Sony will have gorgeous PlayStation 5 bundles for Ghost of Yōtei
Ghost of Yōtei is one of Sony's bigger AAA releases this year, and the company is marking the upcoming launch with gorgeous bundles of its current consoles. There are two versions of the themed bundle, each giving an aesthetic nod to a form of Japanese art. The version inspired by kintsugi shows the artwork of Mt. Yōtei in gold, while the black version takes cues from the ink brustwork of Sumi-e. The images have been applied to the disc drive version of the PlayStation 5, and of course also come with a DualSense controller and a digital copy of the game. The controller, which has a stylized portrait of protagonist Atsu on the touchpad that matches the black or gold of the console, can also be purchased separately. The company's also selling the gold version as a cover that existing owners of a PlayStation 5 or a PlayStation 5 Pro. And if our sleuthing is correct, this seems to be the first time Sony's released a cover for the beefier version of the console. The October 2 release date for Ghost of Yōtei is when these limited-edition versions will be available. Sony hasn't shared any pricing info and only says that pre-ordering details will come at a later date.
