Thanks to Grand Theft Auto VI, the game’s release and release dates have been a little in the air recently. In fact, they are very in the air, with many upcoming titles in place, and they are launching GTA IV releases earlier or around.
Sucker Punch and PlayStation has announced that Tsushima’s sequel, Ghost of Yōtei, will officially be released on October 2, 2025.
The news broke in the form of a new trailer detailing the list of Onurya. It is also known as the list of targets our new protagonist, ATSU, is trying to eliminate under the name of vengeance.
Mafia: It’s a very interesting time for these announcements as The Old Country chose an early release date on August 8, 2025. The game is developed by Hangar 13, but is published by 2K Games, which has the same parent company as Rockstar Games.
This could mean that you want to pump up the surrounding titles first to make way for the GTA VI. However, at the time of writing, I’m still waiting for another update from Rockstar Games.
But I’m not going to make it all about the GTA VI. No matter how you cut it, it’s great to see the release train rolling around. It’s great if this provides the sparks that other publishers and developers need to start the game within this window.
