Developer Sucker Punch Productions has revealed a new patch for the open-world samurai sim Ghost of Yotei that introduces a New Game Plus mode on November 24, which lets you literally bring a gun to a swordfight ... or at least more of them.The studio posted a video to the official PlayStation YouTube channel showcasing Ghost of Yotei's New Game Plus update as part of the upcoming free patch 1.100.000. The mode does exactly what you'd expect: allows you to replay the entirety of Atsu's revenge tale with all of the gear and skills you've already unlocked, giving you an edge--or a bullet--on the battlefield, which means you don't have to unlock the two different guns again. You'll start Atsu's journey already strapped.You can also replay challenges with stat tracking to set scores for certain duels, experience harder difficulty options in the settings menu, and purchase new gear (like charms, dyes, and cosmetics) from a new merchant.Sucker Punch Productions' senior communications manager Andrew Goldfarb revealed more details about the free update on the PlayStation Blog. He explained that patch 1.100.000 will also feature new accessibility options (such as directional button remapping), an enhanced photo mode, two new Trophies, and an extra upgrade tier for your existing armor and weapons.In other Ghost of Yotei news, we recently learned that the game's cool time-bending mechanic--which allows Atsu to return to her past to relive key story beats--was scaled back. The original plan was to let you do this whenever you wanted, but with it demanding extra work, creative director Jason Connell said the "right choice" was to narrow its scope, which honed its efficacy.Ghost of Yotei has been a success for Sucker Punch Productions and Sony. The action-adventure game has sold 3.3 million copies since its October 2 launch on PS5 and has been generally well-received by critics and fans alike. We awarded it a 9/10 in our Ghost of Yotei review, calling it a sequel that truly "builds and improves upon its predecessor."
