During PlayStation’s State of Play event earlier today, Sucker Punch Productions released a brief teaser trailer for Ghost of Yōtei. The video above confirms another State of Play event for July with a deep dive gameplay overview for the highly anticipated title. Below is a quick synopsis of the game.
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.
One by one, she’s hunting them down to avenge her family, armed with the same katana used to pin her to that burning tree all those years ago. But while Atsu’s story begins with vengeance, she’ll find there’s more to her journey than just revenge. As she explores Ezo, Atsu will meet unlikely allies and forge connections that help give her a new sense of purpose.
Ghost of Yōtei launches on October 2nd for PlayStation 5. Stay tuned for more details and let us know if you’re looking forward to the game.
