Summary

Ghostwire: Tokyo has a TrueGG Rating of 88.8%: the positive share among 978 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 10+ hours. That is 5.9 points above Steam's overall 82.8%, so players who really play the current version rate it higher than the headline number suggests (all time: 87.8%).

Reviews written under 2 hours make up 9% of the total, and only 56% of them are positive. Some players bounce off early, but those who get past the opening rate it higher. Steam accepts refund requests within 2 hours of play and 14 days of purchase.

In the last 180 days, reviews at 2–5h are 79% positive versus 92% at 20–50h: the more people play, the more they like it.

Negative reviews most often mention boredom, grind (more than at launch), and pacing. Positive reviews praise how fun it feels and 難易度.

Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 90.3%, similar to all languages.

Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (83.1% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.

All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-19.

03 / TRUEGG INSIGHTS

Why it is rated this way

What drives the rating

Complaints center on the game's design (Boring / repetitive, Grind, Movement & pacing, Controls, UI & camera). These rarely change with updates, so the rating likely reflects the game itself. Judge by whether it suits you. It is also a game many people bounce off early (early reviews are much less positive than those of players who stuck with it).
