And more become repetitive
Lackluster story
Underwhelming upgrades
Story rushes to the finale very quickly after a certain point

Solid but fairly shallow combat that doesn't evolve much after it is introduced
Side characters aren't given enough time to develop and the villain is forgettable

Unique concept, Interesting combat mechanics, Great use of the PS5 controller's features
Side content, while enjoyable, seems arbitrary on normal difficulty, Story is over a bit too quickly

Limited exploration, Progression feels detached, Unsatisfying stealth, Bland side-quests
Within the first two chapters, Ghostwire: Tokyo presents an exciting vision of Shibuya with memorable yōkai and an impressive attention to detail. But so far, this open-world is weighed down by limited exploration, unimaginative progression, and subpar si...

Ghostwire Tokyo was meant to be another must-buy killler exclusive for the PS5.But the developers have fallen short on this one.And instead what we get is a competent fighting game, with great visuals but one that doesn't reach the lofty heights of fellow...

The main story soon falls into repetition, and its side content is bloated with busywork, but exploring and fighting your way through Tango's eerie, detailed rendition of Shibuya is where Ghostwire: Tokyo shines...

Abstract: There are an eye-popping amount of games coming out in 2021, and it can be a little hard to sort through all of them. From fun co-op adventures like It Takes Two to blockbuster action titles like Gotham Knights, this is a hard year in gaming to top in ter...
Abstract: In case you missed it, the PlayStation 5 reveal event held earlier today did way more than show us what Sony's next-gen console looked like - it also bombarded fans with tons and tons of game reveals and announcements. Accordingly, it can be somewhat diff...
