Featured reviews
Amazing game the combat is top notch, the graphics are right up there! The setting in Japan with the art work is truly beautiful! Story so far been really good to, contender for game of the year! One of my favourite exclusives now! Hope suckerpunch bring some DLC or create another samurai game after this, first game in a while that I want to 100%
I just finished it today and all i can say is that the game is really enjoyable and fun although nothing i havent seen before or that hasnt been done. The game doesnt quite feel like a 2020 PS exclusive in terms of graphics and animations. But then again after you play God of War and The Last of Us Part 2 is kinda hard to go back and appreciate normal games such as this. The story is really good because its simple, the good old "protagonist is the best and wins everytime". What makes this game really shine are the landscapes and combat that are very well put together. I encourage everyone to try this game! You wont regret it. Its a strong contestant for GOTY.
I wanted to write this review as honest as i could.
Ok, so I got Ghost of Tsushima last night and have played today. I dont know exactly what to say other than WOW. A game that captures and expresses so much more than just experience. Its oozing with culture, history, dynamic, beauty, wisdom ... its everything I love about japan and have always loved in a journey I can stroll through on my own terms, at my own speed. Ive spent most of the day in aww, taking screen shots and making notes of the beautiful ways of the Japanese tradition, Shinto, Samaria and the shear respect they have for mother nature. Truly inspired, truly touched and I stand in silence at just how amazing the gaming world has become. Escapism with education, culture and endless creative touches for all of us to experience in our own way. Beautiful ...
This game is almost perfection-- everything from the ultra-realistic renderings of Japan to the combat to the acting is incredible. I also love the story and Jin's conflicted nature about the rogue element of his combat style.
The main villains' barbarity was portrayed well. In one of my favorite games, Medieval Total War 2, and during the Medieval era the Mongols were the most ruthless enemies you could battle. Historically, they were such an existential threat that warring provinces in Eastern Europe called a truce with each other and banded together to drive them back to Asia.
People have complained about this game's repetitiveness. Yes, sometimes the combat is somewhat repetitive, but to me it's the GOOD kind of repetitive. I'm not annoyed by it.
Whenever I want to complete every task in a game you know that it has attained legendary status. I posted a "top twenty video games" list on my blog last year with games that ranged from the '80s to today. Now I want to revise it to include Ghost on it.

The visuals are breathtaking the story is great the combat is excellent. The stances add a whole new element to the open world genre.

- TriviaThere is a mode in Ghost of Tsushima called "Kurosawa Mode" named after the acclaimed Japanese director Akira Kurosawa. The game developers, Sucker Punch Productions, offered the Kurosawa estate an advance copy of the game in order to gain permission to use his name. On playing the game, the estate granted their blessing. Kurosawa Mode turns your video game into a grainy black-and-white film, and the end result is very much like playing a video game based on the director's iconic classic, Seven Samurai (1954).
- GoofsSince this game takes place during the first Mongol invasion of Japan in 1274, weapons (katana, wakizashi, hwacha) and techniques weren't present in real life until at least a century later.
