The game follows the plot of the animated series perfectly, leaving virtually no detail behind, so the story is already well-known to anyone up to date with it. The plot revolves around Tanjiro Kamado, a young man who is the eldest son of a family of charcoal burners who live in the mountains, during the Taisho Era (1912-1926) in Japan. The boy has no father and lives with his mother and five younger siblings, going out every day to sell charcoal in a nearby town to support his family. But one day, when he returns from doing his errands, he discovers that his entire family has been murdered, except for his sister Nezuko, who is badly injured. The one responsible for such an atrocity has been a demon, and while Tanjiro tries to reach the village for help with his dying sister at his back, Nezuko ends up turning into a demon as well due to her injuries.
