Atsu, the heroine, is particularly praised, being called brave and cool.
The first reviews of Ghost of Yotei, a new "sandbox" from Sucker Punch and Sony Interactive Entertainment, have begun to appear online. Critics are once again delighted with the new Sony game. They praise literally everything, from the plot, graphics and world structure, to the heroine Atsu, whose development is extremely interesting to watch.
The game currently has a score of 89 out of 100 on OpenCritic and 87 out of 100 on Metacritic.
Ghost of Yotei differs from the original game in every way, improving and reworking everything from the combat system to the mission design. This is exactly what a sequel should be.
You will find a fascinating story of revenge set against the contrasts of beauty and violence in feudal Japan.
Torn by fear, Atsu is stuck between two states. On the one hand, a warrior who only dreams of feeling the spray of blood on her face when her blade pierces the hearts of enemies. On the other hand, a young girl wondering who she would have become if demons and flames had not devoured her family that night.
Sucker Punch has raised the bar of quality to an unattainable level.
However, some critics still decided to stand out, scolding the too simple and straightforward progression system, as well as the sometimes strangely behaving camera.
