In Ghostwire: Tokyo, it's important for Akito to level up fast so that he may become more in sync with KK and master the use of new skills, ethereal weaves, and equipment. There are plenty of ways for players to earn more XP in the game quickly, particularly if they know exactly where to look as they venture through the nearly-empty streets of Tokyo. Although many of the skills, ethereal weaves, and equipment are story-locked, leveling up fast will allow players to unlock Akito's newfound abilities almost as soon as they become available.

Ghostwire: Tokyo's open-world gameplay and abilities synergize perfectly with one another. For example, players can unlock skills that resemble the web-slinging mechanics of Spider-Man which allows them to easily scale the game's vertical environment. Additionally, other skills that players can unlock and improve allow them to glide through the air, sneak around close-quarters with haste, and even reveal enemy and important item locations. As new areas of Tokyo are unlocked and the challenges become increasingly difficult for Akito and KK, knowing how to level up fast in Ghostwire: Tokyo becomes just as valuable as the abilities themselves.

As Ghostwire: Tokyo begins, it becomes immediately apparent that every activity nets Akito some varying amount of XP. Whether players defeat the weakest of enemies inspired by Japanese folklore and urban legend in Ghostwire: Tokyo or rescue more than 700 souls at once, Akito will always be able to progress toward the next level. However, throughout the entire game, players can complete certain actions that will always help Akito level up faster.

Ghostwire: Tokyo - How To Quickly Level Up Akito

Follow these steps to level up quickly in Ghostwire: Tokyo:

  • Step 1: Always complete side quests. In addition to more XP, side quests will also reward Spirits that can be released for additional XP at a phone booth.
  • Step 2: Prioritize absorbing Spirits that need affliction removed. The Spirits that need affliction removed will always have several hundred additional Spirits to absorb.
  • Step 3: Protect the Spirit cubes by defeating enemies, earning XP for saving them, and XP for releasing the Spirits at a phone booth afterward.
  • Step 4: Always fill the Katashiro up with Spirits from any source before bringing it to a phone booth.
  • Step 5: Purchase additional Katashiro from Ghostwire: Tokyo's yokai cat merchants.
  • Step 6: Invest in the Spectral Vision skill. As the Spectral Vision skill improves, its reach improves, allowing Akito to see Spirits up to 50m away once it's fully upgraded.
  • Step 7: Quick purge more challenging enemies. Quick purging rewards more XP than standard combat.
  • Step 8: In combat, finish enemies off by grabbing their cores.
  • Step 9: Complete main missions. Main missions will always reward a plethora of XP, but of course, they become tougher to complete if Akito is at a lower level beforehand.
