Before you even start dreaming of watching Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle early, you'll need a Crunchyroll Ultra Fan or Mega Fan membership. Without that higher-tier subscription to the anime streaming service, you'll be locked out of buying tickets.

If you are an Ultra Fan or Mega Fan member, you need to login to your Crunchyroll account via this Fandango Rewards page.

I'm the Senior Entertainment Writer here at GamesRadar+, focusing on news, features, and interviews with some of the biggest names in film and TV. On-site, you'll find me marveling at Marvel and providing analysis and room temperature takes on the newest films, Star Wars and, of course, anime. Outside of GR, I love getting lost in a good 100-hour JRPG, Warzone, and kicking back on the (virtual) field with Football Manager. My work has also been featured in OPM, FourFourTwo, and Game Revolution.
