Sucker Punch leaders Nate Fox and Jason Cornell talked to Famitsu about their upcoming game Ghost of Yotei. The new PlayStation 5 title follows main character Atsu on a revenge journey after childhood trauma. Fox said this game offers more freedom with the largest map they have ever created.
The team did heavy research for their second Japanese-set game. They worked with experts on Japanese history and Ainu culture. Cornell even traveled to Hokkaido, where the game takes place. He visited museums and learned about local crafts from people who know Ainu traditions. Cornell also went hiking in the mountains to gather wild plants with locals.
Ghost of Yotei will be available on PS5 starting October 2, 2025. The game shares some similarities with Assassin's Creed: Shadows, as both stories involve tracking down people who harmed the main character. However, gameplay will likely show major differences between these two titles. Fans will need to play both games to see how they compare.
