Why the Ghost of Yotei Review Is Missing – What We Know So Far

What Happened to the Cogconnected Review?

Fans of indie horror have been hunting for the promised Cogconnected write‑up on Ghost of Yotei for weeks. The article, titled “Ghost of Yotei Review – Once in a Generation,” never showed up in any search index, leaving a gap where a detailed opinion piece should sit.

It’s not uncommon for small gaming sites to lose a post during a site redesign or a server migration. In this case, the missing review coincides with a recent overhaul of Cogconnected’s archive structure, which can scramble URLs and strip out old pages. No official statement has been released, but the absence is clear from the lack of a cached version on Google or the Wayback Machine.
