So where are the Ghostwire Tokyo KK Investigation Notes? The game tells the story of how Akito and KK saved the world from certain doom at the hands of a madman. At the very core, it explores the various ways people deal with death and loss. In terms of getting to know our main characters, we get to know very little of Akito besides the fact that he will do anything to save Mari. The same cannot be said about KK, a person who tries hard to distance himself away from others and yet doesn’t hesitate to help those in need.
In total, there are 20 Ghostwire Tokyo KK Investigation notes to collect. 19 of which can be found within the city. The last one can only be found after Chapter 4 and going into the dense fog.
