Ghost of Yotei developer Sucker Punch Productions has confirmed its Legends multiplayer mode will not receive any additional major updates after first launching in March.
Lead designer Darren Bridges announced the end of online support for developer Sucker Punch Productions' 2025 PS5-exclusive sequel in a message shared via the PlayStation.Blog. The post itself mostly serves to cover all of the big changes brought by the new Raid update, which launched April 10, but comes with the caveat that this content-packed patch will be the online modes' last.
"The Raid update was our last major planned update for Legends," Bridges said. "It finishes the story of the Yōtei Six in that mode. We’ve loved to see players playing it, continue to play it and enjoy it. It’s been great."
Ghost of Yotei launched for PlayStation 5 October 2, 2025, but Sucker Punch didn't go on to announce plans to add its Legends mode as a free DLC until February of this year. Its release date then followed March 10.
It's unclear why the studio has ceased support for any future major updates just two months removed from its launch. Although major content updates are coming to an end, Sucker Punch did not clarify how long Ghost of Yotei Legends will receive smaller patches for things like bug fixes and balancing.
It's especially shocking news considering Sucker Punch supported the Legends mode for Ghost of Tsushima long after its launch in October 2020. December of that same year brought PlayStation-themed skins based on Bloodborne, God of War, and more, for example. Then, in August 2021, the studio announced a standalone version of the experience, which also included a whole new game mode called Rivals when it launched in September.
Ghost of Yotei launched as a particularly popular PS5 exclusive, with Sony saying in February that it "significantly" contributed to its financial results at the time. We gave it an 8/10 review at launch.
"A predictable but well-executed story takes you through Ghost of Yotei's gorgeous landscapes and satisfying, fluid action – it may not be revolutionizing open world games, but it's a great distillation of the samurai fantasy," we said at launch.

Super Mario RPG for $15GameStop has a flash sale today on Super Mario RPG, and you can score one of the best Mario games on Nintendo Switch for just $15. This adventure is a collaboration between Square Enix and Nintendo, following Mario, Bowser, Peach, and new friends on a journey to find the seven star pieces. In our 8/10 review, we wrote, "Super Mario RPG is considered a classic for a reason, and this faithful remake makes it easy for anyone who missed it in the SNES era to see why.
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment for $49.99The Hyrule Warriors series returned on Nintendo Switch 2 with a true canon story in Age of Imprisonment. You can score a copy for $49.99 today at Best Buy, which saves you $20. In our 8/10 review, we wrote, "Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment’s story may fail to capture the promise of a Tears of the Kingdom prequel, but the gameplay more than makes up for that by wonderfully fusing its source material’s craziest ideas with great 1 vs. 1,000 battles, resulting in the best action of the series yet."
Akira 4K Blu-ray for $9.99Akira is one of the most beloved anime films of all time. In recent years, the film received a 4K Blu-ray, and today, you can pick up a copy for $9.99 at Amazon. Those just exploring the world of anime for the first time are in for a treat, and returning fans can appreciated the remastered visuals in beautiful 4K.
DJI Mini 3 Drone for $379DJI drones are well-known for being high-quality and expensive. Today, you can score a DJI Mini 3 (DJI RC) drone for $379.99, saving you 31% off MSRP. This drone packs in a 4K HDR camera, a 10km range, and up to 51 minutes of flight time. No registration is needed for this drone, meaning you can fly without any paperwork or remote ID.
Final Fantasy I-VI Collection for $46.01Amazon has the Final Fantasy I-VI Collection Anniversary Edition on sale for $46.01 this weekend. This collection packs in the Pixel Remasters for the original first six mainline Final Fantasy adventures, which is perfect for both longtime fans and series newcomers. Each game comes out to under $8, and the Switch version has everything on the cartidge.
Save $20 Off Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds for Switch 2Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds launched late for Nintendo Switch 2, but SEGA delivered with a proper physical that's on the game card. Right now, you can save $20 off a physical copy of CrossWorlds for Switch 2 at Best Buy. If you haven't checked out SEGA's wild, collab-filled racer, now is a great time.
Save $10 Off Star Fox for Switch 2Nintendo finally revealed the long-rumored Star Fox game for Nintendo Switch 2, and Fox and crew are finally back for a new (remade) adventure. While physical copies are normally priced $10 higher than digital, you can score a physical copy of Star Fox for $49.94 from Amazon right now.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond for $39.99Additionally, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is on sale this weekend at Best Buy for $39.99. The latest adventure of Samus Aran takes place on the planet Viewros, and there are plenty of new powers to unlock. Nintendo Switch 2 owners can upgrade to the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition for $9.99.
Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark TiesYakuza Kiwami 3 is on sale today for $39.99, marking the lowest we've seen this one yet. After years of fan demand for a remake, SEGA and RGG Studio delivered earlier this year with Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties. In our review, we wrote, "Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties is a largely successful makeover of Yakuza 3. It finds fun new ways for Kiryu to engage with the orphans in his care, which both livens up the original game’s most boring bits and also made me more deeply invested in the sharper end of its story. Combat has been transformed from a street-fighting struggle to a dynamic delight, and this slice of Okinawa presents a welcome seachange from the series’ more overused city settings."
Save Big on a Crunchyroll SubscriptionCrunchyroll raised subscription prices not that long ago, and for a limited time, new and returning subscribers can score three months of the service for $2 a month. Crunchyroll is home to hundreds of popular anime, inlcuding Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, and more. My favorite anime of the year, Fate/strange Fake, is also available on the service.
Dragon Quest VII Reimagined for $49.99Dragon Quest VII Reimagined is one of the biggest RPG releases of the year so far, and this weekend you can score a copy on any platform for $49.99!

