Ghostwire: Tokyo Review
Reviewed by Cam Shea on PlayStation 5. Also available on PC. I enjoyed my 20 or so hours with Ghostwire: Tokyo largely because I found its world so immersive. The attention to detail in the city itself is hugely impressive, whether it s looking to recreate the surroundings of the bestknown crossing in the world or bringing life to a dank back alley. This is an environment I loved being in, and all the more so because of the many touchstones to iconic elements of Japanese culture and mythology. If the momenttomoment gameplay in particular its onedimensional combat and uninteresting mission design weren t such a disappointment, Ghostwire: Tokyo could have truly captivated me. As it stands, the merely adequate stealth and action do nothing to add to the fantastical setting, but they don t diminish its brilliance,
