The New Ghostwire: Tokyo Update Is Great

This week, Ghostwire: Tokyo finally reached the end of its PS5 exclusivity period and launched for Xbox Series consoles. The game also got a surprisingly big free update on all platforms called Spider’s Thread, adding new story content, a new rogue-lite game mode, plenty of quality of life tweaks, achievement updates — and new collectible capsule toys that add props for use in photo mode. It’s this last addition, barely mentioned in <a href="https://bethesda.net/en/article/3xk1RK8bI9YVe6ioTxGOQd/ghostwire-tokyo-spiders-thread-update-patch-notes" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">the official patch notes</a> as “photo mode improvements,” that has really grabbed me. You can now find little capsule toy machines littered throughout Ghostwire’s detailed city, and for 500 “Meika” (the in-game currency) you can try your hand at getting a unique toy through a random draw process. This sort of goofy collectible capsule toy side content exists in tons of other games — but where most other titles would be content to give you a 3D model you could view in a menu or on an in-game shelf, Ghostwire’s developers at Tango Gameworks went one step further. <a href="https://xander51.medium.com/the-new-ghostwire-tokyo-update-is-great-79ec4f2db311">Visit Now</a>
