Kazuma Kaneko, the visionary behind iconic series like Shin Megami Tensei, Persona, and Devil Summoner, is back with an exciting new venture titled Tsukuyomi: The Divine Hunter. Developed by COLOPL, this roguelike deck-building game is set to launch on PC, iOS, and Android, bringing Kaneko's distinctive dark, mythological style to a strategic card-based gameplay experience.
Set in a futuristic Tokyo Bay, Tsukuyomi: The Divine Hunter unfolds within The Hashira, a towering high-rise transformed into a sealed-off battleground. This eerie environment is now home to gods and demons, with an elite national defense force called Tsukuyomi tasked with reaching the top floor to neutralize a formidable target. Fans of Kaneko's previous works will appreciate the game's setting, which masterfully intertwines urban decay with supernatural horror, creating a tense and atmospheric experience that showcases the fusion of mythology and cyberpunk aesthetics.
As a roguelike card game, Tsukuyomi challenges players to construct a deck of potent abilities while navigating a dynamic dungeon. Each playthrough offers unique cards, layouts, and enemy encounters, ensuring no two runs are the same. Combat is fast-paced and turn-based, demanding quick and strategic decision-making as players can only execute one action per turn, whether it's an attack or a defense move.
Exploration in Tsukuyomi features branching paths and significant choices that influence your journey, battles, and available resources. True to the roguelike genre, failure is harsh—losing a fight means starting over from scratch, making careful planning essential.
Tsukuyomi: The Divine Hunter is slated for release around June 30th, though this date may be subject to change. Stay tuned and secure your spot by pre-registering through the links provided below.
