So, it’s only fitting that this month, Tango’s spooky action adventure gets its biggest content update yet! Since launch, players have taken incredible screenshots with Ghostwire: Tokyo’s Photo Mode. We’ve loved seeing your skills, passion, and creativity; and in this update, we want to give you even more tools to capture great pictures in-game.

Read on for more details! Obon Commemoration – New Emote and Costume Ghostwire: Tokyo is a game about spirits (vanished presences): rescuing them from evil, honoring them, and acknowledging and accepting their passing. Obon is a time to commemorate one's ancestors, whose spirits are believed to temporarily return to this world during this time of year. Obon traditions vary throughout Japan, but the most common are holding summer festivals in school yards or parks, with everyone dancing the Bon Odori together to welcome the spirits of their ancestors. In some areas, an event called “Toro-nagashi” is also held, in which lanterns are floated down a river or into the sea to mourn the souls of the departed. Areas inspired by the event are featured in the game, and the Tokyo Bon dance is available as an emote in Photo Mode. On Wednesday, August 3 at 11 AM ET / 3 PM UTC (August 4, 12 AM JST), an all-new festive Obon costume and new Photo Mode emote will automatically unlock for all players: Jinbei Costume – A casual Kimono-style jacket and short pants, this outfit is perfect whether you’re enjoying a summer festival, or sitting on the porch eating watermelon.

In this update, you can make wishes of your own with the Tanabata Wishes emote, available to all players! This update also includes some additional game adjustments and bug fixes. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41898143/770ff80032ab2802a59dbd491c8850054ae0a35c.jpg Tanabata Tanabata is the story of two star-crossed lovers: Princess Orihime, daughter of the God of the Sky; and Hikoboshi, a simple cattle farmer, separated by the Heavenly River, but fated to meet for one night a year: the 7th day of the 7th month. The origins of this story lie in the real twin stars Vega and Altair, and the “Heavenly River” that separates them is our own Milky Way galaxy. With the Tanabata Wishes emote, Akito and KK look to the stars with a bamboo tree and sasakazari (lit. “hanging decorations”) next to them. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41898143/5c5a84918afdab07cb4c7672247ac5a48f261469.jpg Changes and Improvements Added new “Film Grain” and “Color-Fringe” options under video settings Bug Fixes All Platforms Adjusted the behavior of some emotes Adjusted the effects of certain emotes when using them on uneven terrain Adjusted lighting during emotes Made adjustments to rotating Akito on the Inventory screen Adjusted lighting for the “Inugami Mummy” collectiblePC Fixes Improved overall performance Ghostwire: Tokyo Update Notes – May 2, 2022May 2, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsThis week, Japan celebrates Golden Week, one of its most popular holiday seasons.
