The excitement for the eagerly awaited new game Ghost of Yotei in the PlayStation world is at its peak. Former PlayStation manager Shuhei Yoshida's positive comments about the game have increased expectations even more. Yoshida stated that this new game developed by Sucker Punch offers a surprisingly stable and fluid gameplay experience even while it is still in alpha. These statements provide important clues about the game's potential.
Full Marks from Yoshida to the Alpha Version
Speaking to Easy Allies in an interview, Shuhei Yoshida revealed that he had the opportunity to experience Ghost of Yotei multiple times in various tests organized by Sucker Punch. Despite having left his first-party project role at Sony, the studio’s regular invitations to Yoshida to test the game show their trust in him. Yoshida emphasized that during these tests, the game’s battle system never crashed and always worked smoothly despite being revised multiple times. This is proof of how much care Sucker Punch has put into the game’s technical infrastructure.
The Fluency of the Gameplay Fascinated
Yoshida stated that he almost forgot he was holding the controller while playing Ghost of Yotei, and that the gameplay was incredibly natural and fluid. According to him, studios like Sucker Punch and Naughty Dog have a unique ability to completely immerse the player in the game's world. Yoshida's words of praise signal that Ghost of Yotei's gameplay mechanics will provide players with an immersive and enjoyable experience.
High Expectations Despite Limited Information
The information that Sucker Punch has shared about its new game so far is quite limited. Ghost of Yotei only mentions a visually impressive open world and a structure that offers players a wide area of freedom. Although no official gameplay videos have been released yet, Yoshida's positive experiences in the alpha version show that the game is built on technically solid foundations.
Coming in 2025
Ghost of Yotei is scheduled to be released in 2025. This means that the game has passed a significant stage in its development process. The fact that Yoshida was so impressed even with the alpha version increases the expectation that the final version of the game will be even more impressive. Gamers are now looking forward to the official gameplay demonstrations from Sony. This demonstration will more clearly reveal the unique experience that Ghost of Yotei promises.
