Oh man, Sony just dropped some big news—again! So, Ghost of Yotei is back in the spotlight. I was just sipping my morning coffee when I remembered that they last teased us with a trailer in the heart of summer, you know, when everyone’s melting and dreaming of winter. Somehow it stuck with me, no idea why, guess I’m a sucker for action RPGs.
Anyway—or wait, yeah—just realized we’re already past the first week of July. Time flies, eh? So, if you’re itching for more details, the wait’s almost over. This Thursday, July 10 (mark your calendars if you didn’t already), there’s a State of Play livestream coming. Twenty whole minutes dedicated to nothing but Ghost of Yotei. That’s like a whole episode of your favorite sitcom—minus the laugh track.
Jason Connell and Nate Fox from Sucker Punch are the ones hosting. Yeah, those creative bigwigs. They’ll dive into the meat of the sequel—Atsu’s on some new quest, apparently, with new weapons. I’m curious but also, honestly, just hoping it involves less dying on my part. Who knows.
And then there’s this mention of “personalizing your journey.” What’s that mean? New skins? Magic swords with neon glows? I mean, literally no idea, but it sounds cool, probably.
Oh, and modes! Could Legends be making a comeback or evolving? Or, and this is just a wild guess, maybe something artsy like that Kurosawa mode from Ghost of Tsushima where everything looks like an old Samurai flick. That was a real trip—like watching an old grainy movie while actively gaming.
Everything’s gonna be streaming live at 2pm PT, 5pm ET, 10pm BST, and 11pm CEST. Check it on the PlayStation Twitch or YouTube—those links should be somewhere around unless, like me, you keep losing everything in your tabs.
And the game itself? Ghost of Yotei hits PS5 on October 2. Feels like ages away, but October’s gonna roll up fast, just you watch.
