Ghost of Yotei Gets Story Expansion, Roguelike Mode and Complete Edition

Sony is giving Ghost of Yotei a paid narrative expansion and a roguelike survival mode on October 1, 2026, one day shy of the game’s first anniversary on PS5. Sucker Punch Productions announced both on the PlayStation Blog on August 12, 2026, alongside a $69.99 Complete Edition of the game that is on sale now, and a $14.99 upgrade path for existing owners.

The expansion, Echoes of Sekigahara, splits its story between the present day and flashbacks to protagonist Atsu’s time on the mainland. Players will meet Nagato, a figure from Atsu’s past who has arrived in Ezo, explore a valley once held by The Snake and his followers, and play through Atsu’s role in the Battle of Sekigahara. New enemies, heavy weapons, armor sets and dyes come with it.

Most Wanted is the second addition: a single-player combat survival mode Sucker Punch describes as its spin on a roguelike. Players accept bounties to start runs, earn perks by taking down enemies, and unlock additional playable characters. “Atsu is a master with the dual katana, while Oyuki excels with the kusarigama, and Nagato shines with a yari,” wrote Andrew Goldfarb, senior communications manager at Sucker Punch, in the announcement.

What the Complete Edition and the Upgrade Include

The Complete Edition bundles the base game, Ghost of Yotei Legends (the online co-op mode for up to four players), both new modes, all of the content from the game’s Digital Deluxe Edition, and the Charm of Hokkyokusei. Buyers can start the base game and Legends immediately; Echoes of Sekigahara and Most Wanted arrive through a patch on October 1, 2026.

Existing owners get the same two additions through the $14.99 Complete Edition Upgrade, and pre-ordering it unlocks the Digital Deluxe items and the charm immediately for anyone who doesn’t already have them. Anyone who buys the Complete Edition or pre-orders the upgrade by September 30, 2026 also gets an early unlock of the Sakai Armor on October 1, a throwback to Jin’s family armor from Ghost of Tsushima.

What Arrives With the October 1 Patch

The version 2.0 patch reaches every copy of the game on October 1, 2026, paid upgrade or not. It adds Beauty of Yotei, a screensaver-style mode that idles on the environments of Ezo for photo captures, plus quality-of-life features: the option to keep one armor set’s appearance while using another set’s stats, and a new high-contrast accessibility option.

Complete Edition buyers also get new tracks for Watanabe Mode playable across the whole game, new photo mode stamps, additional New Game+ cosmetics, and new Trophies for both Echoes of Sekigahara and Most Wanted. The blog’s fine print notes the patch lands October 1 globally but October 2, 2026 in some territories, including Asia, Australia and New Zealand, and that Legends’ online play requires a PlayStation Plus subscription.

A First-Party PlayStation Game Gets a Second Year

The Complete Edition launches October 1, 2026, one day before Ghost of Yotei’s first anniversary on PS5. Ghost of Yotei launched on October 2, 2025, priced at $69.99 for the standard edition, after Sony dated it in April 2025. Since then its post-launch support has been free: Legends arrived as a free multiplayer update for all owners, with Survival, Story and Incursion modes built around four-player co-op against supernatural versions of the Yotei Six.

The Complete Edition changes that model. It is the first paid content for the game, and it converts a year of free updates into a definitive package at the same $69.99 the base game launched at, while the standard edition alone currently lists at a discount on the PlayStation Store. For Sony’s first-party slate, it extends one of the PS5’s headline exclusives into a second sales window heading into the holiday quarter, and Sucker Punch says it will share more on both modes ahead of the October 1, 2026 launch.
