Sucker Punch Productions has today announced that Ghost of Yotei will be releasing on October 2 for PlayStation 5. The highly anticipated sequel to Ghost of Tsushima has also received a new trailer to celebrate the news, along with details about its Collectors Edition and Digital Deluxe Edition.
Sixteen years ago in the heart of Ezo (called Hokkaido in present day), a gang of outlaws known as the Yōtei Six took everything from Atsu. They killed her family and left her for dead, pinned to a burning ginkgo tree outside her home. But Atsu survived. She learned to fight, to kill, and to hunt, and after years away she has returned to her home with a list of six names: The Snake, The Oni, The Kitsune, The Spider, The Dragon, and Lord Saito.
Pre-orders will be going live from May 2. With it, players will get a bunch of bonuses for simply pre-ordering Ghost of Yotei, including a unique in-game mask, and seven PSN avatars that become available straight away. The Digital Deluxe Edition will contain a digital copy of the game; The Snake’s armour set; an alternate dye for the starting armour; a unique horse colour and unique saddle dye; an in-game Charm; gold Sword Kit; and an early unlock for a map which highlights statues to help upgrade skills called Traveller’s Maps.
The Ghost of Yotei Collectors Edition is pretty impressive. As well as all the pre-order bonuses and in-game items from the Digital Deluxe Edition, players will get the following:
- Replica display edition of Atsu’s Ghost mask
- Replica of Atsu’s sash
- Replica of the Tsuba from Atsu’s katana
- A pouch of coins and instructions to play Zeni Hajiki
- Foldable papercraft ginkgo tree with a wolf at its base
- Four art cards
Everything is detailed on the official PlayStation blog, including story beats from the trailer and more info on the content included in all of the special editions.
