The much-anticipated sequel to *Ghost of Tsushima*, titled *Ghost of Yōtei*, has finally revealed its release date along with an exciting new trailer that delves into the game's narrative and gameplay. Mark your calendars for October 2, 2025, when *Ghost of Yōtei* will launch exclusively on the PlayStation 5.

Ghost of Yōtei New Trailer

Coming on October 2, 2025

On April 23, PlayStation and Sucker Punch Productions unveiled the release date for Ghost of Yōtei. A captivating new trailer, titled "The Onryō’s List," showcased the game's story and provided a glimpse into its gameplay. The trailer concludes with the eagerly awaited release date: October 2, 2025.

Ghost of Yōtei follows the gripping journey of Atsu, set in the heart of Ezo (present-day Hokkaido), as she seeks vengeance against the notorious Yōtei Six, a band of outlaws responsible for the murder of her family. Atsu's mission is to track down and eliminate each member of this group: The Snake, The Oni, The Kitsune, The Spider, The Dragon, and Lord Saito.

This standalone sequel is set 300 years after the events of Ghost of Tsushima. Earlier this year, the developers shared insights into new features, including an array of new weapons and mechanics, building upon the acclaimed foundation of its predecessor.

Hunt Down The Yōtei Six Your Way

Ghost of Yōtei offers players the freedom to hunt down the Yōtei Six in any order they choose, allowing for a personalized path of revenge. Sucker Punch detailed these features on PlayStation.blog on April 23, providing a deeper look into Atsu's journey.

The game promises an enhanced exploration experience in its open world, offering more freedom and variety than Ghost of Tsushima. Beyond the main quest of hunting the outlaws, players will have numerous activities to engage in within the new setting of Ezo. According to the blog post, "Atsu can also track other dangerous targets and claim bounties, or seek out weapon sensei to learn new skills."

Fans of the series will recognize familiar activities, such as the beloved "Guiding Wind" feature. A new mechanic allows players to build campfires anywhere in the open world, emphasizing the developers' focus on player freedom and choice in the expansive land of Ezo. More details are expected to be shared in the coming months.