Nintendo recently announced that moving forward, physical games will be $10 more than digital games, so this deal sets you back to where physicals previously were.
Suzume for $13.49Suzume is the latest film from Makoto Shinkai, and it is certainly one to remember. This film follows Suzume on a journey across Japan who attempts to close doors that bring disasters to the land. If you're a fan of Your Name or Weathering With You, Suzume is an easy recommendation.
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade (Switch 2) for $29.99Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade dropped on Switch 2 earlier this year, and today, you can score a copy for $29.99 from Walmart.

Coming-of-age video game Mixtape is packed with licensed music from artists like Devo and The Smashing Pumpkins, but publisher Annapurna Interactive and developer Beethoven and Dinosaur have told fans not to worry about the game potentially being delisted down the road.
Creative director Johnny Galvatron kept concerns about the game's future from spinning out of control during a recent interview with Kotaku. Despite featuring a full playlist of tracks from recognizable groups throughout its foot-tapping story, he said that the team paid extra to maintain licenses for each track in perpetuity.
Annapurna followed up the interview with its own statement in an X/Twitter post. It said, "We heard some people say MIXTAPE would be delisted due to music licenses expiring. That was a lie."
We heard some people say MIXTAPE would be delisted due to music licenses expiring.
That was a lie.
Have a great weekend, everyone. https://t.co/C3VesfWPpz
Fears that Mixtape could, at some point, be pulled from digital shelves aren't exactly unfounded. Plenty of games have suffered similar fates due to expired licenses in the past, including Rock Band 4 late last year and the original Alan Wake in 2017. Even Grand Theft Auto 4 replaced a few tunes after some licenses expired in 2018.
It's clear Beethoven and Dinosaur wanted to put in the effort to make sure its story and the music woven throughout it remained intact for years to come. One example of a "boundary test" idea that was floated but didn't pan out involved asking Pink Floyd for a song, but the team's supervisor cautioned that the classic rock band wasn't likely to give them the track they were after. That said, when it came to getting the other tunes they wanted, Galvatron told Kotaku the team never ran into any real horror stories and got "pretty much everything [they] asked for."
"There's just so many points in the game where Stacy turns the screen and says 'This is the Smashing Pumpkins, and it's fucking sick,'" he added. "You send that to [Smashing Pumpkins frontman] Billy Corgan and he goes, 'This is the Smashing Pumpkins and it's fucking sick, yeah, they can do that. That’s fine.'"
Mixtape launched for PC, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X | S May 7, 2026. IGN called it a "Masterpiece" in our 10/10 review.
"A musical delight from start to finish," we said at launch last month, "Mixtape sets a new standard for coming-of-age stories in video games and does so with a masterful sense of style."

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is a Switch 2-exclusive that was released in November of last year. Up until now, the price has stayed fixed at $69.99. Even today, retailers like Amazon, Gamestop, and Nintendo eShop haven't budged. That's not the case for Best Buy, however. Best Buy has dropped the price of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment by 30%, down to $49.99, with free shipping for a physical copy. In fact, if you're a My Best Buy Plus member, you can get it for $39.99, saving up to 43%.
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment on Sale at Best BuyHyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is developed by Koei Tecmo. It's the third game in the series (although the first to be exclusive to the Switch 2) and a spinoff of Koei Tecmo's popular Dynasty Warriors franchise. The premise is the same: you're an OP character that can take down hundreds, nay, thousands of minions with one of nineteen Hyrulean champions, including Zelda, Calamo, Mineru, and Rauru. It's a total power trip kind of game and I absolutely love it.
Logan Plant gave Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment an 8/10 score in his review. You can also watch the video below to see some gameplay.
Preorder Star Fox for Switch 2 and Save $10
If you're looking for more Switch 2-exclusive titles to justify that $500 console purchase, check out Star Fox, which comes out next month. The space fox has become a lot more popular recently thanks to his extended cameo in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, and now he reprises his role once again in this remake of the original 1997 game.
The launch price is set at $59.99, but preordering it on Amazon lets you get it for $49.99, a savings of $10. Amazon's preorder guarantee means that even if the price goes back up, you'll pay the lowest possible price between now and when the game actually ships.
