Ghostwire Tokyo is an upcoming first-person supernatural action-adventure game from the developer studio, Tango Gameworks & famous publisher, Bethesda Softworks. The game is coming out as a timed console exclusive for the PlayStation 5 and also on Microsoft Windows.
A Quick Overview of Ghostwire Tokyo
The game takes place in a fictional version of Tokyo. Likewise, the environment and landscape are full of modern cityscapes, Japanese shrines, massive crossings, neon light shops, etc. The fictional Tokyo in the game is overrun by ghosts and ghoulish beings. Players have to use their supernatural abilities to face off against them & uncover the truth.
Players have three types of ethereal abilities including the power of wind, water, and fire. Likewise, there are three types of enemies:
- Agile spirits are the ones in the form of headless high school students and they hound players in groups, using speed and also acrobatics to surprise attack players.
- Dolls are the enemies inspired by the traditional “teru teru bozu” weather charms that fly in the air as if floating on the air, and attack players by shooting projectile fire from a distance.
- Faceless ghosts are the ones roaming in rainy environments in funeral attire. Additionally, they can deflect attacks with their umbrella as they approach to strike closely at the melee range.
What is unique about Ghostwire Tokyo?
One of the most unique aspects of the upcoming game is that it is a first-person game but not a shooter. Players control a mage-type hero who combats horrifying urban legends and supernatural creatures with a variety of ethereal abilities instead of normal generic guns. Narrative wise, the game is already a refreshingly original and wholly bizarre story. Likewise, the plot involves urban legends coming to life and players having to battle horrors using spell-casting.
Coming to the main topic of the article, many anticipating fans of the game are wondering when a beta release for the game will be available.
