Ghost of Yotei lands on PS5 as a big-budget, story-led action game in the same conversation as other cinematic PlayStation adventures. If you've enjoyed modern open-world swordplay and stealth games, this is the sort of release that aims to scratch that itch, with a focus on atmosphere, exploration and set-piece combat rather than arcade pacing.

Who will get the most out of Ghost of Yotei?

This one suits players who like taking their time: clearing side activities, soaking up a strong sense of place, and switching between direct fights and quieter approaches. It's also a solid pick if you want something that shows off the PS5's strengths, fast loading keeps momentum up, while the presentation leans into dramatic lighting and detailed environments to sell the world.
