Ghost of Yōtei PS5: The Vengeance of the North – A PlayStation 5 Exclusive

A New Legend Rises: Ghost of Yōtei

From the acclaimed creators at Sucker Punch Productions (known for Ghost of Tsushima), experience the next evolution of the samurai action-adventure genre with Ghost of Yōtei on PlayStation 5. This standalone sequel transports you to the stunning, untamed wilderness of 17th-century Ezo, Japan, setting the stage for a dark, personal journey of vengeance and self-discovery. This is not merely a ghost story; it is a cinematic epic built exclusively for the power of the PS5.

• A Gripping Tale of Revenge: Step into the role of Atsu, a haunted mercenary driven by a singular quest for retribution against the ruthless "Yōtei Six" gang who destroyed her family. As Atsu adopts the persona of an onryō (a vengeful spirit), you will explore the dark cost of bloodlust against the possibility of redemption.

• The Untamed World of Ezo: Explore a breathtaking new open world on the island of Ezo, set against the majestic, snow-capped backdrop of Mount Yōtei. Traverse sprawling grasslands, dense forests, and hidden settlements, with cinematic visuals and dynamic weather effects—including the shimmering Aurora Borealis of Japan’s far north—made possible by the PS5’s cutting-edge graphics.

• Renegade Combat Evolved: The lauded katana combat system returns, refined and expanded. Wield an all-new, deadly arsenal including leveled-up Dual Katanas, the long-reaching ōdachi, and the versatile kusarigama sickles. Master an array of new skills, from disarming strikes to unconventional ranged attacks, and build a fighting repertoire worthy of your new, feared persona.

• Unrivaled Player Freedom: The non-linear quest structure challenges you to hunt the six formidable gang leaders in any order you choose. The world reacts to your presence, with a sense of true discovery where in-game information is earned through organic exploration, random encounters, and reading the landscape, not just quest markers.

• PS5 Immersion: Feel every parry, strike, and gallop through the DualSense wireless controller's haptic feedback. Experience lightning-fast load times thanks to the PS5's ultra-high-speed SSD, plunging you instantly into the sweeping, detailed world of Ezo.

• Ghost of Yōtei: Legends Multiplayer: Team up for the co-op multiplayer experience (releasing as a free update), featuring two-player story missions and four-player survival matches against mythical, monstrous foes.
