"Ghost of Yōtei PS5 Release Date Announced"

The highly anticipated sequel to Ghost of Tsushima, Ghost of Yōtei, now has a confirmed release date. Dive into the details about the game's launch, its captivating new trailer, and the exciting digital deluxe and collector's editions.

Ghost of Yōtei New Trailer

Ghost of Yōtei is set to launch on October 2, 2025, as revealed by PlayStation and Sucker Punch Productions. On April 23, a new trailer titled "The Onryō’s List" was released, providing fans with a glimpse into the game's narrative and gameplay. This trailer ends with the exciting announcement of the release date.

Set 300 years after the events of Ghost of Tsushima, Ghost of Yōtei follows the journey of Atsu in Ezo (modern-day Hokkaido). She seeks vengeance against the notorious Yōtei Six, a group of outlaws responsible for the death of her family. The outlaws, known as The Snake, The Oni, The Kitsune, The Spider, The Dragon, and Lord Saito, are her targets in a tale of retribution.

The game introduces a host of new weapons, mechanics, and features, expanding on the beloved elements of its predecessor.

Hunt Down The Yōtei Six Your Way

In Ghost of Yōtei, players have the freedom to pursue the Yōtei Six in any order they choose, crafting a unique path of revenge. Sucker Punch detailed these features in a PlayStation.blog post on April 23, shedding light on Atsu’s journey and the game’s open-world exploration.

The game enhances the exploration aspect, offering more freedom and variety than Ghost of Tsushima. Alongside hunting the outlaws, players can track other targets for bounties or seek out weapon sensei to learn new skills. Returning features like "Guiding Wind" are complemented by new mechanics, such as the ability to build a campfire anywhere in the vast landscape of Ezo. The developers emphasize the freedom to explore and engage with the world, with more details to be shared in the coming months.
