Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Part 1 - Akaza’s Return has fans all over the world very excited, and in just weeks from now, the vast majority will have watched it. The wait isn't easy, however.

For the rest of the world, specifically the other North America and Europe, fans will have to wait for September. For the US specifically, the official theater release date is September 12, 2025. Interestingly enough, a new release date has now been provided to the fans, and it's a lot sooner than the initial one, but there's a catch.
