Following the typical release pattern of anime movies on Crunchyroll’s streaming platform after their theatrical run, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle may come out sometime between late January and mid-February. A similar trend was seen with Spy x Family Code: White and Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle (2024) movies.
Both of them took roughly 4 to 5 months to arrive on OTT platforms for streaming. However, this is still speculation and could vary depending on the movie’s box office performance. If it continues doing well in theaters, the streaming release may be delayed further.
Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle: When and Where Will It Be Available Online?
Based on the above information, we can estimate Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle is expected to be released online anytime between January 29, 2026, and February 12, 2026. But as already mentioned, these are simply our estimations.
Now, one can rest assured, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Infinity Castle – Part 1: Akaza Returns will surely come out on Sony Pictures Entertainment’s Crunchyroll streaming platform. The platform already has all the previous Demon Slayer seasons and movies, and is the official licensor of the IP outside Japan.
However, viewers will need to purchase a monthly subscription to stream it online. Crunchyroll has three different subscription tiers. All of which come with a free seven-day trial period. To watch Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle once it releases online ad-free, the fan-tier ($7.99 per month) will suffice.
Apart from Crunchyroll, Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle is also expected to be available to watch on Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, and Apple TV. However, a significant delay can be experienced on such platforms, followed by the movie’s early release on Crunchyroll.
