Yokai game, Kemuri, revealed for 2027

Today, Unseen shared new footage and details pertaining to their supernatural game, Kemuri.

Described as being a yokai-possession action game, Kemuri is a new IP. Set in Kemuri City, where life and death coexist, players will confront death and the supernatural. They’ll explore this in a vertical city, with rooftops, back alleys and more.

At the core, though, players are a yokai hunter:

Yokai hunters from across the globe gather in this city. Each carrying their own culture, past, and personal loss, they arrive in Kemuri City for their own reasons. Perhaps… just like you, standing on the edge of this world now.

As a yokai hunter, players search for yokai, form contracts with them, and grow stronger by wielding their powers. There is no single way to fight. Some hunters charge into close combat, others strike from a distance, while some wield supernatural powers through prayers and talismans. Each hunter steps into the city’s paranormal anomalies in their own way.

A lot of this will be handled through a Foxwindow — a hand gesture that allows the main character to see into other dimensions, so to speak.

Kemuri will drop next year.
