Når kommer Ghost of Yotei til PC?

Ghost of Yotei from Sucker Punch is set to release on October 2, 2025. The action-adventure about a mercenary woman living by vengeance is a PlayStation 5 exclusive at launch. But will we see a Ghost of Yotei PC port? Most likely, yes. The studio’s previous title launched as a PlayStation 4 exclusive and later came to PC.

So let’s count the days between Ghost of Tsushima’s release on consoles and PC, and try to predict when Ghost of Yotei might arrive for Windows.

Ghost of Yotei as PlayStation 5 Exclusive

Launching on October 2, 2025, Ghost of Yotei is another strong reason to own a PlayStation 5. This single-player (for now) action-adventure with RPG elements delivers both quality gameplay and a cinematic experience inspired by Kurosawa’s samurai films. The game is developed by Sucker Punch and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment, just like the original Ghost of Tsushima back in 2020 for PS4.

Counting the Days Between Ghost of Tsushima’s Console Release and PC Port

Ghost of Tsushima, the previous game, is set in 13th-century Japan during the Mongol invasion of Tsushima Island. Players step into the role of Jin Sakai, a samurai torn between honor and survival, who must adapt his fighting style by blending traditional swordplay with stealth tactics.

Ghost of Tsushima was released on three platforms on the following dates:

• PlayStation 4 — July 17, 2020
• PlayStation 5 — August 20, 2021
• Microsoft Windows — May 16, 2024

The wait between the PS4 release and the PC port was 1,400 days. Even if we take the PS5 release as a reference, the gap was still over 1,000 days. That means the game stayed exclusive for several years before expanding to PC.

Prediction for Ghost of Yotei PC Port

If Ghost of Yotei follows a similar schedule, then PC players might expect a port around late 2028 or early 2029. Sony has been more open to PC releases recently, but the timeline still shows a gap of at least three years after the PlayStation launch. So while Ghost of Yotei is firmly a PS5 experience in 2025, a PC version is likely—just not anytime soon.

However, it appears to be very long, so it couldn't be in 2029. With Sony’s recent push to bring exclusives to PC faster than before, an optimistic window for Ghost of Yotei could be sometime in 2027 Q1. If the publisher keeps shortening the gap between console and PC launches, players might only wait around one and a half to two years after the PS5 release.

Ghost of Yotei Reception

Ghost of Yotei has been received warmly by critics, with most praising its story, combat, and atmosphere. Reviewers compared it to Ghost of Tsushima as a more personal and focused narrative, though pacing and sidequest design received mixed comments.

EGamersWorld called it “a perfect sequel, even if you’ve missed the first part.” The site compared its visual and emotional pleasure to the Death Stranding 2 experience, marking Ghost of Yotei as one of the standout exclusives of the PlayStation 5 generation.

Many outlets highlighted how the game’s protagonist and revenge-driven plot give it a sharper emotional edge compared to Tsushima, making it feel more intimate and character-driven. While the open world formula shows some familiar flaws, the strong swordplay, cinematic direction, and memorable storytelling secured Ghost of Yotei a reputation as one of the standout action-adventures on PlayStation 5.

Verdict

Ghost of Yotei stands out as one of the most promising PlayStation 5 exclusives, blending gripping combat, cinematic storytelling, and a fresh emotional edge that builds on Sucker Punch’s legacy. While PC players may need to wait—potentially until 2027 if Sony’s newer release strategy holds—the strong critical reception and clear demand suggest a port is almost inevitable.
