Ghostwire: Tokyo is a beautiful and eerie jaunt through the streets of Japan, coming face to face with lore and legend while fighting for your own quest and purpose. With seamless gameplay and fighting mechanics, 40 hours of exploration will seem like no time has gone by and it will leave you wanting more time running the glistening streets of Shibuya.
Ghostwire: Tokyo is a brilliant experiment in the clash of style and substance. Tokyo exists as an open world reminiscent of older games whose design may now feel ancient. Yet Tango Gameworks infuses nearly every aspect of the journey with a new, weird twist that no developer has thought to do before. Combat is striking and frenzied, even if it never reaches true complexity. And while the side content and the story may falter in their variety, enough praise cannot be heaped on the handling of Japanese folklore and the devotion towards cultural expression. Ghostwire: Tokyo may not be for everyone but I guarantee there is something in it for every single player to love.

One of the best new ip story-driven horror games i have palyed in recent years. Also, the setting, if you love the Japanese culture, will leave you speechless with the attention to detail. Amazing graphics overall, great story and characters, the contorls could be better but thats not a gamechanger. I loved it.

Ghostwire: Tokyo mixes unique ideas with formulaic design, and though the latter does affect the experience, it is ultimately still a solid, enjoyable game that's well worth experiencing.
When Ghostwire: Tokyo capitalises on its spooky surroundings by whisking you off into strange dimensions, fighting evil with powers you shoot from your hands, it’s excellent. The haunted, deserted Shibuya is a thrill to explore, and helping spirits with their final requests provides some engaging mini-adventures. Where it fumbles slightly is in the delivery of its open world, which regularly feels a bit old school as you chip away at the fog of the map, cleansing fast travel points as you go and repeating some filler tasks. Still, with a curious mystery laid out before you and a creepy atmosphere that will keep you on your toes, Ghostwire: Tokyo provides plenty of spooks and intriguing diversions around every corner that are just begging for your attention.
Ghostwire Tokyo has some weaknesses, but with its fun to play combat and the beautiful presentation of Shibuya and its “visitors”, it will definitely pique your interest.
Ghostwire: Tokyo is now representative of games that have been severely damaged by an open world.
Rarely has such a big budget game been based on such a thin gameplay premise, with this bafflingly dull first person action adventure that begins to run out of steam by the end of the tutorial level.
As a fan of tokyo and japanese folklore, this game is a must play. I can't put in words how much I love this game. Please give it a try.

GhostWire: Tokyo is a fine game that suffers from a few issues that hold it back from potential greatness. Visually, the game is stunning with its graphics and visual style. I also love the idea of using Japanese folklore and horror in a first person shooter, and using magic rather than guns. Luckily, the shooting mechanics are solid. The sound design also helps this game come to life. Now, the issues are as follows. The game feels like it had open world elements tacked on at the last moment, as the game feels more lineal, and these side activities are nothing more than mundane busy work, or to pad the game. The story is hit or miss at times. It can be either interesting at times, or very dull. The protagonist is also very generic, and doesn't really have any personality. Performance is very spotty. Some times, it runs smoothly. Other times, it chugs like a locomotive. I'd be harsher to this game if I paid, but it was luckily free on PS Plus, so I can't rank it lower than a 7. A good recommendation if you like FPS titles, but I'd only recommend it when its on sale.

الجو او الاتموسفير باللعبة شي رهيب و رائع , خلق وتصوير طوكيو سوداء و مهجوره كان متقن و مرعب و يبقيك على وتيره الانتباه و الاستكشاف المستمر بمهماته الجانبية
القيمبلاي رائع و مرضي نفسياً في اسلوب القتال لكن كان يمكن استغلال امكانيته لجعله ممتاز اكثر
كما هو العالم في جعل الانشطة اكثر عمقاً كون ان القصة كانت خفيفه في رتم التقديم و تصاعديتها خلفت فرغات كثيره

Here’s the thing: we are acutely aware, and are growing wary, of games that find creative ways to have empty, ghostly worlds. The reason for this approach is that it’s much more work, much more costly to create a living, breathing world in a game. Due to greed, the empty-ghostly world is now a cliche that gamers like myself are incredibly bored with. Other developers also throw in “very challenging combat” as a barrier to progress, requiring even less put into a game. Meanwhile, we are now asked to pay $70. With each empty world or “Soul’s like” game (to be clear Ghostwire: Tokyo is not the later, only the former) we are less likely to hand over the cash. Eventually we will lose interest in gaming entirely.

Even with the controls adjusted it feels stiff and not flowing. Im getting pretty bored after an hour of playtime. It's not really much **** it's more a walk in tokyo. There are 5 different mobs and the gameplay is very repetivie and boring. Collectables are bugged on the map and hard to find. Cause who tought let's make everything the same f color was a good idea. A tiny bit of sidequest the rest is a boring taks of colleting money to buy redicilouse overprized trash for the trophy you will never use. 130.000 for a emote good luck with that.
