Full Fact Overview

The announcement confirms the cross-title integration of the protagonist from 'Ghost of Tsushima' into the 'Ghost of Yōtei' ecosystem via a specific game mode titled 'Most Wanted'. Technically, this requires the porting of the character model, animation sets, and the specific four-stance combat logic from the previous engine iteration into the current title's framework.
