During the early stages of Ghost of Yotei, when players do not have a lot of Coins on them, the bounties help out quite a bit. Some of these bounties are pretty straightforward, as they involve going to a location and fighting the target there. However, some of these bounties might require Atsu to investigate the areas and perform certain actions that will lure out the target for her to deal with.
The Smiling Yoshitomo is one of the first few bounties that players can pick up, and the guide below shows a full walkthrough for it in Ghost of Yotei.
Smiling Yoshitomo Bounty Guide in Ghost of Yotei
How to Start Smiling Yoshitomo Bounty in Ghost of Yotei
To start this bounty, you need to play through the first few sections of the game, which involve defeating the Snake, visiting your old home, and making your way to the Inn close by. After the small encounter with the enemies, you can interact with the Bounty Board outside the Inn the next day. Kojiro, the NPC sitting next to the board, is the person who will pay out the rewards of the Bounty. As you complete bounties, more will be added, rewarding a large amount of Coins and additional rewards with them.
Where to Find Smiling Yoshitomo in Ghost of Yotei
After accepting the Bounty, open up your map and make your way to Tranquil Falls, which is located to the south of this region. Once you reach the area, look slightly north to find the Weary Traveller’s Camp. There are a bunch of items you can interact with to investigate the area. There is also Sake you can grab, but doing all of this is not necessary. What you do have to do, though, is interact and build a fire.
If this is your first time setting up a camp, the game will show you how to do everything. You will first need to aim for the balls of tinder and swipe up on the touchpad. After that, you can aim a steady breath towards the tinder using the R2 button to make a fire. After that, you have to cook a fish, and while eating it, you will be interrupted by a Settler dressed in white. He will talk about the Smiling Yoshitomo, and to no one’s surprise, he is the bounty target.
Kill Yoshitomo, and as a reward, you will get the Smiling Kabuto-Mushi, which is a weapon kit, and you can turn in the bounty to get 750 Coins.
If you are finding this fight difficult, you can change the difficulty at no cost, as there are no trophies for difficulties in this game.
