 December 2026, and registrations close on 20 December.

The campaign only covers Japan: the Xperia 10 VIII is sold there by the carriers docomo, au and SoftBank, and SIM-free. It still shows how much the series works as a showcase: a phone brand chooses Tanjiro to explain a new feature, because everyone recognises him.

In France, the simplest way to put the demon slayers in your pocket is still a case. Our Demon Slayer phone cases are available for iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, Xiaomi, Huawei and Honor.

Our article on Demon Slayer phone cases helps you choose the right one for your model.

Seven Knights Re:BIRTH: Tanjiro and the Hashira in another game

Demon Slayer has its own games, starting with Hinokami Chronicles 2, released in 2025. But the series also turns up in games that have nothing to do with demons. In October 2026, it was Seven Knights Re:BIRTH, a mobile role-playing game published by Netmarble, that welcomed the demon slayers from 1 to 29 October.

The collaboration came in two waves. Tanjiro and Zenitsu arrived first, then Giyu Tomioka and Shinobu Kocho joined the game in mid-October. Nezuko appeared as a legendary companion, and an event mode recreated the Infinity Castle. It was the second time the game and the series had teamed up.

It is not an isolated case: the shooter Knives Out also announced a second collaboration with the series in July 2026. These partnerships last a few weeks, then the characters leave. Players who obtained them keep them, the others wait for the next return.

For fans who play on console, Giyu and Shinobu also appear on our Switch and controller cases, the same duo as in the second wave of Seven Knights.

Our page on Demon Slayer video games brings together all the games in the series, and our article on Hinokami Chronicles 2 presents the latest one.

The biggest ufotable café opens in Ikebukuro

On 8 August 2026, ufotable opened the ufotable CHARACTERS Cafe IKEBUKURO, on the second floor of Grandscape Ikebukuro, the building of the Grand Cinema Sunshine in Tokyo. It is the largest of the cafés the studio runs itself. The menu and merchandise draw on its series, the demon slayers first among them, and a new illustration is unveiled there every month.

For the opening, the cinema next door screened two films from the series from 21 to 27 August: Mugen Train, in a theatre with Dolby Atmos sound, and Infinity Castle, Part 1, in its special IMAX version. Viewers received a postcard among five designs.

This IMAX version is a first for a Japanese animated film: some scenes extend towards the top and bottom of the screen, in the 1.43:1 format of the large IMAX theatres. It had first been screened in Japan in February 2026. Our article on Infinity Castle, Part 1 tells the story of the film without giving anything away.

Fans planning a trip to Tokyo will also find the places that inspired the series in our article on the real places of Demon Slayer.

Baths, parks and restaurants: Demon Slayer’s Japanese summer

Summer 2026 was all about family outings. From 18 July to 4 October, the Hakone Kowakien Yunessun hot spring park, near Mount Fuji, offered “the wisteria rest”: baths and a sauna in the colours of the series, drinks and exclusive items, featuring Tanjiro, Zenitsu, Kanao, Giyu and Shinobu. Wisteria, the flower that repels demons in the story, gave the event its name.

In Tokyo, the indoor theme park Namja Town hosted its seventh collaboration with the series from 21 August to 4 October, this time around the demons drawn by ufotable. The event has gone on tour: it is being held at the Bandai Namco Cross Store in Hakata, Fukuoka, from 30 October to 23 November 2026.

Restaurants followed. The family restaurant chain Joyfull launched a campaign from 14 July, and the bakery Heart Bread Antique signed its first collaboration on 1 July. The “mini demon slayers”, the costumed mascots who represent the series at events, celebrated their fifth anniversary on 3 July.

These Japanese events do not travel to France. If you want to bring the atmosphere of a series café into your home, our Demon Slayer mugs and the rest of the tableware in the demon slayers’ colours have the same effect at breakfast.

The Awa Odori in Tokushima, with the voices of Zenitsu and Inosuke

Tokushima is the home city of studio ufotable, and every summer the series takes part in the Awa Odori, one of the biggest dance festivals in Japan. In 2026, the festival was held from 11 to 15 August, and for the second year the series sent its own troupe, the “Kimetsu-ren”.

On 14 August, the troupe danced through the streets with Hiro Shimono, the Japanese voice of Zenitsu, and Yoshitsugu Matsuoka, the voice of Inosuke, both already there the year before. The public could sign up through a draw, and some of the places went to Tokushima schoolchildren. The mini demon slayers of Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu, Inosuke, Giyu and Shinobu danced with them.

Ufotable drew a new illustration for the occasion, with the characters wearing festival outfits. The appearance celebrated the full rebroadcast of the series on Japanese television, which began in 2026. Our article on the Japanese voice actors of Demon Slayer presents the voices of the series.

Two months later, on 17 and 18 October, Tokushima also hosted Machi Asobi, the animation festival the studio co-organises. Natsuki Hanae, the voice of Tanjiro, took the stage there with Yoshitsugu Matsuoka and Makoto Furukawa on 18 October, in front of the audience and live on the ABEMA platform.

Fortnite: the long-awaited collaboration is still not confirmed

This is the collaboration fans talk about most, and it does not exist yet. For several seasons, leaks have announced the arrival of Tanjiro and his companions in Fortnite. None has come true so far.

On 6 October 2026, the Fortnite account replied to a fan post showing characters from One Piece, Demon Slayer and Chainsaw Man. Specialist websites saw it as a sign, but as of 10 November 2026, Epic Games has announced no date, no characters and no content. Until Epic or Aniplex publish it, a release date remains a rumour.

If the collaboration arrives, it will probably follow the model of the other series that have come to the game: character outfits, accessories, sometimes an iconic weapon. Here, everyone is waiting for the Nichirin sword. Meanwhile, our Demon Slayer keycaps and keyboards put the demon slayers under your fingers in every match.

To find all the characters mentioned in this article, from Giyu to Inosuke, our page on all the characters of Demon Slayer presents them one by one, and our article on Giyu Tomioka, the Water Hashira looks back at the haori that so many partners reproduce.
