Another wave of new content has arrived in Roblox's Anime Last Stand with its latest update, themed around the popular anime series Kaiju No. 8. As expected, the update includes several new units inspired by the anime, with the most iconic being the Monster No. 8 unit.
This unit is modeled directly after Kafka Hibino's kaiju form in the anime, and besides looking pretty impressive, it boasts some of the best stats available, even becoming the current meta for Infinite mode. In this guide, we'll walk you through exactly how to obtain the Monster No. 8 unit and detail its stats in Anime Last Stand.
How To Unlock The Monster No. 8 Unit In ALS
The Monster No. 8 unit is an evolution of a base unit called the Cleanup Worker, so you'll first need to get your hands on that unit via Banner 1 or Banner 2. Once you have it, you'll need a unique item called the Monster No. 9 Head, which can be obtained from the Event Shop for 2000 Dragon Scales or crafted with 130 Monster Essence.
With both items in hand, you can now unlock the Monster No. 8 unit by evolving the Cleanup Worker unit. As you'll see, this is quite worth the grind. Not only does this unit boast impressive stats, but its stun passive makes it an excellent choice for any player.
