Ghost of Yotei star Erika Ishii recently revealed their top three favorite games of all time, featuring The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Return of the Obra Dinn, and The Last of Us.
As the gaming community continues to explore the world of Sucker Punch's recent PlayStation 5 exclusive, the lead actor bringing the protagonist to life is sharing a bit of personal gaming history. In a recent interview with Game Rant, Erika Ishii, who portrays the vengeance-driven warrior Atsu in Ghost of Yotei, sat down to discuss the interactive titles that have left the biggest mark on their life. Beyond starring in massive console releases, Ishii is well-known across streaming and digital culture for appearances on platforms like Dropout and Critical Role. Their personal gaming tastes reflect a deep appreciation for the unique storytelling power that video games hold compared to other entertainment mediums.
Ishii's top three list spans distinct eras and styles, starting with a classic Nintendo GameCube adventure. They highlighted The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker for its emotional impact and the bold artistic risk Nintendo took with its cel-shaded visual design, noting that it was a deeply comforting experience when they played it. The selection also ventures into brilliant indie design with Return of the Obra Dinn, which Ishii praised for delivering a purely interactive mystery that could not possibly exist in any other format. Rounding out the trifecta is Naughty Dog's narrative powerhouse, The Last of Us, cementing a lineup that balances grand platform adventures, innovative deduction puzzles, and cinematic storytelling.
