Ghost of Yotei Legends is set to expand the game's world beyond its single-player roots, bringing a supernatural co-op experience that builds on what fans loved about the original multiplayer mode.

The upcoming Ghost of Yotei Legends update will introduce new mission structures, class options, and endgame challenges, all designed to keep players returning long after the main story ends.

While the core campaign remains at the heart of the experience, Legends is positioning itself as a major draw for players looking for teamwork-focused content. With its mix of supernatural bosses, layered mission types, and character specialisations, the mode aims to deepen combat while encouraging coordinated play.

Sony has confirmed that Ghost of Yotei Legends will arrive as part of a free update, giving all owners of the base game access to the co-op mode when it launches in March.

Ghost of Yotei Legendswill launch alongside patch 1.5 as a free update for all owners of Ghost of Yotei. The mode is scheduled to arrive on 11 March in some regions, including Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, with other territories expected to receive it around the same timeframe.

The update will not require a separate purchase, meaning players who already own the game will be able to jump straight into the multiplayer mode once the patch is live. This mirrors the approach taken with the previous Legends mode, which also launched as a free addition.

It's not revealed whether players will be required to have aPlayStation Plussubscription to access the game since it's a multiplayer title.

At launch, Ghost of Yotei Legends will feature three main mission types designed to support different play styles and team sizes.

Survival mode allows up to four players to defend against waves of increasingly difficult enemies across four maps. Teams must control specific locations to activate Blessings, which provide advantages in battle. Losing control of a location triggers a Curse, making encounters more difficult. Each map features its own unique set of Blessings and Curses.

Story missions focus on two-player co-op. There will be 12 missions at launch, grouped into sets of three. Completing each set unlocks an Incursion, a larger four-player assault on a stronghold tied to one of the supernatural Yotei Six.
