In any case, a stop in Ezo is a must for fans of Jin Sakai, and in general, anyone looking for a gripping and evocative adventure would do well to take on the role of Onryo.

Sucker Punch thus treats us once again to a beautiful epic in feudal Japan, which has nothing to be ashamed of compared to the great Japanese cinema from which it draws inspiration, and is worthy of the most poetic of haiku with a soothing shamisen tune in the background.

Ghost of Yotei is a confident sequel that grows from its predecessor in smart ways, with a bigger, bolder, more beautiful world to explore every nook and cranny of. Atsu is a strong lead, and her journey of vengeance takes some compelling twists and turns, while Edo Japan provides a true bounty of interesting side quests, charming characters, neat distractions, and wonderful secrets across what feels like a truly epic adventure. With entertaining combat and visuals that are among the best seen, Ghost of Yotei balances its violence and beauty delicately, offering a strong experience from the team at Sucker Punch Productions: an entirely memorable journey, and an action-packed, stunning adventure.
Ghost of Yōtei is every bit the spectacle players should expect from the team behind Ghost of Tsushima. While the fundamental core remains familiar, Sucker Punch shows an even deeper understanding of vibrant, engaging worlds and Japanese culture.
On top of its gripping narrative, expanded weapon variety, and redefined approach to open-world game design, Ghost of Yōtei is a must-play and instant classic on PlayStation 5.
While fans of the original may initially find it more iterative than evolutionary, Atsu's quest for vengeance is an incredible new tale from Sucker Punch that expands on Tsushima in all the best ways.
After nearly 60 hours with Ghost of Yotei I can confidently say that this game elevates Tsushima into a new level, and introduces lots of well made innovations. It is a game with its own identity, a beautiful world, great exploration, and a cool story with a satisfying finale.

Ghost of Yōtei is an improvement on Tsushima when measured by almost any metric. The beautiful open world is dense and invites exploration, the combat is tighter and more varied, but it's Atsu's personal, honest story of revenge and self-reflection that makes this an unforgettable masterpiece.

AAA samurai action with style, depth and thrilling combat; an open-world triumph.
Ghost of Yotei is automatically one of my favorite games of 2025. It comes at a time when people just want to kick some ass in the most beautiful settings imaginable, and it's one of the more satisfying plays you'll find on the PS5. It's the most fun you'll have checking off a to-do list.
Ghost of Yōtei is a visually stunning and immersive open-world experience with satisfying combat, and an emotionally resonant narrative. While the game's secondary content and open-world structure can be repetitive, it carefully balances beauty and brutality, offering a memorable journey through feudal Japan. It refines the formula of its predecessor, earning its place as a standout title on PlayStation 5.

After more then 300 years a ghost returns, but now, manifested as a vengeful spirit. Atzu takes upon the role of onry& 333; to finally revenge her family, as she has sworn 16 years ago. Her homeland of Ezo is vibrant, expansive, full of surprises and wants to be explored. So, while acquiring a set of Katanas, & 332;dachi, Yari, Kusarigama and other tools, she slowly climbs up the ladder of names that make up the Y& 333;tei Six. And naturally, the cloth with all their names just keeps getting bloddier and bloddier'

Ghost of Yotei is exactly what we've come to expect from Sucker Punch – a beautiful, polished, and incredibly atmospheric tale of revenge that perfectly fits the tradition of PlayStation exclusives. Atsu delivers as a heroine, combat can be truly intense and satisfying, and the world – despite some shortcomings – is delightfully detailed. At the same time, it's a conservative title: no bold decisions, no revolution, and a finale that leaves a bit unsatisfied. It's a classic, solid Sony production – great to play, though without any memorable moments.

If you loved Ghost of Tsushima, you will love Ghost of Yotei even more. With five distinct weapons, its action has become much more varied and fluid, and with the subtle Japanese elegance that permeates every corner of the game, it is, as a whole, a truly "beautiful" production.

A true love letter to classic samurai films, Ghost of Yotei is wonderfully presented and an absolute joy to play. Its stunningly-realised world will have you immersed from the outset, spurring you to explore and discover its secrets in order to develop Atsu into a fearsome ghost. And its combat remains thrilling throughout.
his sequel goes beyond a new plot and island, with added freedom in how to tackle the first half of the story, but it might not go enough with addressing the mix and match feel of the first game.
