The floodgates are now open for Ghost of Yotei, which no longer has to remain in the shadows, and which began its promotion a few days ago with the announcement of its release date. It is therefore on October 2, 2025, that players will be sent to the heart of Ezo to embark on a vengeful quest to honor Atsu's family. A sequel that claims greater freedom and variety, within the largest open world ever created by Sucker Punch.
More details for Ghost of Yotei
As with Ghost of Tsushima, the developers want to immerse players in the world of Ghost of Yotei, which promises to be richer than ever. "Ezo is a character in his own right, filled with hidden secrets and an anthology of stories," Nate Fox, one of the co-creators, told Variety. Among the stories, there will obviously be that of Atsu. The main heroine - who already makes the game " woke" for some - who lost her family massacred by a gang of outlaws.
We already know that Atsu's mission in Ghost of Yotei will be to travel the new region of Hokkaido to take down one by one the six people responsible for the murders that traumatized her in her youth. And this in the order we want since the sequence is not imposed by Sucker Punch. In an interview with Famitsu, we learn that Atsu will always have a scarf decorated with the list of Yotei's Six and that it will remain permanently attached to her clothes, even if you change them. Likewise, she will carry her late mother's Shamisen, a traditional plucked string instrument, on her back.
Ghost of Tsushima 2's New Weapons
Ghost of Yotei will be a work of fiction that will combine elements of Japanese culture and Japanese period dramas with Western dramas. As the latest images have demonstrated, the developers are always keen to be as faithful to reality as possible. Thus, the game is directly inspired by the Ainu, the indigenous people of Hokkaido and northern Japan. And to make sure they don't miss a beat, the teams have traveled to the Land of the Rising Sun again to strengthen their research.
In terms of new possibilities in Ghost of Yotei, the player will be able to pick up and throw certain weapons that have been dropped by enemies. In addition, Atsu will have more extensive equipment than Jin Sakai. These include a spear and dual swords. Like Assassin's Creed Shadows, the different seasons will be represented by the various landscapes that always seem so sumptuous from an artistic point of view.
