How to Get a Horse in Ghost of Yotei

In Ghost of Yotei, Atsu begins her journey with a horse that has no name, but players have the opportunity to change this and forge a deeper bond with their steed. Much like Jin's horse in Ghost of Tsushima, Atsu's companion can be a true partner on her quest. However, the process for selecting and naming your horse is a bit different this time around.This guide will walk you through the necessary steps to get a new horse, give it a name, and unlock the "Naming a Friend" trophy.

Ghost of Yotei: How to Get a Horse

How to Unlock the "Old Trails" Quest

The ability to choose and name your horse is tied to the "Old Trails" side quest. To begin this quest, you must first return to Atsu's childhood home in the Yotei Grasslands, near Lake Shikotsu.

• Once you're at her home, hold down the Touch Pad on your controller to enter a flashback.
• In this memory, you'll be playing as a young Atsu. Go to the right of the entrance where you'll find her brother digging in the dirt.
• Interact with him to start a conversation where Atsu mentions how her father will take her to the stables.
• After the dialogue, hold the Touch Pad again to return to the present. The "Old Trails" quest will now be unlocked and can be tracked from your map.

Following the "Old Trails" Quest

Now that the quest is active, you'll need to follow it to the OldStables, which are located in the southeast region of Shikotsu Woods.

• Travel west from Atsu's home until you arrive at the Old Stables.
• You will find two of Saito's Outlaws harassing a horse. Defeat these enemies.
• Once the outlaws are dealt with, the horse will lead you back toward the empty stables.
• There, you will find a settler. Speak with him to trigger a new combat encounter against more of Saito's Outlaws.
• After the enemies are gone, speak to the settler again and follow him into an open field. This will trigger another flashback, this time with Atsuand her father.
• In this memory, you will need to track a group of horses. Look for horse manure and follow the muddy trail to the right.
• The trail will lead you to a cliff that you need to climb. Once at the top, use the whistle by pressing Left on the D-Pad.
• This will conclude the flashback, and you will return to the present with a choice of three different horses.

Choosing Your Horse and Giving It a Name

When you return to the present, a beautiful cinematic will play, and you will be presented with a choice of three horses:

• White (your current horse)
• Black
• Dappler (mottled gray)

For players who own the Digital Deluxe Edition of the game, a Brown horse will also be available as an option.

It's important to note that this choice is permanent. All the horses haveidentical stats and no functional differences. The decision is purelycosmetic, so choose the one you like the look of most. Once you select a horse, you cannot swap it for another later in the game.

After choosing your horse, you will be prompted to give it a name from three options:

• Shimaki ("Tornado")
• Mochizuki ("Full Moon")
• Homura ("Flame")

Select the name that you feel best fits your horse and your journey.Confirming your choice will finalize your selection and unlock the"Naming a Friend" Bronze Trophy, sealing the bond between Atsu and hernew companion.

For those who are curious about the other horses,you can return to the Old Stables at any point to visit the horses youdid not choose and see how they are doing.

To summon your horse at any time in the game, simply press Left on the D-Pad. The horse is invincible and will spawn behind you, ready to help you on your quest.
