Ghost of Yotei Adds New Game Plus in Biggest Update So Far, Here Are the Full Patch Notes

The biggest update yet for Ghost of Yotei has today released on PS5 and has notably added a New Game Plus option. This past week, developer Sucker Punch Productions revealed that New Game Plus would soon be coming to Ghost of Yotei alongside a host of additional changes to the open-world action game. At the time, it wasn’t fully known what this update would encompass outside of NG+, which left fans greatly interested to see what the final patch would end up doing. Now, we finally have the answers.

Downloadable at this moment, update version 1.100 for Ghost of Yotei is the most extensive one that the game has received since its launch in October. The vast majority of this patch is tied to New Game Plus itself, as new cosmetics, trophies, and armor have all been brought to this mode. Sucker Punch has also pushed out VRR support to the game and has implemented a “Balanced” graphical mode. When it comes to gameplay, players can also now automatically loot dead enemies, skip certain mini-games, and even create a new loadout slot.

Beyond New Game Plus, Sucker Punch has also made a few refinements to other aspects of Ghost of Yotei. The game should now experience fewer crashes on PS5, along with resolutions to certain visual oddities. Outside of this, specific bugged missions have also now been fixed in tandem with errors related to photo mode and autosave.
