At the end of this week, players will finally get a chance to explore Sucker Punch's much-anticipated follow-up to Ghost of Tsushima, Ghost of Yotei. But judging from the massive size of Ghost of Yotei's day-one patch, you may want to make sure you're up to date before searching the areas around Mount Yotei.

Sony has confirmed that the Version 1.006 patch will give Ghost of Yotei several important fixes, including ray tracing and performance improvements, as well as animation, gameplay, and environmental adjustments.
