Shueisha Games said on September 15, 2026 that Jujutsu Kaisen RUMBLE: SURVIVATON has moved from a 2026 release window to 2027. The stated reason is to deliver the game in a better form. A specific date will be announced later. The survivors battle royale is developed by poncle, the studio behind Vampire Survivors, and is set for Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam, with one to eight players and an online mode for up to eight. A second trailer is out. It shows the Co-op Build system, in which level-ups let a player fold another character's normal techniques into their own attack build, and pixel art for eight bosses, among them Naoya Zenin, Kenjaku, Junpei Yoshino, Jogo, Mahito, Uraume, Eso, and Toji Fushiguro. The same eight bosses appear in the playable demo. Price and rating are undecided.
The playable demo at Tokyo Game Show 2026 will run the online battle royale mode, where eight players collect points and the top two advance to a final one-on-one match for first place. The build is unfinished. Anime Anime describes it as a version where characters and gameplay feel are still being adjusted, and a survey runs at the venue.
- Dates: Makuhari Messe, September 17 to September 21, with the Shueisha Games booth in Hall 5 (05-C10).
- Bosses in the demo: the same eight from the trailer, including Naoya Zenin and Kenjaku, both first shown at the Jujutsu Kaisen 5th anniversary event Juju Fest 2026 last month.
- Novelty set: a Pixel Sticker & Uchiwa Fan Set for playtest participants and wishlist registrants, 10 sticker kinds in all. One Yuji Itadori sticker plus one random sticker from the other nine; playtest winners get the full set.
- Fan art: the uchiwa front has Yuji Itadori drawn newly for the game by MAPPA, the back a battle scene design with Cursed Spirits in pixel art.
- Booth: matches stream on the booth screen with commentary by esports casters.
The pixel art is handled by poncle, the studio founded by Luca Galante. The manga by Gege Akutami ran in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2018 to 2024, spans 30 volumes, and has passed 150 million copies in circulation worldwide with digital.
