What is Obakeidoro 2?

Obakeidoro 2 is an exciting asymmetric multiplayer game where players take on the roles of humans and ghosts in a thrilling game of tag, or “oni goko”. The objective is simple: during a three-minute limit, the ghosts must catch all the humans to win, whereas the humans only need one player to escape. Up to eight players can join in both local and online modes, ensuring ample opportunities for fun and competition.

Enhanced Features and New Gameplay Mechanics

Enhanced Gameplay with New Characters

The game introduces a vibrant setting inspired by Japanese folklore, featuring characters that draw inspiration from various yokai and urban legends specific to Japan. This unique backdrop not only enhances the visual appeal but also enriches the gaming experience.

New Actions for Both Teams

Both humans and ghosts have received new actions to explore:

- Human Action: Call Out

When a teammate responds to the “Call Out,” cooperative actions such as “Single Toss,” “Double Jump,” and “Bond Fusion” can occur, adding a strategic layer to gameplay.

- Ghost Action: Super Catch

Ghosts can now grow in size, unleashing a Super Catch ability to capture multiple humans at once, elevating the challenge for players trying to escape.

Versatile Play Modes

Players can enjoy Obakeidoro 2 in various ways:

Online Modes

1. Internet Tag: Engage in thrilling matches online with other players. You can choose between “Free Matches” for random pairings or create your own room in “Room Matches.” Notably, two players can even compete online using a single Nintendo Switch 2 console.

Offline Modes

2. Offline Tag: For those looking to gather physically, the game offers modes for solo or group play. Options include “Solo Tag” and “Everyone Tag,” where players can convene with their devices. Additionally, “One Switch Tag” allows up to four players to enjoy the chaos together on one device.

Share the Fun with “Osusowake Tsushin”

One of the standout features of Obakeidoro 2 is its use of Nintendo Switch 2's “Osusowake Tsushin” (Share Play) capabilities. This innovative function allows players to share the game with friends who do not own it, enabling collaborative gaming regardless of distance.
