Next ‘Jujutsu Kaisen’ Release Officially Hit With Massive Delay
The viral hit Vampire Survivors developer poncle has announced a delay for its upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen Rumble: Survivaton crossover game. Originally scheduled for 2026, the game will now release in 2027—the same year as the anime series’ next season.
The survivors royale features 8-player online battles where contestants engage cursed spirits and rivals to become the last player standing. Players build custom loadouts and unlock rule-changing effects throughout matches, combining strategic preparation with real-time combat. The game’s Steam page emphasizes the competitive nature of the experience, with players working to “outscore other contestants on your way to the final showdown.”
Poncle’s crossover blends Vampire Survivors’ roguelike arcade action with the Jujutsu Kaisen universe, giving fans a new interactive way to experience the franchise. By coordinating the game’s release with the anime’s next season, the companies aim to maximize audience engagement across both mediums.
The delay announcement came via the game’s latest trailer, with no official explanation provided for the shift to 2027.
