Ikumi Nakamura’s Unseen Inc. is releasing its new game, Kemuri, in 2027.
The game was announced during the June 2026 PlayStation State of Play showcase, where Ikumi Nakamura briefly introduced the game.
The short gameplay trailer showcased yokai hunters exploring a large cityscape and defeating yokai demons with flashy action combat. It has an immense sense of style on display – with hunters flying through the air and even skating up skyscrapers – as well as a bright colour palette and arresting visual style.
Set in Kemuri City, players control a yokai hunter who uses the Fox Window to reveal what others cannot see, and wears the powers of yokai as Possession Apparel. Everything your character is capable of changes with new apparel.
“Yokai hunters from across the globe gather in this city,” the game’s official description reads. “Each carrying their own culture, past, and personal loss, they arrive in Kemuri City for their own reasons. Perhaps… just like you, standing on the edge of this world now.
“As a yokai hunter, players search for yokai, form contracts with them, and grow stronger by wielding their powers. There is no single way to fight. Some hunters charge into close combat, others strike from a distance, while some wield supernatural powers through prayers and talismans. Each hunter steps into the city’s paranormal anomalies in their own way.”
