## Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Arc Gets Official Theatrical Release Dates
Aniplex and ufotable have confirmed that the highly anticipated *Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba — The Movie: Infinity Castle* will be the first of a three-part theatrical trilogy adapting the manga's climactic final arc. The first film is scheduled for a 2025 theatrical run in Japan, with international distribution to follow through Crunchyroll and Sony Pictures Entertainment.
**What to expect from the Infinity Castle arc**
The Infinity Castle arc represents the culmination of over 200 chapters of story — the final confrontation between the Demon Slayer Corps and Muzan Kibutsuji's assembled Upper Moons, set inside an impossibly labyrinthine castle that reshapes itself at will. Fans have long speculated that ufotable's visual approach to this arc would be the most ambitious animation project in the studio's history, given the combat sequences involving nearly every major character simultaneously.
In an interview with Aniplex, producer Hikaru Kondo stated: "We wanted to give this arc the space it deserves. A single film would have required too many compromises. Three films allow ufotable to deliver something truly definitive."
**Casting and music confirmed**
The full voice cast from the TV series returns for the trilogy. Composer Yuki Kajiura, whose work on the Mugen Train arc film was widely praised, will score all three films. LiSA is expected to contribute at least one new theme song per film.
**International premiere schedule**
The first film's international premiere is expected at major anime conventions in summer 2025, with wide theatrical release following within 90 days. Subtitled and dubbed versions will release simultaneously, a first for the franchise.
