The 20 to 25 hours recorded cover the main story. A Sucker Punch open world invites detours, and the gap between finishing the story and finishing the map is considerable: the previous one, Ghost of Tsushima, easily doubled it.

On the Complete tier, finishing Ghost of Yōtei comes to €53.63 of console time. Playing between 2 am and 8 am, where the hour only counts as half, the same playthrough drops to €26.81. By comparison, a PlayStation 5 Slim has cost €649.99 since 2 April 2026.
Count on the upper end of the range if you are the sort to follow the foxes.
How many evenings, in practice
At three hours an evening, Ghost of Yōtei takes about 7 evenings for the main story, more if you explore. That is the calculation that matters when choosing a tier: the Discovery tier credit covers 30 hours, no expiry.
The game remains at your expense: Ploud rents time on a physical PlayStation 5, never a title. You sign in to your PlayStation Network account, Ghost of Yōtei installs once on the 200 GB reserved for you, and it waits for you from one session to the next. The Ghost of Yōtei without a PS5 page details the service.
20 to 25 h of story, €53.63 of console. Set the slider to your pace.
