This story is part of our Summer Gaming Marathon series. While Monster Hunter Wilds might not be getting released until next year, Capcom still has another awesome-looking game releasing very soon.
Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess impressed me with its Summer Game Fest 2024 trailer, and after going hands-on with the game, I’m even more in love. It’s a super-weird action strategy game where players free mountain villages of the “Defilement” that has overtaken them by strategically placing helpful villages and fighting the enemies, called “Seethe,” head-on.
Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess - Gameplay Trailer"Kagura" | Xbox Partner Preview Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is split into levels where the goal is to defend the maiden as she makes her way from the Torii gate at one end of the level to another. Interestingly, Capcom used miniatures to create these levels and scanned those into the game.
Related You won’t want to do that too early on, though, as hordes of Seethe come through defiled Torii gates at night. To prepare for this, players can strategically place villagers around the village, like towers in a tower defense game, to help fend off the Seethe. Players can also fight them head-on with a variety of combo attacks that call back to Capcom’s action game roots.
It’s a mix of gameplay that feels wholly unique to this adventure, and it rocks. It was extremely satisfying when I knew I had positioned villagers properly and a night of defending went swimmingly; it was also hectic when things started to go wrong, and I had to tactically retreat in order to ensure that no Seethe reached the Maiden. As more villager roles are unlocked and combos are learned over the course of the game, I only see Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess getting even better.
