Journey Across the Northern Edge of 17th Century Japan in Ghost of Yōtei, Out Now on PlayStation 5

Explore the breathtaking landscapes of Ezo as Atsu, a wandering mercenary on a path of vengeance and redemption




SAN MATEO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Sony Interactive Entertainment today announced the worldwide launch of Ghost of Yōtei™, the new highly-anticipated video game from Sucker Punch Productions. Available now on PlayStation®5, Ghost of Yōtei delivers a deeply immersive adventure set in 17th century Japan.

Ghost of Yōtei is Available Now

Ghost of Yōtei is available today on PlayStation 5. The game is offered in Standard, Digital Deluxe, and Collector’s Editions.

A New Standalone Chapter in the Acclaimed Series

Developed by Sucker Punch Productions and set 300 years after the events of the critically-acclaimed Ghost of Tsushima, Ghost of Yōtei is a standalone experience set in 1600s rural Japan. The game blends expansive exploration with intricate combat mechanics, while introducing a new setting and new protagonist, a haunted, lone mercenary named Atsu.

The story follows Atsu, who is thirsty for revenge as she travels through beautiful, rugged landscapes, hunting those who killed her family many years earlier, but she finds much more than vengeance.

“Sucker Punch Productions has crafted a remarkable experience for fans to enjoy on PlayStation 5. The dedication and care to bringing the landscapes, legends, and soul of Ezo to life is nothing short of inspiring,” said Hermen Hulst, CEO, Studio Business, Sony Interactive Entertainment. “We can’t wait for players to begin their journey. I hope that when you step into Atsu’s world you feel how much heart lies behind this creative endeavor.”

Ghost of Yōtei is a story of healing and redemption that runs deeper than vengeance, told through the eyes of a new hero set in the breathtaking edge of Japan,” said Brian Fleming, Co-Founder & Studio Head of Sucker Punch Productions. “We’re so proud of what the team has built, and we can’t wait for players to begin their journey.”

In addition, Ghost of Yōtei Legends, a cooperative multiplayer mode, will be arriving in 2026 as free post-launch downloadable content for owners of Ghost of Yōtei.1

An Experience Made Possible by PlayStation 5

Harnessing the power of the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Pro consoles, Ghost of Yōtei delivers views of Ezo with stunning visual fidelity, lightning-fast load times, and immersive combat made possible by the DualSense wireless controller’s haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. The adventure extends beyond the living room TV with PlayStation®Portal, allowing players to continue Atsu’s journey in the palms of their hands.2

PlayStation 5 Pro Features for Ghost of Yōtei include:

  • PlayStation® Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR): Get super sharp image clarity on your 4K TV using AI-enhanced resolution for ultra-high definition play with astonishing detail.
  • Advanced Ray Tracing: Experience next-level realism with ray-traced reflections, shadows, and high-quality global illumination as you explore stunning game worlds.
