What critics said
Too Much Gaming80Ghost of Yotei: Complete Edition bundles the base game with Echoes of Sekigahara, Most Wanted, and Legends co-op. While the main campaign drags, Most Wanted delivers an excellent roguelite combat experience, especially with Jin Sakai.
COGconnected95That’s ultimately what the Complete Edition amounts to: a compact story expansion with one questionable narrative decision, an excellent new single-player mode that’s as satisfying as it is brutal, and a relaxing bonus for anyone who enjoys taking in Ghost of Yōtei’s gorgeous scenery.
PlayStation Universe100Ghost of Yōtei is that rare sequel that not only maintains the essence of its highly successful predecessor, but also qualitatively leapfrogs it in just about every meaningful way and metric. Underscored by a grippingly furious tale of revenge inspired by a layer cake of classic Japanese samurai cinema, the best combat ever seen in a samurai title and the most compelling open world since Red Dead Redemption 2, Ghost Of Yōtei is a jaw-dropping demonstration of Sucker Punch Productions operating at the peak of its considerable powers. Ghost of Yōtei redefines the term 'must-have' and wholly validates PlayStation Studios broader approach to embracing single-player epics such as this. Though both Most Wanted and Echoes of Sekigahara are superb additions to the base game, it's really Echoes of Sekigahara that stands out, offering a full-blooded continuation of 2025's best game and providing a timely reminder to us all that no other studio can do open-world samurai action quite like Sucker Punch. Ghost of Yōtei Complete Edition is simply essential.

Opinion: Ghost of Yotei Was a Weirdly Disappointing Sequel After Loving Tsushima
Ghosted. Here on Push Square, it's a well documented fact that I love Ghost of Tsushima. The original 2020 release turned out to be basically everything that I wanted: a sword-swinging, cinematic epic that was stunning to behold. But I can't say the same for Ghost of Yotei, and that's been a point of frustration for me over the last year or so. Read the full article on pushsquare.com
