Garena Free Fire has a reputation for collaborating with big names in other fields. Earlier this year, the game shook hands with the popular MMORPG “Ragnarok,” and the crime drama series “Money Heist”. And to conclude the hectic 2020, Garena Thailand announced a Free Fire x Demon Slayer: Mugen Train collaboration event on its Facebook page. This information is currently available on the Thai server only. It is unclear whether this event will go live on other servers.
Demon Slayer: Mugen Train
This is an arc in the original Demon Slayer shounen manga Japan. The story follows the story of Tanjiro Kamado, a boy in the Taisho era (1921-1926). His fate crosses with the Demon Slayer Corps, an army of warriors wielding a samurai weapon known as Nichirin to slay demons. Demon Slayer: Mugen Train is the first movie of the franchise. It continues the story where the 1st season anime adaptation left off.

If sources are correct, the collab will introduce the demon slayers' sword, Nichirin, as a katana skin in the game. Perhaps the traditional haori and kimono in the movie will also appear as a bundle in Garena Free Fire.
Unofficial rumors also say that 2 weapon skins and a character pack in the Demon Slayer theme will be available. The weapons skins are for the M79 and P90 with a flaming pattern, following the Breathe of Flames used by Rengoku. The skin bundles also resemble the style of Demon Slayer Corps' Flame Pillar.
The partnership is likely to promote anime in Thailand. Garena also held several events where they sold merchandise themed around Free Fire and Demon Slayer. Fans have been dying to know if this will be available for other servers as well. As of now, Garena has not made any further statements regarding the new event.
