During the recent State of Play livestream, Sucker Punch released a short teaser trailer for Ghost of Yotei. The trailer shows a brief glimpse of protagonist Atsu and a new look at her wolf companion as they watch over a conflict in the distance. The trailer also reveals that a gameplay deep dive will be released in July. Ghost of Yotei will launch on October 2 for PlayStation 5. The game takes place in 1603, in the region of the Yotei Volcano and follows a new protagonist named Atsu. He “sets out on a journey in the lands surrounding Mount Yōtei, an area filled with sprawling grasslands, snowy tundras, and unexpected dangers.”
The game’s details:
Become a different kind of ghost and witness a bold new story set against the stunning backdrop of northern Japan’s rugged landscapes.
Taking place 300 years after the critically acclaimed Ghost of Tsushima, this standalone experience follows a haunted, lone mercenary named Atsu in the 1600s. Thirsty for revenge, she sets out to hunt down those who killed her family many years prior.
Her quest across Ezo will take her to unexplored lands as she seeks out a gang of six outlaws. Along the way, she’ll encounter far more than she could have wagered for at the journey’s outset. Help her find unlikely allies, forge lasting bonds and build a path towards healing and redemption.
