Sucker Punch and PlayStation have released a new video for Ghost of Yōtei, called “Wander in Watanabe Mode.” The mode showcases the previously revealed Watanabe mode for the game, which is available now for PlayStation 5.
Watanabe mode is based on Shinichirō Watanabe, the director of anime such as Samurai Champloo, Cowboy Bebop, and Lazarus. Much like Samurai Champloo, the mode adds a lo-fi soundtrack which plays during exploration and combat. The soundtrack for the mode is available now on various music streaming services. Check out the Ghost of Yōtei “Wander in Watanabe Mode” video below:
Ghost of Yōtei is available now on the PlayStation Store for $69.99. Lastly, here’s an overview of the game, via Sony:
Set aside the order of the Edo period.
Become a different kind of ghost and witness a bold new story set against the stunning backdrop of northern Japan’s rugged landscapes.
Taking place 300 years after the critically acclaimed Ghost of Tsushima, this standalone experience follows a haunted, lone mercenary named Atsu in the 1600s. Thirsty for revenge, she sets out to hunt down those who killed her family many years prior.
Her quest across Ezo will take her to unexplored lands as she seeks out a gang of six outlaws. Along the way, she’ll encounter far more than she could have wagered for at the journey’s outset. Help her find unlikely allies, forge lasting bonds and build a path towards healing and redemption.
