Sony unexpectedly shared news today of a sequel to one of the best games ever made “Ghost of Tsushima”.
The new game “Ghost of Yotei” will take place in 1603, more than 300 years after the events of Ghost of Tsushima. Set in the lands surrounding Mount Yōtei, a towering peak in the heart of Ezo, an area of Japan known as Hokkaido in present day. In 1603, this area was outside the rule of Japan, and filled with sprawling grasslands, snowy tundras, and unexpected dangers. It’s a far cry from the organized samurai clans who lived in Tsushima.
This is also Sucker Punch’s first game built from the ground up for PlayStation 5, and the team are excited to build on the visual foundation that was established in Ghost of Tsushima by making the world feel even more real. There will be massive sightlines that let you look far across the environment, whole new skies featuring twinkling stars and auroras, even more believable movement from wind on grass and vegetation, and more improvements that will be shared in the future. The new setting will also introduce new mechanics, gameplay improvements, and even new weapons.

Ghost of Yōtei will launch in 2025
