About This Game

Yōkai Hunter is a bullet-heaven survival roguelite set in a dusk-cursed Japan — pick a hunter, evolve their arsenal, and hold the line as the yōkai horde grows denser, faster, and hungrier with every passing minute.

――――――――――

A Weapon for Every Hunter

Every hunter starts with a signature weapon and a completely different way of playing — pair it with the right charm mid-run and watch it transform into a devastating evolved form, from ground-shaking area attacks to beams of pure spirit energy.

――――――――――

The Horde Never Stops Growing

Waves scale endlessly — clear one line of yōkai and three more take its place. Out-level them, out-build them, or get buried under the swarm.

――――――――――

Command an Army of Yōkai

Some hunters don't fight alone — bind demons to your will and let an ever-growing pack of summoned yōkai do the killing for you.

――――――――――

Corruption Has a Price — and a Reward

Slay the Corruption festering in each map's enclave to unlock a permanent, run-altering perk tree back at the shrine. Power always costs something.

Some doors, once opened, do not close.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

This game uses generative AI as part of its art and localization pipeline. Specifically:

- Character portrait artwork: The hunters' painted bust portraits (shown on the character-select screen, and reused in store page capsule art and the trailer) were generated using a local Stable Diffusion XL model with a custom LoRA, then composited by hand into final scenes.

- Localization: UI text translations for French, German, Spanish (Spain), Spanish (Latin America), Portuguese (Brazil), Italian, Polish, and Turkish were produced with AI assistance and reviewed before shipping.

All AI-assisted content was reviewed by the development team before inclusion. No content is generated live or in response to player input during gameplay — all AI-assisted assets are fixed at build time.
