Ghostwire: Tokyo - Namihara Shrine Tanuki Location

Ghostwire: Tokyo boasts a pretty graphically impressive look at Tokyo, and players can find all sorts of things hidden in its nooks and crannies. One of these collectible hunts will come to the player in the form of a Tanuki side quest near the beginning of the game.

Ghostwire: Tokyo players eventually will find the side quest «Tanuki Hunt,» which is given to them by a bossy Tanuki looking for his clan who have all separated and hidden themselves throughout Tokyo.

Fortunately for the player, their trickery only gets them so far, as they are given away by their tail which protrudes out the backside of whatever object it is that they are mimicking.

The player will need to clear out the shrine, of course, and then they should notice an Offering Box located right beside them to their left. If the player offers the max amount and asks for Tanuki locations, the Offering Box will reveal the location of the Tanuki on the map, which should be marked
