Dress as a Feudal Lord or Princess doll in today's update—KK even joins you in the ""Lord and Lady"" emote!

Ghostwire: Tokyo – Photo Mode Update
October is the spookiest month of the year, and in Japan it’s also known as “kan-na-zuki” – the month of no gods. Legend says it got that name because during this month, the gods traveled to a location far from Tokyo for a meeting. So, it’s only fitting that this month, Tango’s spooky action adventure gets its biggest content update yet!

Since launch, players have taken incredible screenshots with Ghostwire: Tokyo’s Photo Mode. We’ve loved seeing your skills, passion, and creativity; and in this update, we want to give you even more tools to capture great pictures in-game.

New Photo Mode Features


We’ve added a suite of new features and options to Photo Mode, including the ability to pause enemies, move Akito in Selfie Mode, and even change the time of day for screenshots! Plus, we’ve included some new camera controls and effect features for better color control over your shots.

The Photo Mode interface has been completely redesigned: features are now within tabs for ease of use, and we’ve added a “Quick Photo Mode” keybind to better take shots on the fly. Below, we’ll explain each item under the new tabs, and denote the new features.

Quick Photo Mode Button


  • PC: Default “P”
  • PS5 DualSense Wireless Controller: Press Right on the D-Pad


View Larger


New Camera Filters


Three new camera filters have been added: “Blue Monday,” “Red Moon,” and “Cinema Projector .”

Photogenic New Cosmetics


With these new Photo Mode features, the world is your canvas—and to further get you into the art-making mood, on Wednesday, October 19 at 11 AM ET / 3 PM UTC (Thursday, October 20 at 12 AM JST), an all-new emote and costume reminiscent of a certain photographer will unlock for all players:
  • The Perfect Shot Emote: Always have your camera ready. This one looks a little familiar…
  • Artist's Suit Costume: Don’t be afraid of looking stylish in this purple suit..

Intel XeSS


For the PC version, this update includes support for Intel’s XeSS AI-enhanced upscaling that enables enhanced performance with high-definition visuals.

Updated to FSR2.1


We’ve updated the FSR version to FSR2.1. (Only on PC.)

We are aware that some visual graphics-related bugs may occur due to this update to FSR2.1, and we intend to fix those issues in a future patch.

Ghostwire: Tokyo Tsukimi Update 2022
The autumn moon is full in the sky, and today’s Ghostwire: Tokyo update is filled with new cosmetic content, bug fixes, and support for AMD FSR 2.0!

Tsukimi – A Delicious New Emote and Colorful Costume



Tsukimi is a celebration held in early autumn to gather and view the beauty of the harvest moon. (No need to send lunar analysis data to Ed.)

It’s also a great time to eat snacks like Tsukimi dango and mochi! (Be sure to follow us on social media to find out the Tango Gameworks team’s favorite snacks throughout this week!)
