Sony has revealed Ghost of Yōtei from Sucker Punch, a follow-up to Ghost of Tsushima, and it’s due out next year.
The game will feature an all-new Ghost protagonist named Atsu and takes place in the lands surrounding Mount Yōtei – that’s on the island of Hokkaido in northern Japan.
The reveal trailer has something of a western vibe to it, with plenty of horse-riding and guitar music, and of course it looks stunning.
It looks like Atsu will be joined by a wolf companion, though she appears to be alone for much of the trailer.
Ghost of Tsushima was set in 1274, while Ghost of Yōtei takes place in 1603. So I wouldn’t expect previous Ghost Jin Sakai to make an appearance.
“When we set out to make a new Ghost game, we wanted to maintain the core pillars established in Ghost of Tsushima: playing as a wandering warrior in Feudal Japan, offering freedom to explore at your own pace, and highlighting the beauty of the world,” wrote Sucker Punch communications manager Andrew Goldfarb on the PlayStation Blog.
