Sucker Punch Ends Major Updates for Ghost of Yōtei’s Legends Co‑Op Mode

The move ends new co‑op content only two months after launch, sharpening questions about Sony’s appetite for long‑running live modes.

Overview

  • Sucker Punch, which confirmed Friday on the PlayStation Blog that April’s Raid was the final major update, said the Legends mode will stay online and playable.
  • Legends launched March 10 and received its first expansion on April 10, creating a brief window for major new content.
  • Lead designer Darren Bridges said the Raid “finishes the story of the Yōtei Six,” framing the decision as the narrative endpoint for the mode.
  • Players voiced frustration in community posts, with some calling the short support a reason to skip buying the game.
  • The quick wind‑down follows strong early sales of about 3.3 million units in the first month and stands in contrast to Ghost of Tsushima’s Legends, which saw multiple updates from October 2020 to August 2021, leading outlets to question a broader shift away from extended live‑service support.
