GranKuwagamon is of the most unusual and intimidating Digimon in Digimon Survive and first starts showing up towards the end of the game. It's one of several Mega Digimon to do so at this point, with many players seeking the Insectoid Digimon out for a few different reasons. The first is to befriend one, but there's another big incentive for tracking down a GranKuwagamon in Digimon Survive.
Players hoping to Digivolve their Ultimate Digimon into their Mega forms will need to get their hands on a special evolution item known as an Ultimate Enlightenment Slab. Players will get a few of these as part of the main story, but the most reliable way to obtain them in volume is through Digimon negotiations. GranKuwagamon is one of several Digimon who holds the rare slab, making it a great Digimon to run into in battle.
How to Befriend GranKuwagamon in Digimon Survive
As is the case with a lot of the other Mega Digimon in Digimon Survive, it's not always possible to completely fill the bar above GranKuwagamon's head during a conversation. This is because players will only be able to fill one segment at best when responding to a particular action, potentially making any mistakes a lot more costly. With this in mind, players should pay close attention to the answers they're selecting when trying to befriend the Digimon.
GranKuwagamon is a Monster Digimon and thus shares the same set of questions and statements as the Spider Digimon Dokugumon. Its best responses aren't all the same, however, so players will need to approach the negotiation a little differently. It's also a lot more volatile, so players should look to defuse the situation where possible. For those who are really struggling, a list of the best GranKuwagamon responses can be found in the table below.
Action | Best Response |
|---|---|
(The monster has taken a threatening stance.) | [Take a step back.] |
Me... eat you... okay? | Try it, if you dare. |
(The monster looks away, as if bored.) | [Lure him with food.] |
(The monster seems perplexed by the sight of a human.) | Taunt him. (+1) [Smile and wave.] (+1) |
(The monster thrashes about on the spot.) | [Just wait.] |
(The monster seems to be pleading hungrily.) | [Give him fruit.] |
Human... no good! | Sorry to bother you. |
Where to Find GranKuwagamon in Digimon Survive
GranKuwagamon first starts to show up in Free Battles once players reach Part 11. When it does so, it often appears alongside Monzaemon, providing players with a great opportunity to farm both Perfect and Ultimate Enlightenment Slabs from a single battle. This can be particularly useful for those who still have a lot of Digimon left to Digivolve, so players should keep their eyes peeled.
Digimon Survive is available on PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Switch, and PC.
