To get the paid Echoes of Sekigahara expansion and Most Wanted mode, buy the Ghost of Yōtei Complete Edition or, if you already own the game, purchase the Complete Edition Upgrade. The free Ghost of Yōtei Legends co-op mode is separate; online play in Legends requires PlayStation Plus.

Which Ghost of Yōtei content is paid?

The two paid additions are Echoes of Sekigahara and Most Wanted. Sony says both are delivered with patch v2.0, but access to them requires the Complete Edition or its upgrade.

Echoes of Sekigahara

This is a story expansion following Atsu in the present and through flashbacks to her time on the mainland and the Battle of Sekigahara. It adds a new valley, enemies, heavy weapons, armor sets, dyes, and other content. Sucker Punch’s announcement describes the expansion and its release.

Most Wanted

Most Wanted is a single-player combat survival mode. You accept bounties, begin runs, earn perks, and unlock characters; it is part of the paid content rather than the free Legends mode.

Ghost of Yotei (PS5)
  • Discover a bold, new story of a warrior in Japan who is on her own mission of vengeance.
  • Set 300 years after the critically acclaimed Ghost of Tsushima, Ghost of Yōtei is a standalone experience set in 1600s rural Japan. The story follows a haunted, lone mercenary named Atsu. Thirsty for revenge, she travels through the beautiful, rugged landscapes of northern Japan, hunting those who killed her family many years earlier.
  • Sixteen years after her family’s death, Atsu’s quest across Ezo brings her to unexplored lands in search of a gang of six outlaws, but she finds much more than vengeance. Throughout her journey, Atsu will discover unlikely allies, and greater bonds than she could have imagined.

How to get the content on PS5

  1. If you do not own the game: Buy the Complete Edition from the PlayStation Store in your region, then download and install the game and its available update.
  2. If you already own the game: Buy the Complete Edition Upgrade from the PlayStation Store, then install patch v2.0 and any related content download available for your copy.
  3. If you only want owner-wide update changes: Install patch v2.0; you do not need to buy the Complete Edition Upgrade for those changes.

PlayStation announced availability globally on October 1, 2026, with October 2 in some territories, including Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. Those announced dates have passed, but store availability and rollout can still vary by territory. Downloading requires an internet connection and a PlayStation account.

Is Ghost of Yōtei Legends free, and do you need PS Plus?

Legends is a separate co-op multiplayer mode, free for all Ghost of Yōtei owners. It includes Survival, Story, and Incursion modes. You still need a PlayStation Plus subscription for online multiplayer; Plus is sold separately and is not included simply by owning the game. See the official Ghost of Yōtei Legends page.
