As a return to the style of the first three entries in the series, the game follows the half-genie Shantae as she explores an interconnected world. During her journey, Shantae encounters towns with non-player characters to interact with, as well as dungeon-style labyrinths containing new abilities to unlock and bosses to defeat. Shantae retains her ability to transform into other creatures, now utilized via an ability called "fusion magic" that allows her to instantly transform and use a creature's ability without having to select it like in past games. Additional special abilities can be performed by dancing. A new collectible card system allows players to obtain monster cards and use them to augment Shantae's abilities. Like other games in the series, completing the story awards the player with bonus artwork based on their final time and completion percentage, and unlocks a New Game Plus mode, which gives Shantae all of her transformations from the start of the game, in order to facilitate speedruns. The game follows the half-genie Shantae as she and her friends are invited to a tropical island to participate in the Half-Genie Festival. During a performance, the other half-genies in attendance mysteriously disappear, and Shantae must search the island and the sunken city beneath it to find them and uncover the reason for their abduction. Along the way, she runs afoul of her longtime nemesis Risky Boots and the mysterious rulers of this island, the "Seven Sirens".
