Tsukuyomi: Divine Hunter - New Roguelike Deck-Builder by Kazuma Kaneko

Kazuma Kaneko, the visionary designer behind iconic series such as Shin Megami Tensei, Persona, and Devil Summoner, is set to captivate fans once again with his latest project, Tsukuyomi: The Divine Hunter. Developed by COLOPL, this eagerly anticipated roguelike deck-building game will be available on PC, iOS, and Android, merging Kaneko’s distinctive dark and mythological style with strategic, card-based combat.

Set in the futuristic landscape of Tokyo Bay, Tsukuyomi: The Divine Hunter unfolds within The Hashira, a towering high-rise transformed into a sealed battleground. The halls of this structure are now home to enigmatic gods and demons. Players join an elite national defense force, also known as Tsukuyomi, tasked with ascending to the top floor to neutralize a formidable adversary.

Fans of Kaneko’s previous works will find the setting of Tsukuyomi familiar, as it masterfully blends elements of urban decay with supernatural horror, crafting an atmosphere that is both eerie and tense. The game promises a unique fusion of mythology and cyberpunk themes that will immerse players upon its release later this year.

In Tsukuyomi: The Divine Hunter, players will engage in the thrilling challenge of building a deck of powerful abilities while navigating a dynamic dungeon. Each playthrough offers a unique experience with varying cards, dungeon layouts, and enemy encounters.

Combat is fast-paced and turn-based, requiring players to make strategic decisions with each move. Every turn allows for only one action, be it an attack or defense, making quick and precise decision-making crucial for success.

The game's dungeon exploration features branching paths and pivotal choices that significantly impact your journey. These decisions affect not only the battles you face but also the resources at your disposal. As with any true roguelike, failure comes with a steep price—losing a fight means starting over from scratch, emphasizing the importance of careful planning.

Tsukuyomi: The Divine Hunter is slated for release around June 30th, though this date may be subject to change. Interested players can pre-register by following the provided links.
