Ghost of Yōtei is Sucker Punch Productions' standalone sequel to Ghost of Tsushima, released on 2 October 2025 exclusively for PS5. Sony has not released it on PC, and in March 2026 it was reported that a PC version will not be released. It is set in 1603 in Ezo (modern Hokkaido), 329 years after Tsushima. You play Atsu, a mercenary who is hunting the “Yōtei Six”, the group who killed her family sixteen years earlier.
Combat uses a katana, yari, kusarigama, ōdachi and dual-wielded katanas, plus bows, a tanegashima rifle and a tanzutsu pistol. A “weapon counter system” replaces Tsushima's stance system. Atsu has a grappling hook from the start, can befriend a wild wolf that helps in combat or stealth, and can camp almost anywhere to cook meals, craft ammunition and trade with vendors.
The game holds a Metacritic score of 86 and was named Adventure Game of the Year at the D.I.C.E. Awards. Sony reported about 3.3 million copies sold by 2 November 2025. A free multiplayer mode, Ghost of Yōtei: Legends, arrived on 10 March 2026, and a Complete Edition launched on 1 October 2026.
