Ghost of Yotei, Sucker Punch’s upcoming 2025 samurai title, has successfully booted past its menus on PC via the experimental SharpEmu PS5 emulator. Developer Foued shared footage showing protagonist Atsu navigating a 3D environment, though the video was sped up. Real performance is reportedly just 1 to 2 FPS, accompanied by geometry and texture errors.
A separate screenshot reveals a boss fight against The Snake running at 10.9 FPS on an RTX 4090 and Ryzen 7 7800X3D, with rendering issues still present. Meanwhile, AnyPS5, a porting tool that relinks PS5 executables, lags behind at 3.4 frames per minute. This progress follows Marvel's Wolverine reaching 20 FPS on KytyPS5, which also ran GTA 5 at 60 FPS.
Emulator momentum has grown since Sony reportedly scrapped a planned PC port for Ghost of Yotei. While a playable build remains distant, rapid emulator advancements suggest improvements may come quickly.
