Kazuma Kaneko, the acclaimed designer known for his work on Shin Megami Tensei, Persona, and Devil Summoner, is making a grand return with a new project titled Tsukuyomi: The Divine Hunter. Developed by COLOPL, this roguelike deck-building game is set to launch on PC, iOS, and Android platforms. The game seamlessly blends Kaneko's signature dark, mythological style with strategic card-based combat, offering players an immersive experience.
Tsukuyomi: The Divine Hunter unfolds in a futuristic Tokyo Bay within The Hashira, a towering high-rise transformed into a sealed battleground. This eerie structure is now home to gods and demons, and you, as part of an elite national defense force named Tsukuyomi, must navigate its floors to reach the top and confront a formidable foe. The game's setting echoes Kaneko's past works, masterfully combining elements of urban decay and supernatural horror to create a tense and atmospheric experience that fuses mythology with cyberpunk themes.
As a roguelike card game, Tsukuyomi: The Divine Hunter challenges players to construct a deck of powerful abilities while exploring an ever-changing dungeon. Each run is unique, offering different cards, layouts, and enemy encounters, ensuring a fresh experience every time. Combat is fast-paced and turn-based, requiring you to make critical decisions swiftly, as each turn allows only one action, be it an attack or defense move.
Dungeon exploration includes branching paths and pivotal choices that significantly impact your journey. Every decision you make can alter battles and available resources, adding depth to the gameplay. True to the roguelike genre, failure means starting over from scratch, making strategic planning essential.
