Kai Tatsumoto

Kai Tatsumoto is a contributing writer for Inverse.

Kai writes about both video games and consumer technology, focusing on the appeal and merits of each no matter the subject. He has penned hundreds of reviews over the past decade across a wide range of platforms and genres, although the Metrovania genre holds a special place in his heart.

When not picking up a controller and a pen, he and his wife live vicariously through watching cooking videos or daily blogs of Japanese sea otters.
