Ghost of Yotei Update 2.000 Prepares Game for Complete Edition
Sucker Punch Productions has today Ghost of Yotei update 2.000 (version 2.0) on PS5, and this is a big one that shifts the version from 1.604 to what it is now, which is a major jump.
This should bring the data for the game’s Complete Edition that’s set for release on October 1.
While the Complete Edition’s new content can’t be accessed unless you pony up for the upgrade, there will be added features and whatnot for base game owners.
Ghost of Yotei Receives Version 2.00 on September 21
Sucker Punch has not mentioned anything about today’s update just yet, much like the version 1.604 patch released a month ago,
For reference, last month’s patch, while undocumented by Sucker Punch, added the following:
- Added a new charm
- Added a new armor set (Snake), which was only available as a pre-order bonus previously
- Added a new dye (black purple onryo from the Deluxe Edition)
As for Ghost of Yotei: Complete Edition, it’s set to launch on October 1, and will include the following new content:
Ghost of Yōtei: Echoes of Sekigahara is our new narrative expansion. Split between the present day and flashbacks to Atsu’s time on the mainland, you’ll meet Nagato, a figure from Atsu’s past who has arrived in Ezo. In the present, you’ll explore a previously unseen valley once inhabited by The Snake and his gang of loyal followers, the Vipers. In the past, you’ll experience Atsu’s time in the Battle of Sekigahara and a key moment in her life before she returned home for her quest for vengeance. You’ll meet new enemies and find new heavy weapons, new armor sets, new dyes, and more.
Ghost of Yōtei: Most Wanted is a brand new single-player combat survival mode, our spin on a roguelike. You’ll accept bounties in order to start new runs, where taking down enemies will earn you perks, as well as unlock additional characters to play as. We’ll have much more to show soon, but as you can see in the trailer today, Atsu is a master with the dual katana, while Oyuki excels with the kusarigama, and Nagato shines with a yari. We love to watch the amazing combat reels that have been shared with us on social media, and can’t wait to see you all try to perfect these runs.
Ghost of Yōtei Complete Edition also includes all of the in-game content previously included in the Ghost of Yōtei Digital Deluxe Edition, as well as the Charm of Hokkyokusei. If you purchase by September 30, you’ll also get an early unlock of the Sakai Armor on October 1 for Atsu to wear, a throwback to Jin’s family armor from Ghost of Tsushima.
Other stuff included in the Complete Edition includes:
- New tracks for Watanabe Mode that will be available throughout the entire game when the mode is enabled.
- New photo mode stamps
- Additional cosmetics for New Game+, and new Trophies for both Echoes of Sekigahara and Most Wanted.
As for base game owners, the update set to be released alongside the Complete Edition and it will add the new Beauty of Yōtei mode, which allows for a screensaver-like view of the environments of Ezo to keep on and relax at home (and take stunning new Photo Mode captures). Sucker Punch will also add new tracks for the Watanabe Mode that will be available throughout the entire game when the mode is enabled.
Quality-of-life additions are also confirmed to be part of the update, such as transmog (option to keep the armor’s appearance while using different stats), a new high-contrast accessibility option, and more.
We’re hoping Sucker Punch releases the official changelog, and if we do see one, we’ll update the article to reflect the changes.
In other PlayStation news, we ran an exclusive report last week on how Media Molecule (LittleBigPlanet) will reveal its new project in 2027.
