- The film is also available to rent or buy on Prime Video, Apple TV, Fandango at Home, and YouTube Movies & TV starting the same day.

Demon Slayer Infinity Castle OTT Release – What We Know
Crunchyroll and Aniplex confirmed the streaming date during a dedicated Infinity Castle panel at Anime Expo 2026 in Los Angeles on July 4. Crunchyroll subscribers can watch the film in Japanese with English subtitles, in English dub, or in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu dubs, depending on region. Netflix’s rollout is narrower by comparison, covering select Asia-Pacific territories while excluding Japan, Mainland China, and India, and Muse is handling licensing across parts of Southeast Asia. Viewers who’d rather rent or buy outright have options too.
[NOTE] Prime Video, Apple TV, Fandango at Home, and YouTube Movies & TV are all carrying the film as premium video-on-demand, priced at $19.99 to buy or $14.99 to rent, with an early discount reportedly available within the first 48 hours of release.
[UPDATE] One outlet reported a July 29 debut tied to a Canadian Prime Video listing, a day later than the date confirmed by Crunchyroll, Netflix, and most other coverage, so check your local storefront if the film isn’t live yet.
What This Means for Demon Slayer Fans
This is the fastest a major theatrical anime release has moved to a full digital release window in recent memory, especially given how long Infinity Castle kept circulating in cinemas. The film saw repeated re-releases, including another Japan theatrical run as recently as June, months after its planned final screenings back in April.
[PRO TIP] If you’re catching up before diving in, Crunchyroll also hosts every previous Demon Slayer season and the Mugen Train movie in the same sub and dub formats, so you can rewatch the lead-up to the Infinity Castle arc without switching platforms.
Rated R, the film picks up right where the anime’s Hashira Training arc left off, following Tanjiro Kamado, Nezuko, and the Hashira as they’re pulled into the Infinity Castle to face the Upper Rank demons before the final battle against Muzan Kibutsuji.
What’s Next for the Trilogy
Infinity Castle is only the first of three films adapting the manga’s ending. Reports around the film’s original announcement pointed to a second installment targeting 2027, with the third film expected to follow in 2029, though neither date has been reconfirmed since the streaming rollout.
