New details about the upcoming Sucker Punch project have appeared on the official game website.

Players will take on the role of Atsu - a woman whose home was burned down and family murdered. Her bloody path of revenge will lead to the foothills of Mount Yotei - a harsh and merciless region where even Japanese authorities dare not tread.

Atsu will survive by taking bounty contracts and accepting random missions. Like Jin Sakai in Ghost of Tsushima, she will become legendary, though rumors suggest this time the plot (not just a single ending) may offer non-linear progression.

Ghost of Yotei will introduce three fundamentally new weapon types:

  • Ōdachi - a massive two-handed blade for devastating strikes
  • Kusarigama - a chain-and-sickle weapon familiar to Assassin's Creed Shadows fans
  • Dual katanas - a completely new addition to the franchise (unlike Jin who only wielded the Sakai clan's ancestral sword)

According to recent rumors, the game may release as early as summer 2025.
