Soshiro Hoshina Joins Kaiju No. 8 Game

Kaiju No. 8 The Game welcomes Soshiro Hoshina as the newest playable 5-star character. This in-game debut follows his pivotal role in Episode 22 of the anime, which premiered on September 20th.

As Vice-Captain of the Defense Force's Third Division and a scion of the Hoshina Family, Soshiro brings his signature skills to the battlefield. True to the anime's depiction of his battle against Kaiju No. 10, he wields the powerful Identified Kaiju Weapon No. 10 in-game.

Summoning the [United Front] Soshiro Hoshina character also provides an opportunity to obtain his exclusive 5-star weapon, SW-Susanoo. This pair of twin swords is perfectly suited to his agile and precise combat style.

A new story chapter has been added under the Story > Characters section, chronicling Hoshina's personal journey as he learns to control a weapon with a will of its own.

This narrative explores the activation experiment of the Identified Kaiju Weapon, which contains the core essence of Kaiju No. 10. The game has released a new Character Trailer for [United Front] Soshiro Hoshina—watch it below!
