    Great expansion but a bit short. It has a great story with a good conclusion for Jin Sakai but is with some improvements more of the same. You can start the story early in the second act of the main game but I waited until I finished the main story. Story: You come around a coast village were the Mongols hold prisoners.

It has a great story with a good conclusion for Jin Sakai but is with some improvements more of the same. You can start the story early in the second act of the main game but I waited until I finished the main story. Story: You come around a coast village were the Mongols hold prisoners. When you fight them you encounter a shaman whose chants enhance the other Mongols fighting abilities. What is even more scary you encounter prisoners that are driven insane by visions and even a case where a woman bite off her tongue. There is a rumor that on the near Island of Iki the Mongol named “The Eagle” is performing strange rituals that cause insanity. So Jin decided to stop the Mongols and travels to Iki before this spreat to Tsushima. This is also a travel to the past as his father died on Iki trying to liberated it for the ruler while young Jin proved himself as warrior. A great set up and the story fully delivers up to the fitting conclusion. Like I said it is sadly a bit short. However there is a new interesting twist that kept my interest but cant spoil here. Gameplay wise it is more of the same with some improvements. Mongols are now empowered by shamans, can switch fighting styles and are smarter when alerted (search back to back without being close enough for group assassinations for example). There are new abilities, equipment and challenges. If you liked the main game than this is a good addition. The new characters work well but are also less flashed out than their main game counterparts. The graphics are again beautiful and the locations look amazing. The soundtrack is fitting and enhances the atmosphere. Like the main game it is a great presentation and experience. Overall I am satisfied by the expansion but lower the rating a bit because it is shorter. It took me not long to finish it. Maybe a bigger challenge if I started earlier.… Expand

    If you enjoyed the base game, then Ghost of Tsushima: Iki Island is a must-play. A natural extension of the sorrowful saga of Jin Sakai, Ghost of Tsushima: Iki Island impresses with its exploration of both a new world and old scars. An awe-inspiring journey through trauma and guilt that is ultimately resolved by facing fears, Ghost of Tsushima: Iki Island can be completed in a weekend but will resonate with players for a lifetime.
