The fall release of Ghost of Yotei is quickly approaching, and Gamescom Opening Night Live included a new trailer, offering another glimpse of cinematics and gameplay from the new open-world samurai game from Sucker Punch Productions. While the footage itself didn’t provide any new information, the end of the trailer confirmed that a huge feature from the game’s predecessor, Ghost of Tsushima, will return.
Ghost of Yotei is getting its own multiplayer Legends mode, which will take the game’s mechanics and combat into a supernatural setting for co-op multiplayer missions. Legends will be free DLC for anyone who purchases the base game, which releases October 2–but Legends won’t launch until sometime in 2026.
According to the PlayStation Blog, Ghost of Yotei Legends includes both two-player story missions and four-player survival matches. Like in Ghost of Tsushima Legends, players in Yotei Legends can choose between four classes. Tsushima Legends featured the classes of Samurai, Hunter, Ronin, and Assassin, though the PlayStation Blog post doesn’t confirm if those same classes will return in Yotei Legends.
Players in Ghost of Yotei Legends will face “demonic, giant versions of members of the Yōtei Six,” the antagonist group that the single-player story’s protagonist, Atsu, pursues in the game. Sucker Punch and PlayStation had already revealed a ton of details about Atsu’s story and how combat works in the game through a comprehensive deep dive.
PlayStation didn’t showcase any footage of Ghost of Yotei Legends gameplay and offered no specifics on its release date other than the 2026 window, with focus presumably going toward the release of the base game. Ghost of Yotei includes the returning black-and-white “Kurosawa mode,” and Sucker Punch aims for the game to be “fresh but familiar.”
