Synthesized from 2 Yomimono stories · updated Jul 20

KAZUMA KANEKO'S TSUKUYOMI is a deck-building roguelike set in a modern dark fantasy world. Players climb a demon-infested tower called The Hashira in Tokyo Bay, using a three-card hand to battle Shinma, which are gods and demons. Five playable characters with distinct battle styles are available. The game supports English and Japanese audio and text in English, Japanese, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, and Korean.

The Steam version launched on July 24, 2026, with a standard edition priced at 3,960 yen and a Special Digital Deluxe Edition including the base game and two DLC packs for 5,960 yen. The game was previously released for Nintendo Switch on April 23, 2026. On the same day as the Steam launch, DLC Vol. 2, Painter K's Divine Brush: Truth Manifestation Set - Part 2, released for both Switch and Steam, adding five Creation Cards: Arianrod, Raphael, Banshee, Apollo, and Satan.

The original free-to-play mobile and PC game, TSUKUYOMI - The Divine Hunters, ended service on April 22, 2026. That version used generative AI for card art; the Switch and Steam versions do not use AI for new card creation.
