What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“WANTED: Yokai Uprising is an academic non-for-profit portfolio project, developed to demonstrate the skills of its team, and the hard work that is being done through its development. It's in Early Access because we want to gain feedback from the community and improve the player’s experience.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We anticipate that the game will stay in Early Access for about 6 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We are considering adding additional multiplayer content, such as cooperative and competitive game modes, to enhance players' replayability and social experience.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is currently in its alpha stage, featuring five distinct levels with foundational mechanics, complete environments, and a challenging boss arena. An online subsystem has also been implemented, and while occasional bugs may arise, we are dedicated to resolving any issues.

In the current version, players can:

  • Explore and complete various quests, such as defusing bombs at a train station and battling a final boss.
  • Engage in combat against five different enemy types.
  • Play online with a friend in cooperative mode.

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price will be the same because WANTED: Yokai Uprising is a free game. However this does not affect the quality of the project, to demonstrate the quality of our team we all did through almost 9 months of development, so it will be free since its Early Access and Official Release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Through Twitter and Steam community forums we will collect the feedback that players would share, and so fix them before it’s Official Release.”

About This Game

Wanted: Yokai Uprising is a cooperative first-person shooter. Take down waves of yokai solo or with a partner. Choose between two mercenaries with unique play styles to complete the mission assigned to you and defeat the city's most wanted boss.

Advance through a cooperative campaign designed for two players, where teamwork is essential to fulfill client orders. However, you also have the option to be a solo player and explore the city's alleys on your own, challenging the dangers that await you.

Shinsekai, once bustling with life, has fallen under the dominion of a Yokai organization.

Now, the streets are filled with creatures and deadly traps. Dive in and save the citizens from corruption.

Take control of Blair and Yen, two mercenaries whose destinies intertwine in the fight against the Yokai in Shinsekai. With different combat styles, these characters will guide you through the adventure and challenges.

Blair is a former soldier who carries an energy grenade launcher at long distances with an alternate firing mode using electric ammunition. Yen is a gambling yakuza who never parts ways with his modified weapon: a shotgun barrel and a submachine gun to shred any living being within his close range.

Battle against a total of 5 different enemies with unique abilities that will challenge your skills and strategies. From the Tengu to the Komainu, each encounter presents a different strategy that tests your courage and ability. Can you defeat the final boss?
