Ghost of Yotei will be just as big as Tsushima but with even greater freedom

by

In simple terms, the developers at Sucker Punch have assured us that the game Ghost of Yotei will be just as expansive as Ghost of Tsushima, providing an equally immersive adventure for those who enjoy stories, exploration, and achievement hunters.

In the most recent State of Play presentation by PlayStation, the spirit of Yotei left a lasting impact, as viewers were treated to an extended preview of the sequel’s intense battles, innovative weapons such as the Odachi and Matchlock Rifle, and the visually stunning backdrop of Hokkaido.

In the upcoming installment of the Ghost series, we’re introducing a fresh main character and emphasizing more player autonomy. Our goal is to develop and enhance the game’s formula while preserving the elements that originally made it successful.

Indeed, it’s been verified that Ghost of Yotei will be on par with Ghost of Tsushima regarding scale and content, ensuring an equally immersive experience for those drawn to narrative, exploration, and trophy collectors alike.

Ghost of Yotei has a similar scale to Ghost of Tsushima 

In a recent conversation with VGC, creative leader Jason Connell disclosed that the team approached Ghost of Yotei with the same high-reaching aspirations they embodied in their smash hit from 2020.

Connell stated that while creating the game, we took inspiration from previous experiences in terms of size and depth. This approach proved rewarding for us as it provided a solid foundation to build upon.

In simpler terms, it takes approximately 25 hours to complete the main storyline of this game, similar to its precursor. However, exploring additional content or aiming for a Platinum trophy could extend your playtime up to about 60 hours.

Connell believes that no matter if you’re rushing through the story, taking your time to explore every nook and cranny, or aiming for a platinum trophy, playing Ghost of Yotei is likely to be comparable to Ghost of Tsushima in terms of the amount of time required.

Previously, it was mentioned that the game Ghost of Yotei would emphasize player autonomy more significantly, allowing players to explore their interests instead of relying on mission indicators. This upcoming title, with its fresh protagonist, unique environment, and arsenal of lethal tools, is one of our most eagerly awaited releases in this year.

Ghost of Yotei launches this October 2, 2025, exclusively on PlayStation 5.
