Sucker Punch has announced the release of a new update for Ghost of Yotei. The update addresses several bugs and provides fixes for crashes. Additionally, the update fixes permanent mission blockers and fixes a bug where Deluxe Edition owners didn’t receive the Black Ghost Mask after completing the mission “To Catch a Spider”. Ghost of Yotei launched on October 2 for PlayStation 5. The game 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.”
