Tokyo in video games
From the temples of old Edo to the Shibuya scramble and Tokyo Tower, the capital is recreated street by street, sometimes emptied of people altogether. Pixel Pilgrimage has mapped 23 real places in and around Tokyo from 6 games: Persona 5 Royal, Yakuza 0, Ghostwire: Tokyo, Rise of the Ronin, Forza Horizon 6 and Gran Turismo 7.
