Looks great but we are all glad that it is at least happening. 

 

Skeptical with choice of Woman protagonist. Jin Sakai was pretty badass. 

 

That's what I thought, we felt connected with that protagonist. They could've extended his story, that could've created more hype. 

 

in b4 "his story was concluded and blah blah"

Yeah. And since the name is Yotai. Maybe it's ok, let's hope they deliver. In this era, let's just be thankful a single player story driven AAA title is coming on our way. I am happy. 

 

As for upcoming Woke comments, I would be equally mad (not even skeptical) if they decide to have a male protagonist for Horizon series.

Sucker Punch Productions:

"Today we are so happy to announce Ghost of Yōtei, the latest game from Sucker Punch and the introduction of our new hero, Atsu.

When we set out to make a new Ghost game, we wanted to maintain the core pillars established in Ghost of Tsushima: playing as a wandering warrior in Feudal Japan, offering freedom to explore at your own pace, and highlighting the beauty of the world.

We also wanted to continue to innovate. To create something fresh but familiar, we looked beyond Jin Sakai’s story and the island of Tsushima, and shifted our focus to the idea of the Ghost instead. At Sucker Punch we love origin stories, and we wanted to explore what it could mean to have a new hero wearing a Ghost mask, and uncovering a new legend. This led us to Ghost of Yōtei: a new protagonist, a new story to unfold, and a new region of Japan to explore.

While we aren’t diving into story specifics yet today, we can reveal that Atsu’s journey takes place in 1603, more than 300 years after the events of Ghost of Tsushima. Our story is set in the lands surrounding Mount Yōtei, a towering peak in the heart of Ezo, an area of Japan known as Hokkaido in present day. In 1603, this area was outside the rule of Japan, and filled with sprawling grasslands, snowy tundras, and unexpected dangers. It’s a far cry from the organized samurai clans who lived in Tsushima, and it’s the setting for an original story we can’t wait to tell.

This is also Sucker Punch’s first game built from the ground up for PlayStation 5, and we’re excited to build on the visual foundation we established in Ghost of Tsushima by making the world feel even more real. We have massive sightlines that let you look far across the environment, whole new skies featuring twinkling stars and auroras, even more believable movement from wind on grass and vegetation, and more improvements we’ll share in the future. Our new setting also gives us the opportunity to introduce new mechanics, gameplay improvements, and even new weapons.

Our trailer today offers a glimpse into this world, but there’s so much more to show, and we’ll have much more to share in the months ahead, including details about Atsu’s journey and the people (and animals) she’ll meet along the way. We are forever grateful for the success of Ghost of Tsushima, and we can’t wait for you all to experience Ghost of Yōtei in 2025."

Totally, always glad for Single Player announcements. 

As for woke agenda hardcore, they felt Stellar Blade was a 'too revealing' or 'a game for desperate' according to them. They aren't glad for female protagonist. She just shouldn't be beautiful or they gets triggered.

Sure, will take it. But wouldn't hurt if Mongols retaliated another parts of Japan or similar.

We don’t know anything about the story, so let’s wait

Well, it is still too early regarding the MC and the overall game as we have not seen much gameplay. 

 

Knowing SP's history, I'm sure that we will get the same refined gameplay and environment as in GOT. However there is always the risk of political messaging that have befallen some well known developers like Bioware and Rocksteady, once known for their great stories. 

 

At least we have a native Japanese and normal looking woman for a start.

There’s nothing normal looking about a woman that size carrying heavy armours & weaponry to take on hordes of enemies (mostly men with much bigger size)

Unless of course they design the gameplay solely focused on stealth & ranged combat this time around…

 

Atleast make the character look like Abey if you really want to fit a woman in an otherwise macho genre.
