How many chapters are in Ghostwire Tokyo?

If you know how many chapters there are in Ghostwire Tokyo, then you can work out how much progress you've made through the game and if you're getting close to the ending. This is particularly useful if you've picked the game up through a PlayStation Plus or Epic Games Store giveaway, and are deciding how much time you want to dedicate to it. It's also helpful to know about the point of no return that occurs in Chapter 4, since you'll be locked out of exploring Shibuya further from then until you complete the storyline. 

To make things a little easier for you, we've compiled an at-a-glance look at all six Ghostwire Tokyo chapters. We will also list any main missions that must be cleared before you can progress past certain points in the game.

Ghostwire Tokyo chapters explained

There are a total of six Ghostwire Tokyo chapters, though their individual lengths vary greatly. The first chapter is over quickly, with the second providing more content, then the third and fourth chapters being considerably longer. At the end of Chapter 4 you'll reach a point of no return, however the fifth and sixth chapters combined can be cleared in under an hour to get you back to the open world for ongoing exploration.

Naturally, the amount of time to complete each chapter will depend on how many side quests you take on and the number of collectibles you go searching for, but here's a breakdown of the Ghostwire Tokyo chapters and the main missions required to clear them:

• Chapter 1: Beginnings
• The Vanishing
• City of Shadows
  
  
• Chapter 2: Trouble
• KK
• Clearing the Fog
• A Maze of Death
• The Buried Life
• The Caves of Steel
  
  
• Chapter 3: Connection
• Pillar of Light
• Blindness
• Agony
  
  
• Chapter 4: Contortion
• Giants
• The Black Tower
  
  
• Chapter 5: Severance
• Family
• Tokyo Tower
  
  
• Chapter 6: Binding
• Mari
• Gate to the Underworld
• Farewells

Once you finish Chapter 6 and complete the main story, you'll be prompted to create a new save file that puts you back to the point of no return in Chapter 4, but with everything you unlocked from Chapters 5 and 6. This will let you clear up any side missions, collectibles, spirits etc that you have outstanding, and you can also repeat the final two chapters from this point if desired.

This is particularly useful if you're trying to obtain the Hero of Shibuya trophy for completing the main story after transferring 100% of the spirits in the city, as it means you can can continue collecting spirits around Shibuya using the bonuses you unlock for beating the game. Once you reach the total of 240,300 spirits collected, you can play Chapters 5 and 6 again to earn that award.
