The official description for the game reads as such:
“In Tokyo Ghoul: re Call to Exist, a war for survival is being waged between Ghouls and Investigators on the streets of Japan’s largest metropolitan city. Based off the popular horror manga, Tokyo Ghoul: re Call to Exist is the first video game of the franchise to come to the West, uniting the characters from Tokyo Ghoul, Tokyo Ghoul √A, and the Tokyo Ghoul: re series in an action-packed conflict between man and ghoul with co-op and single-player battles.”
The game itself will feature a single player story, along with an online component that allows teams of four to slam their ghouls against one another in a multi-player bonanza:
“Get ready for fast-paced online play with matches divided into 4-vs-4 Ghoul vs investigator teams. Challenge your friends and perfect your abilities to see who will reign supreme in a gruesome battle for victory.”
If you’re unfamiliar with the Tokyo Ghoul series, it follows the tale of Ken Kaneki who inadvertently runs into a ghoul. As the ghoul attempts to kill him and eat his flesh, Kaneki manages to survive by the skin of his teeth by becomes a half ghoul himself in the process. This has been quite the year for the franchise, as outside of the recently released video game, the franchise also got a live action sequel movie in the form of Tokyo Ghoul S. It’s a good time to be a ghoul!
