Sucker Punch Hints At More Than One Playable Character in Ghost of Yotei

Expert Verified By

Leaves Room For A Lot of Speculation!

Story Highlight
  • Ghost of Tsushima featured only one playable character, so it was expected to be the same in its spin-off sequel.
  • However, the developer has strongly hinted that there is going to be more than one playable character.
  • This adds to the excitement and leads to speculation by the fandom.

Ghost of Yotei, a spin-off sequel to Ghost of Tsushima, was revealed during the most recent PlayStation State of Play. The announcement took everyone by surprise, but the game has been receiving mixed reactions from fans.

Despite the criticism, the hype remains strong. With less than a month to go before release, more details are starting to emerge. Sucker Punch recently hinted at the possibility of more than one playable character, which is sure to spark even more excitement and speculation.

Why it matters: Ghost of Tsushima featured only one playable character, so it would be a fun and interesting addition to see more than one in its spin-off sequel if that’s the case.

Nate Fox, one of the directors of Ghost of Yotei, was recently interviewed by MinnMax. The YouTuber asked him 125 rapid-fire questions, and among them was whether there is only one playable character in Ghost of Yotei.

Interestingly, Nate Fox didn’t say anything in response, but his expression was priceless and strongly hinted that there might be another playable character.

The YouTuber then replied with a knowing “interesting,” in a tone that suggested he also sensed something was being kept under wraps.

Ghost of Yotei will offer more player freedom than any other Sucker Punch game.

If there is going to be another playable character in the game, that’s sure to excite even more of the fandom.

While it’s difficult to say who the second character might be, some fans speculate it could be Jin Sakai through some sort of past arc. However, that may be a bit too optimistic, so it’s probably best not to get your hopes up.

In the same interview, the game’s director revealed several interesting details. The story will be longer than its predecessor, and Atsu is not related to Jin Sakai, nor has he even heard of him. It’s also worth noting that the wolf companion won’t be directly controllable by the player.
