Ghost of Yotei was revealed late last year, and fans immediately wanted to know when they could get their hands on this sequel to Ghost of Tsushima. Having more of that mix of stealth and sword-fighting is incredibly appealing, given how well these systems were developed. It’s no wonder that Yotei immediately got everyone’s attention, and Sucker Punch will likely continue giving fans more of the same.
To the surprise of many, not only did Yotei get another update, but this open-world action game now has a release date. It’s rare to see Sony follow up on their AAA games this quickly, given how long they take in development. But it won’t be long now and fans will be able to get their hands on this game soon.
