Summary

  • Ghost of Yotei‘s protagonist, Atsu, will be on a quest for revenge against the murderers of her family.

Fresh insights about the upcoming open-world title from Sucker Punch, titled “Ghost of Yotei“, have emerged online. While Sucker Punch has been fairly quiet about “Ghost of Yotei” since its announcement last year, this recent update offers a somewhat clearer glimpse into what players might encounter in terms of the game’s narrative, gameplay aspects, and other details.

Initially revealed, only the setting of the story for Ghost of Yotei was clear; it would take place over 300 years beyond the events in Ghost of Tsushima. Surprisingly, this sequel chooses to depart from Jin Sakai, the beloved protagonist of Ghost of Tsushima, and instead focuses on a new character named Atsu. This leap in time and change of main character sparked some doubts among fans, but left many others eager to discover more about the upcoming game, Ghost of Yotei.

Though a new trailer for Ghost of Yotei hasn’t been released yet, enthusiastic fans have found some fresh insights about the game on its official PlayStation website. The latest updates reveal that the narrative of Ghost of Yotei revolves around Atsu’s quest for revenge following her family’s demise. Driven by rage and resoluteness, she vows to track down those responsible and make them pay. To finance this vendetta, Atsu will undertake various odd jobs and bounties. Players will have the power to choose how Atsu engages in combat, navigates survival, and develops the legend of the Ghost.

Ghost of Yotei’s Atsu Will Be on a Mission to “Hunt Down” Her Family’s Murderers

As a gamer, I can’t wait to get my hands on the new arsenal in Ghost of Yotei, including weapons like the odachi, kusarigama, and dual katanas – these weren’t part of the original Ghost of Tsushima experience. Sucker Punch has given us a sneak peek into the visual enhancements for PS5 users, showcasing stunning vistas with “massive sightlines” that offer an expansive view of the environment, skies filled with “twinkling stars and auroras,” and vegetation that “sways believably in the wind.” For those who have upgraded to a PS5 Pro, there’s even better news – the game will run on this mid-generation machine with enhanced performance and visuals.

Regarding gameplay and visual quality, it appears that Ghost of Yotei may surpass Ghost of Tsushima. However, some have criticized the revenge aspect in Ghost of Yotei‘s storyline, as it seems to resemble themes already explored in Ghost of Tsushima. For instance, Lady Masako’s questline in Ghost of Tsushima involved her avenging the murder of her family, which shares similarities with the story outline for Ghost of Yotei. On the other hand, Sucker Punch could potentially deviate from the expected revenge narrative in Ghost of Yotei and offer a completely fresh tale, but we’ll have to wait and see how things unfold.
