Ghost of Yotei Update 1.1 Goes Live on PS5 With New Game Plus, Replayable Challenges, and VRR

The substantial patch refocuses the game on replay value through New Game Plus, broader graphics options, fresh accessibility tools, plus bug fixes.

Overview

  • New Game Plus lets players restart the story with existing gear, adding two upgradeable armor sets, new charms and cosmetics, a dedicated vendor, and two new trophies.
  • Ghost Flowers serve as a new currency in New Game Plus for purchasing items from the vendor, with rewards granted for completed activities.
  • Post‑game replay options now cover all 22 Yotei Six camps and 26 duels, with results screens tracking time, difficulty, and goals such as no‑damage runs.
  • Technical additions include Variable Refresh Rate support and new Balanced graphics modes targeting 40 FPS on 120 Hz displays, plus expanded Photo Mode tools.
  • Quality‑of‑life and stability updates add auto‑loot, a fall‑damage toggle, remapping options, skippable Sumi‑e minigames, an extra loadout slot, and fixes for rare crashes and mission blockers, as players continue to request features like transmog and Tsushima‑style loadouts.
