In October, the samurai epic will get a story expansion called “Echoes of Sekigahara.” In this context, a comprehensive full version of the action game will also be released.
Anyone who enjoys Soul of the Rams can look forward to getting fresh gameplay material for the foreseeable future. Via the PlayStation Blog , the developer announced not only a full, complete version of the hit action game, but also a new story expansion, Echoes of Sekigahara.
Story add-ons will combine present day and flashbacks to Az’s time on the mainland. Here you will also meet Nagato, a character from Aziz’s past who has now come to Ezo. Now you can explore a previously unknown valley that was once home to the snake and its loyal follower, the viper. However, in the past, you’ll experience Atsumu’s time during the Battle of Sekigahara and key moments in her life before returning to her homeland to seek revenge. Of course, it’s all about new enemies and new heavy weapons, too; you can also expect new armor sets, new colors, and more.
There’s also a new single-player combat survival mode called “Most Wanted” as a variant of the roguelike game. Here you accept bounty orders, start new runs and defeat various opponents. If you do this, you’ll earn bonuses, unlock additional characters, and more.
If you want to use this new content as an opportunity to purchase Soul of the Rams for the first time, you can get the new full version directly. This includes not only the main game, but Echoes of Sekigahara, Most Wanted, and Yotei Tales of Souls. If you buy now, you can play content already available as well as additional content after release. Additionally, all content from the previous Digital Deluxe Edition is available in the game.
The final theme is: story add-ons and Most Wanted will be available starting October 1, 2026. Regular version buyers can upgrade their pre-ordered content to the full version and receive the content of the Digital Deluxe Edition and Polaris Amulet.
Along with the expansion of the story, there will also be a free update on October 1st, adding a new “The Beauty of the Sheep’s Hoof” mode. The scenery of Ezo Island is waiting for you here like a screen saver. There will also be new features to improve usability, including the ability to maintain the appearance of one set of armor while using the stats of another, and new secondary options for high contrast.
