Ghost of Yōtei New Trailer

Coming on October 2, 2025

Ghost of Yōtei is set to launch on October 2, 2025, exclusively for the PlayStation 5. PlayStation and Sucker Punch Productions announced this exciting news on April 23, alongside the release of a new trailer titled "The Onryō’s List." This trailer not only showcases the game's compelling story and gameplay but also ends with the official release date.

In Ghost of Yōtei, players will follow the journey of Atsu, set in the heart of Ezo (present-day Hokkaido), as she seeks vengeance against the notorious Yōtei Six—the group responsible for her family's demise. Her quest involves hunting down each member: The Snake, The Oni, The Kitsune, The Spider, The Dragon, and the leader, Lord Saito.

As a standalone sequel, Ghost of Yōtei is set 300 years after the events of Ghost of Tsushima. Earlier this year, the developers shared insights into the game's new features, including an array of new weapons and mechanics, building on the success of its predecessor.

Hunt Down The Yōtei Six Your Way

One of the standout features of Ghost of Yōtei is the flexibility it offers players in pursuing their revenge. You can hunt down the Yōtei Six in any order you choose, crafting your unique path through the game. Sucker Punch detailed this and other features in a PlayStation.blog post on April 23, offering a deeper look into Atsu’s journey.

The game introduces an evolved approach to exploring the open world, providing more freedom and variety than its predecessor. Apart from targeting the Yōtei Six, players can engage in numerous activities in Ezo, such as tracking other dangerous targets to claim bounties or seeking out weapon sensei to learn new skills.

Fans of the series will also enjoy familiar activities, including the fan-favorite "Guiding Wind" feature. A new mechanic allows players to build campfires anywhere in the open world, emphasizing the freedom to explore and engage with Ezo's vast landscape. The developers are eager to share more details in the coming months.
