Boy with mysterious watch battles ghosts in game shipping July 11
Japanese game developer Level 5 began streaming a commercial on Wednesday for its upcoming Nintendo 3DS game Yōkai Watch. The game will ship in Japan on July 11.
The game's story begins one hot summer day when a boy named Keita discovers an old capsule toy vending machine in the forest. Keita receives a mysterious watch and meets a ghost butler named Whisper. Whisper tells Keita that the watch allows him to see supernatural creatures — both good and evil — that he could not see before in everyday life. With Whisper and his other companion Jibanya, Keita explores his town for other ghosts to battle.
Level 5 has announced plans for anime and manga adaptations of the franchise as well.
