Two of the more popular forms of entertainment nowadays are gaming and streaming. Both are available at home, accessible, and easy; what’s not to like about them? Now, one of the popular genres that people enjoy is anime. It holds great romance, action, suspense, horror, and many more titles. If you look hard enough, I guarantee you will find a title that catches your attention.
Combining these two offers a great fusion of captivating storytelling and engaging gameplay. Anime provides rich
narratives and settings made by their authors and writers, while gaming offers active control from the player.
Playing your favorite main character in their world sounds great, right? This article will delve into specific
examples of games inspired by your favorite shows on Viu, so stick around!
Demon
Slayer
Video game: Demon
Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles
Demon Slayer took the anime world by storm with its breathtaking animation, curious characters, and intense battles.
If you would love to relive season 1, The Hinokami Chronicles goes through key series moments, allowing the player
to live in these intense sword battles. Like Tanjiro’s water-breathing forms, the game’s combat and
graphics are fluid and dynamic, making it a must-try for avid fans.
One
Piece
Video game: One Piece Odyssey
If you haven’t caught up yet with the shows but need your pirate fix, maybe its gaming version is the way to
go! One Piece has definitely been a cornerstone in the anime and manga world for years—offering merchandise,
toys, and video games. One Piece Odyssey is a game that brings the vast and vibrant world of anime right to your
fingertips. Players can embark on their own journeys as they explore diverse islands and engage in epic battles.
The game's open-world design perfectly mirrors the expansive and adventurous nature of the "One Piece" universe,
providing an immersive experience for fans of the series. What are you waiting for? Start your journey!
Boruto: Naruto Next
Generations
Video game: Naruto to Boruto:
Shinobi Striker
You better believe it! You'd better believe that Naruto has tons of games out there, but since Viu offers Boruto, we
needed to provide a title with Boruto in it.
Masashi Kishimoto's "Naruto" franchise has left an undeniable mark, and Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker takes a
different approach as it focuses on team-based multiplayer battles. Players can create their own ninjas and engage
in battles inspired by the Naruto universe. Its emphasis on teamwork and strategy adds a fresh perspective to the
ongoing beloved ninja saga.
That
Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime
Video game: SLIME - ISEKAI
Memories
One of my personal faves, this game invites players to explore the fantasy world that Rimuru Tempest hops into, being
able to build a team of characters seen in the show and engage in strategic battles. The game adapts the charm of
the anime, offering fans a chance to interact with Rimuru Tempest and other inhabitants of the Jura Tempest
Federation.
Anime's influence on the world of video games is evident and can also be done the other way around: games inspire a
new series. Why? Both are capable of captivating audiences through their story and quirky gameplay. As technology
advances, the synergy between anime and video games is likely to produce even more memorable adaptations, allowing
fans to continue exploring and participating in the worlds they love.
If you like gaming and watching your favorite anime shows, you need a good tandem! With Viu
Premium and PLDT Home, you will remain connected to both your
online matches and heart-touching anime moments with its fiber-fast speeds!
