Ghost of Yōtei Complete Edition Packs New Expansion and Roguelike Mode

The move signals Sucker Punch’s push into larger single‑player expansions, plus experimentation with roguelike design.

Overview

  • Sony and Sucker Punch announced the Ghost of Yōtei: Complete Edition on Wednesday, listing the digital edition immediately and pricing the Complete Edition at $69.99 with a physical disc due October 1, 2026.
  • The Complete Edition includes a new narrative expansion called Echoes of Sekigahara that alternates present‑day exploration in a previously unseen Ezo valley with flashbacks to protagonist Atsu’s time at the Battle of Sekigahara and introduces a character named Nagato.
  • Most Wanted is a new single‑player, roguelike‑style survival mode where players accept bounties to start runs, defeat enemies to earn perks, and unlock additional playable characters with distinct weapon specializations.
  • Existing owners can buy a $14.99 Complete Edition upgrade to access Echoes of Sekigahara and Most Wanted, and Sucker Punch pushed a large preparatory update (1.604) on August 13 while confirming the new content and quality‑of‑life changes will arrive via an October 1 patch.
  • All players will receive free updates on October 1 including a Beauty of Yōtei screensaver/photo mode, armor appearance‑vs‑stats transmog, a high‑contrast accessibility option, new trophies and cosmetics, and the upgrade pricing has prompted criticism about how studios compensate early buyers.
