  • Ghost of Yōtei Update 1.008 was released October 3, focusing on bug fixes and stability.

Sucker Punch released Update 1.008 for Ghost of Yōtei today, aiming to put to rest the remaining bugs players encountered after the previous hotfix.

One of the more noticeable fixes targets the Zeni Hajiki mini-game, where coins would vanish beneath the table texture—though still interactable, this made the mini-game frustrating. The patch ensures coins no longer sink under the table.

Beyond that, the update includes “additional gameplay bugs reported after the last hotfix” and “other minor stability and gameplay fixes” (though detailed patch notes are currently limited).

This is part of Sucker Punch’s ongoing commitment to refining Ghost of Yōtei. Earlier, the day-one patch (Version 1.006) addressed a broad spectrum of issues: performance and stability improvements, camera and UI tweaks, bug fixes in mini-games (including bamboo chop and Zeni Hajiki), preventing horses from interrupting missions or cutscenes, and balancing changes for late-game weapons and charms.

Players continuing to spot oddities (glitches, stability hitches, UI overlaps) should see gradual improvement with successive updates. The developers show clear attention to player feedback, opting for immediate bug resolution rather than letting issues linger between major updates.
