Sega has released a new "free update" for Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- Sweep the Board! on the Nintendo Switch.
Players will now be able to experience a brand new board, some new minigames "and more". This content arrives in the Version 1.20 update - adding "Board Six" (themed around the Hashira Training Arc in the series).
"As players navigate around the spaces, they will encounter various characters, including Tengen Uzui’s wives Hinatsuru, Makio, and Suma, along with senior Demon-Slayer swordsman Murata, who will all be there to aid you in your journey. On certain squares, Hashira may even join in to train you!
"When day turns to night on Board Six, the Mist Hashira, Snake Hashira, and Wind Hashira will appear and put everyone’s skills to the test! All four players will need to work together to overcome their trials and emerge victorious."
The new minigames in this update include the following:
- Cold Soba Noodle Speed-Eating Contest! - Eat the cold soba noodles faster than the Water Hashira by quickly pressing the buttons in the correct order.
- Fly the Distance! - Send the paper airplane flying by stopping the gauge at just the right time. Flying into gusts of wind will slow you down.

No added playable characters with this update?
They get it! Why doesn't Nintendo do that with Mario Party?
Thats nice time to pull it out again. It wasn't as good as mario party but we had a bit fun with it and if the update it a bit more it could be a really good game
Huh, didn't expect this game to get an update and even more so such a substantial one, looking forward to it (I already have the base game as I got it physically discounted from my usual retailer here in Italy) even though I should finally read/watch Demon Slayer first and foremost!
Take notes Nintendo!
This is what should be happening with the Mario Party games or atleast some substantial DLC.
Would be nice if Nintendo added a new retro board to Jamboree that isn't from Mario Party 1 or 2...
Pleasently surprised. Previously the game got an update that increased the playable characters already, and lorewise it makes sense this update doesn't add new characters.
Unfortunately my main issue with the game remains and is visible in one of the new mini games...many of them, around half probably or even more, show you visuals that are correct canon-wise but are completely unrelated to your selected playable character. I mean, if I play a mini game about music and eating soba, and I choose to play as Inosuke, I want to see Inosuke eating the soba and playing the music, not Tanjiro or Zenitsu. It just seems lazy, and for a game I would play with little kids that can't see more mature content from the franchise, unnecessarily bothersome.
