About the Game

Yokai Unbound is a cooperative horror and survival game for 1 to 4 players. Face the yokai from Japanese urban legends as you try to seal their rage before they drag you into the world of the dead.

ARE YOU READY TO FACE THE UNKNOWN?

1 to 4 Player Online Co-op
Team up with up to 3 friends in a unique cooperative experience, where everyone must work together to activate altars, break ancient seals, and weaken the supernatural legend. Teamwork is essential to survive the relentless attacks of the yokai.

Solo Campaign Mode
Only for the bravest. In solo mode, you’ll face the yokai alone, with only your courage and wits to guide you. Prepare for a solitary and unforgiving journey, where your screams will be heard only by the spirits.

CAN YOU TAME THE LEGENDS?

Each map in Yokai Unbound brings a new manifestation of the yokai and unique environments inspired by Japanese culture and folklore. Explore new dark scenarios, collect ritual items, and perform ancient rites before it’s too late.

Rituals and Exorcisms
Your goal is to weaken and seal the legend by performing sacred rituals. Race against time to find the necessary items and activate altars as the yokai grow increasingly aggressive. Only by working together can you survive.

Scaling Difficulty
As the game progresses, the yokai become faster, more dangerous, and smarter.

Multiplayer Features
Use positional voice chat to coordinate your actions and survive together. Play with friends or find new teammates as you explore the horrors of Japanese folklore.

Yokai Unbound offers an immersive and terrifying experience with intense cooperative gameplay, scalable challenges, and a chilling atmosphere based on the darkest legends of Japan.
