A thrilling update for Demon Slayer enthusiasts: the first film in the Infinity Fortress trilogy has unveiled a brand-new trailer, accompanied by a vague yet tantalizing release window.
Earlier this year, it was announced that to cap things off, Demon Slayer will be getting a trilogy of films covering its final arc, the Infinity Fortress arc. The sheer profitability of Mugen’s training regimen was hardly surprising, considering its relatively brief duration. Although issues had been relatively quiet since then, a stir was reignited when Crunchyroll unveiled a brand-new trailer for the highly anticipated trilogy’s first installment yesterday, also revealing a 2025 release window for the primary film. While clarity can be lacking, here’s an attempt to refine the text: It’s uncertain, as it could fall on any day within the year, but still, a specific month is better than none at all.
The simultaneous release of all three movies has been ruled out in favor of staggered launches, a decision that’s likely to spare fans’ wallets and also benefit the film’s producers, no doubt. While it implies a prolonged arc, the exact timeline remains uncertain; whether the releases stretch to 2026 or all occur within 2025 is unclear, as no specific launch dates were disclosed by Crunchyroll.
While most movies in this collection simply compile specific seasons, Mugen Training stands out as the sole film to tackle fresh storylines, debuting in October 2020. Despite being confined to indoor spaces for a significant 12 months, owing to the pandemic, the film surprisingly grossed over $500 million globally, solidifying its position as the highest-grossing Japanese movie of all time, surpassing the previous record held by 2016’s Your Title. While both Infinity Fortress and Mugen Practice are renowned for their impressive fighting mechanics, can they really go head-to-head in a battle of wits? The answer is still shrouded in mystery. Who is aware of! I’m confident that this venture will generate significant revenue in due course.
