Demon Slayer season 3 is set to be released in April 2023 in the USA. However, the first episode of the new season has already premiered in theaters as part of a world tour organized by Ufotable.
The film, titled Demon Slayer: The Mugen, was released in North American theaters on March 3, 2023. It included the first episode of season 3 as well as the final two episodes of the Entertainment District arc.
While the film has received positive reviews worldwide, it has run into some controversy in the United States for allegedly scamming viewers with recaps. Nonetheless, there is no doubt that fans are still excited to see how one of the series' best arcs visually unfolds, enhanced by the animating team and the background score.

It will have Tanjiro embarking on a journey to the legendary swordsmith's village in search of a replacement for his sword. There he will meet Muichiro Tokito, the Mist Hashira, and Mitsuri Kanroji, the Love Hashira, who will help him protect the village when the time comes.
Meanwhile, in season 3, Muzan will launch an attack in response to the deaths of two Upper Moons, Daki and Gyutaro. He will send a swarm of demons, and two powerful members of the Twelve Kizuki, Upper Moon 4, Hantengu, and Upper Moon 5, Gyokko, to launch a full-fledged attack on them. Tanjiro and the Hashiras will have to stop the attack and help protect the Swordsmith Village.
Demon Slayer season 3 will air on Sunday, April 9, 2023, CDT.
