Overview

Nariaki Saito is a named supporting character in *Ghost of Yōtei*, the single-player action-adventure set in Ezo around Mount Yōtei. His page covers his verified role within Atsu’s story and distinguishes him from other characters associated with the Saito name.

Nariaki Saito belongs to the character cast of *Ghost of Yōtei*. He is treated as a supporting figure rather than the game’s central protagonist: the single-player campaign follows Atsu, while Nariaki’s importance comes from his place within the surrounding narrative and its named character relationships.

The character should be distinguished from Lord Saitō, one of the Yōtei Six. Similar names do not establish that Nariaki and Lord Saitō are the same person, relatives, allies, or enemies; those relationships require explicit story evidence.

Nariaki’s overview is therefore narrower than Atsu’s or a major target’s. It identifies him within the game’s character roster without assigning an unsupported faction, occupation, weapon, first appearance, or fate. Details about his appearances and relationships belong in the corresponding sections of this page when verified.

This page uses the *Ghost of Yōtei* base single-player campaign as its continuity. It does not merge Nariaki Saito with characters from *Ghost of Tsushima*, the separate Most Wanted multiplayer mode, or another historical interpretation of the Saito name.
