But as I got access to new abilities that can be unlocked by recovering special scrolls hidden in the stages, I started to see how powerful Aragami really is. I struggled in the beginning to be able to finish levels both not being detected or dispatching all foes.
The feeling of progression in the game is something unique. If you can’t decide which one suits you best, whatever your choice, you can always repeat a level with a different tactic! That’s what I’ve been doing to experience the best of this game and I strongly recommend you try both approaches – the silent one and the killer one. You can choose between playing as the shadow of death, eliminating all treats by stealth kills with your sword or using the power of shadows, or you can play as a ghost, traversing stages without being noticed. To succeed in this adventure, you must play smart: use the environment at your disposal to dispatch or avoid enemies while you advance in each stage. Your enemies have light weapons that can kill you with a single blow. Aragami: Shadow Edition is a stealth game that’s challenging and punitive. Or, if you want to attract attention to make your enemies move from or to a determined location, using the sound is your best option. Remember to move nice and slow not to make too much noise, allowing them to detect you. Sound effects are spot on and play an important role in the gameplay because you enemies can hear you. 
Music and sound are also great! The music – or its absence – gives the tone to the universe you’re diving into, with some great Japanese themed songs or moments of almost silence where you must concentrate in the sounds around you.The one I liked the most is the visual over your character’s body when you’re immerse in shadows: the light tones over his shadow body gives an interesting sensation of menace (specially for some of the unlockable costumes like the Wrath – my favorite) that would scare the hell out of those who see him.
The visuals of your movements and abilities (your movement leaping from one shadow to another, for instance) have some pretty good effects and animations.
Aragami: Shadow Edition presents beautiful cell-shaded graphics and colorful scenarios. Prepare yourself and follow us into this gloomy review. With your powers over shadows, fight your way to the city fortress of Kyuryu while you uncover more about your past and understand your role into this battle between light and shadow. Developed and published by Spanish studio Lince Works, Aragami: Shadow Edition is a 3 rd person stealth game set in a feudal Japan-like world, you play as Aragami, a vengeful spirit summoned by a girl who’s imprisoned by the light army. 
After being very well received for PS4 and PCs, Aragami comes to Xbox One in its improved Shadow Edition version.
