Bonus Episode #56 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan and Kyle dive deep into Ghost of Yotei, Sucker Punch’s chilling follow-up to Ghost of Tsushima. Set amid the wilderness of Ezo, this cinematic action-adventure blends folklore, myth, and breathtaking visuals into one of the year’s most atmospheric experiences. The guys share their impressions of how the game feels to play right from the opening hours, covering its sound design, pacing, and artistic direction while discussing how the world and mood are established.

From there, the conversation moves into combat flow, exploration, progression, and how alive the world feels as you climb the shadowed slopes of Mount Yotei. We wrap up with thoughts on the soundtrack’s tone and speculate about what might come next for the Ghost series. This is a laid-back, spoiler-light discussion for anyone curious about how Yotei builds on the legacy of Tsushima while forging a spirit all its own.
