Sucker Punch Productions’ 2020 samurai action game, Ghost of Tsushima, was a huge hit for its developer, so it’s not surprising that a sequel is on its way. Announced at a 2024 PlayStation State of Play showcase, Ghost of Yōtei tells a totally separate story from the one in Ghost of Tsushima. Now, PlayStation has revealed a bit more about the game and finally locked down a release date for later this year.
Ghost of Yōtei is set to release on October 2, and like its predecessor, it will be a PlayStation 5 exclusive. Ghost of Tsushima did eventually come to PC in a director’s cut edition, so while Sony hasn’t specifically said as much, it’s extremely likely that Ghost of Yōtei will get the same treatment. As expected from a game with as much hype as Ghost of Yōtei, it will also get a collector’s edition, which includes a replica of protagonist Atsu’s mask and other physical bonuses. Preorders will begin some time in May.
