GhostWire Tokyo: Abilities Skill Tree Guide

GhostWire Tokyo takes players to a corrupted version of Tokyo, where living beings have disappeared, and the world has been taken over by spirits from Japanese folklore.

Skill trees play a significant role as players progress through the story of GhostWire Tokyo. There are a total of 16 skill branches across three different skill trees in the game.

Developed by Tango GameWorks, the studio headed by Shinji Mikami, GhostWire Tokyo is set to be released on the PS5 and PCs this Friday.

GhostWire Tokyo’s physiological horror interpretation is different from anything else previously available. It leans more towards magical first-person action combat over traditional horror.
