No Mission Replays in Ghost Of Yotei
Nate Fox, the Co-Creative Director of the PS5 exclusive game, confirmed in an interview with MinnMax that the Ghost of Yotei won’t have the feature to replay missions. He was clear with a ‘no’ when prompted with questions about this feature.
He did not elaborate further on this when he was asked about it at around the 1:10 mark, during the interview on the YouTube Channel of MinnMax. Clearly, this leaves no room for any other interpretation.
Why the Replay Missions feature matters for fans
This is a definite confirmation of the absence of the mission replay feature in Ghost of Yotei had initially left fans a little puzzled because they enjoy revisiting their favourite missions and key story moments using this feature.
However, after the launch, an update was added by Sucker Punch that lets the players re-tackle the outposts (camps) and duels by selecting them on the map.
Even in Ghost of Tsushima, the feature to replay missions was not a part of the gaming experience. The Replay mission feature has been mostly tied to the New Game Plus mode in
Ghost of Tsushima, which basically allowed gamers a second run through the storyline, rather than giving them an option of individual mission replays.

It might just mean that Nate Fox may be drawing a line between the quests of the core story and other optional combat challenges.
What can players of Ghost of Yotei expect going forward
Though the replay mission feature is not available in the Ghost of Yotei game, that does not mean that all kinds of repeatable content that were available have been stopped.
Camps or duels might come back in newer and different forms. One thing is for sure, though, as per Fox’s statement, players should not be too hopeful about a full mission replay system.
It appears that with Ghost of Yotei, Sucker Punch has forward thinking in mind and wants to give the players newer experiences and journeys instead of just replays for story material.
Fans remain excited for the upcoming release
Despite the confirmation of no mission replays in Ghost Of Yotei, fans of the game remain excited for what this new game will offer them in terms of a new protagonist, stunning visuals, and a story set in the 1600s of Japan.
For now, with the release date coming up in October 2025, the fans do have something new to look forward to.
Whether this decision will enhance the overall gaming experience is something that time will tell.
For those who love playing re-plays, make sure this time, you make the first time count.
