Relic-Hunting Nekomata are special vendors in Ghostwire: Tokyo. Whereas the cat yokai at convenience stores sell arrows, Talismans, and food stuffs, these shopkeeps sell things like Magatama, emotes, camera filters, and outfits. Nekomata also pay large sums of Meika for the Relics you find across the map, locking even more collectibles behind their requests for them as secondary rewards.
This Ghostwire: Tokyo guide will show you where to find all 13 Relic-Hunting Nekomata across Shibuya. It’s worth noting that you’ll want to seek out their locations, too, because they can mark Relic locations on your map, speeding up the process of hunting them down. And once you find a Nekomata vendor location and interact with them, you can fast travel to them at any time.
Since much of the map remains behind fog for a majority of the game, it’s not until after you truly start clearing all of the Torii Gates in Ghostwire Tokyo that you gain access to the entirety of Shibuya. There’s a very specific path to follow well into Chapter 3.
It’s likely you’ll run across a small handful of these Relic-Hunting Nekomata by means of simply exploring the open-world of Ghostwire: Tokyo. This guide is meant more as a companion for your travels, helping you find Relic-Hunting Nekomata you haven’t yet bumped into.
Note the numbers in parentheses next to each Relic name in a Nekomata shop denote how many you have versus how many they seek for the reward. For example, (0/1) means you need one of a specific Relic, but do not have one for the single reward; (2/3) means you have two of three Relics needed for a single reward.
Once you select a Relic name in a Nekomata shop, a yellow circle will appear on your map denoting its general location, and its shop entry will be marked as “active.” Once you have the required number to turn in, the entry will turn green.
