Ghost of Yōtei is getting a substantial update on November 24. The free patch introduces New Game Plus and a set of improvements aimed at endgame replayability, customization, and accessibility. NG+ becomes available after completing the main story and lets players start anew with everything they earned. The patch also expands difficulty options and adds two new Trophies. Beyond NG+, there are fresh tools for post-game, Photo Mode, and control remapping.

New Game Plus – carry your build into a tougher second run

Once you finish the campaign, New Game Plus unlocks and allows you to restart Atsu’s journey with all armors, abilities, and weapons from your first playthrough available from the outset. The mode arrives with harder difficulty options and two new Trophies tied to the update.

• 10 new charms – additional build variety for returning players.

Photo Mode expands with shutter speed control, a composition grid, and new filters – helpful tools for detailed action shots and cinematic framing.
