Sucker Punch just dropped a massive update during the latest State of Play, and fans of the original *Ghost of Tsushima* have a lot to be excited about. **Ghost of Yōtei Legends** is officially coming on **March 10** as part of the 1.5 patch, and the best part is that it is completely free for everyone who owns the base game.

This isn't just a minor add-on. Legends is a full-scale online co-op mode where you and your friends can take on supernatural, monstrous versions of the **Yōtei Six**. From giant spiders to mystical oni, the stakes are much higher than the grounded story of the main game.

### New Ways to Play: Survival and Story

The expansion launches with three core mission types designed to test your teamwork:

- **Survival (4 Players):** You and three teammates will defend four different maps against waves of increasingly difficult enemies. You will need to hold your ground to activate **Blessings**, which give you a combat edge. If you lose a zone, a **Curse** is unleashed, making the fight much harder.
- **Story & Incursions (2–4 Players):** There are 12 story missions built for pairs. Once you finish a set of three, you unlock an **Incursion**. These are four-player assaults on strongholds that end in epic boss fights against the Spider, the Oni, the Kitsune, or the Snake.
- **The Raid (Coming in April):** If you are looking for the ultimate challenge, the Raid arrives a month after launch. This is where you will face off against the Dragon and Lord Saito himself.

### Meet the Four Classes

You can choose a role that fits your playstyle. While everyone can use basic katanas and bows, each class has a specialized weapon:

1. **Samurai:** The frontline tank who can wield the massive **ōdachi**.
2. **Archer:** The long-range specialist who also carries a **yari** (spear) for close encounters.
3. **Mercenary:** A utility-focused fighter who dual-wields **katanas**.
4. **Shinobi:** The master of stealth who uses the iconic **kusarigama**.

### More Than Just Combat

When you aren't out hunting monsters, the new **Legends Lobby** gives you a place to breathe. You can practice your archery, challenge friends to a game of **Zeni Hajiki**, or try to top the leaderboard in **Bamboo Strike**.

As you level up, you will earn loot, Legendary gear, and unique armor cosmetics to show off your achievements. And yes, **Photo Mode** is back, so you can capture those perfectly timed squad shots before the next wave hits.
