Level 5 unveiled during the Level 5 Vision 2026 II Dream livestream on Thursday its new "ghost craft" role-playing game HOLY HORROR MANSION, and it announces that the game will launch in 2027 for Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam. The video and footage from the stream preview gameplay, characters, and story:
The company will announce more at a cross-media presentation.
The story follows Ten Lordland (О̄ya in Japanese), who lives in a mansion on top of an apartment complex. After finding a weird camera within a locked room, his nose hair starts glowing, and a ghost pops out of his nose. With the powers of different ghosts, Ten aims to stop the evil De Ville Corp, its Darkarymen, and its weird monster-items. Using Cameron, the ghost camera, players can find hidden ghosts.
Level 5 is partnering with entertainment companies for the game, which is themed around "family." The company revealed it as a new concept for its Yōkai Watch franchise and called it its "largest cross-media project to date." The RPG features ghostly mechanics that are based on real-life performers.
A previous video had revealed three different ghosts and their movement inspirations. The green ghost is inspired by real-life performer SANTA, who is a member of WARPs UP. When the green ghost enters anything, the object comes to life. The blue ghost's movement is based on Japanese comedian and singer-songwriter Pikotarō. The blue ghost can combine objects such as apples and pens to create chimeras. The pink ghost's movement is based on Japanese dance team avantgardey, who has previously appeared on the America's Got Talent show. The pink ghost is like an architect who can create worlds.
Level 5 announced the Yōkai Watch franchise in 2011 with a game, manga, and anime already planned. The franchise's first game for the Nintendo 3DS debuted in Japan in July 2013, and the original anime premiered in January 2014.
Yōkai Watch 2: Haunted Domain, a new updated version of the Yōkai Watch 2 Nintendo 3DS game, is launching for Nintendo Switch, PS5, and PC via Steam.
