This week, Japan celebrates Golden Week, one of its most popular holiday seasons. We’re also celebrating as the team at Tango Gameworks has launched an all-new update for Ghostwire: Tokyo!
This update features new gameplay and quality of life improvements; numerous bug fixes; and even a festive new cosmetic item and emotes to use in Photo Mode! Read on for the full details.

Update Highlights

• Performance Improvements: This update addresses some performance issues for PS5 and PC.
  
• Silence, Tengu: There’ve been some noise complaints about the Tengu, so Ed has developed some noise-cancelling headphones for Akito and KK. (Tengu volume can now be adjusted.)
  
• Children’s Day Cosmetic and Emotes: Two new emotes and a new headwear piece inspired by Golden Week.
  

Children’s Day

Held annually on May 5 in Japan, Children’s Day is one of four national holidays observed during Golden Week, to celebrate the health and happiness of children—typically by decorating with fish-shaped kites and wearing paper samurai helmets! Now you can get in on the festivities in Ghostwire: Tokyo:

• Koinobori Emote – Akito displays koi-shaped streamers
  
• "They Grow Up So Fast" Emote – Akito proudly dons a folded paper “Kabuto” samurai helmet
