After a new story trailer and the announcement of Ghost of Yōtei Legends for 2026, Sucker Punch has returned to its regular schedule of highlighting the open-world title’s weapons. This time, the focus is on firearms, which are a new addition to the series. However, if these trailers have proven anything, it’s that Atsu is proficient in all kinds of killing.

It starts with a swing-in to a mid-air pistol shot before she transitions to a two-handed musket. Hilariously, the reload animation is in slow-mo, giving the impression of inhuman reload speeds to her enemies. Regardless, the firearms are devastating, taking out targets with a single shot.

From there, Atsu utilizes her dual blades, unleashing a barrage of attacks to break through guards and punish enemies. We’ve seen her using spears as projectiles, but it’s confirmed that she can also throw dropped katanas, further opening up the range of combat possibilities. Those eagle-eyed enough may also spot the mysterious wolf lending a hand (and a paw, and it’s fangs) in the background.

Ghost of Yōtei launches on October 2nd for PS5, and there are even more weapons we’ve yet to see, so stay tuned. You can also check out more details for Legends here.
