Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is an action-strategy game developed and published by Capcom. The game was released for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on July 19, 2024.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is an action-strategy game played from a third-person perspective, and features elements from real-time strategy and tower defense games. In the game, the player assumes control of Soh, who is tasked to protect a divine maiden named Yoshiro who must “purge and cleanse” villages of “defilement” and return the legendary Mt. Kafuku to peace.

Gameplay is divided into two different parts. Daytime is the preparatory phase in which Soh must explore the village and rescue villagers, as well as setting up various contraptions. At night, evil spirits named the “Seethe” will invade the village from Torii gates, and the player must ally with the rescued villagers to defend Yoshiro from hostile attacks until sunrise. Players can strategically place villagers in tactical positions, and assign them with different roles. For instance, a woodcutter is a powerful melee attacker, while an archer can provide ranged support. Players can also further equip Soh and the villagers with one of twelve masks that also grant them divine powers. The position and the roles of the villagers can also be changed during combat. If Soh becomes severely injured in the game, they will enter “Spirit mode”, allowing them to continue issuing commands to other villagers while disembodied.
