Summary

  • Ghost of Yotei is currently at the top of the PlayStation Store pre-order charts in the US, UK, and several other territories.
  • The title will be set 300 years after the events of Ghost of Tsushima.
  • Ghost of Yotei will be released for PS5 on October 2.

Currently leading the pre-order rankings on the PlayStation Store in both the US and UK is “Ghost of Yotei,” an upcoming sequel to the 2020 open-world action game, “Ghost of Tsushima.” Sucker Punch unveiled this sequel back in September 2024, disclosing that it will bear a new title and focus on a fresh main character. Set 300 years after the original storyline, “Ghost of Yotei” follows Atsu as she seeks vengeance for her family’s murder by tracking down the perpetrators across Japan’s northern Enzo region.

Enthusiasts of the initial “Ghost of Tsushima” were given another glimpse at the sequel, “Ghost of Yotei”, last month, accompanied by an official launch date set for October 2nd. Many elements that made “Ghost of Tsushima” a success will carry over to “Ghost of Yotei”. In the trailer, Atsu was depicted slashing enemies with the same katana she had been pinned to a tree with, as the menacing Yotei Six torched her home. Additionally, “Ghost of Yotei” will introduce new elements by providing Atsu with a matchlock rifle for ranged combat against adversaries.

Enthusiastic gamers can’t wait to learn more about the new approach Sucker Punch is taking with Ghost of Yotei, as indicated by the large number of pre-orders already placed for this highly anticipated title. Currently sitting atop the PlayStation Store’s pre-order charts in the US, UK, and several other regions (as reported by PushSquare), the $80 Deluxe Edition of Ghost of Yotei has a slight edge over the standard $70 version. Pre-orders for this upcoming title on the PlayStation 5 began last week, with its release scheduled six months later in October.

Ghost of Yotei Tops PlayStation Store Pre-Order Chart

Back in the day, I was totally hooked on “Ghost of Tsushima” for my PlayStation 4. It was a massive hit, and in 2021, an enhanced PS5 version dropped, followed by its PC debut in 2024. Now, And get this – they’re also working on an anime series inspired by the game’s multiplayer mode, “Ghost of Tsushima: Legends.” Can’t wait to see where these developments take us!

The achievements of the game are now extending towards the upcoming title in Sucker Punch’s open-world samurai series, known as Ghost of Yotei. Numerous gamers have already reserved a copy of this sequel ahead of its release. Compared to its predecessor, Ghost of Yotei will offer several differences, including a non-linear storyline. Notably, former PlayStation and Sony executive Shuhei Yoshida has commended the game for delivering a polished and glitch-free gaming experience, expressing eagerness to explore the complete game when it hits shelves this fall.
