Ghost of Yotei DLC Review – Echoes of Sekigahara and Most Wanted
The Echoes of Sekigahara story expansion and the new Most Wanted run-based mode deliver more of what made Ghost of Yotei great to begin
Ghost of Yotei DLC Review – Echoes of Sekigahara and Most Wanted
Ghost of Yotei has expanded upon its base game with the Ghost of Yotei: Complete Edition, which includes the Echoes of Sekigahara flashback questline and the new Most Wanted mode. The Complete Edition is available as a $15 upgrade for those who already own the base game, through the PlayStation Store.
Echoes of Sekigahara is a brief yet effective questline that weaves flashbacks of lead character Atsu's life into the middle of the base game. The DLC also introduces Most Wanted mode, which features grueling run-based combat challenges, with the added highlight of Jin Sakai, a playable character from Ghost of Tsushima, with all of his original mechanics intact.
The main addition to Atsu's arsenal in Echoes of Sekigahara is the disposable Massive Weapons, which add a new dynamic to Yotei's already fantastic rock-paper-scissors weapon mechanics. However, the addition doesn't fundamentally change the existing gameplay.
The DLC features two distinct things: Echoes of Sekigahara and Most Wanted, both of which are worthwhile additions to Ghost of Yotei. While Echoes of Sekigahara is a bit predictable, it is still captivating in how it is told, exploring Atsu's intimate side and her relationship with her old flame, Nagato. The new region, Ashoro Foothills, offers beautiful vistas, reminiscent of Ghost of Yotei's stunning visuals.
