    amazing game, beatiful graphics, fun combat, massive open world, tons of collectibles.
    this game is a love letter from the devs to everyone who supported them all these years.
    Worth every penny!

    Simply the best game this year. All the ingredients of a blockbuster. Well done Suckerpunch! Anxious to see some DLC for more content.

    Very beautiful game. The character development (lack there of) and the game play mechanics take you out of the rhythm of the story. Feels like it was rushed.

    A brilliant game, definitely my game of the year so far. The moments of reflection in the game are a nice change, the side quest never feel like busy work. An open world that is gorgeous and makes you want to explore it.

    This game is magic. So much heart and passion was poured into this game. Cements SP as a top tier developer now. But how does this get an 83 when TLOU2 gets a 94 from the media outlets? Anyway an absolute must play for lovers of Japanese cinema, culture, and video games.

    Beautiful game and an excellent job showing a Samurai doing what is right over what the code of honor says. One of those games you truly never want to end and you just hope there is one more mission.

    To say this game pushes the limits of the PS4 is an understatement. What a perfect way to wrap up the console, start to finish this game has been pure magic. The opening sequence gives you goosebumps, the combat makes your heart race, and the story keeps improving as you go. What more could you ask for? All around, this game is nothing short of a masterpiece. Thank you Sucker Punch Prod.

    This game is probably the most fun I've had in an exploration game since Shadow of The colossus back on the ps2.
    The environment is simply breathtaking and pulls you in to a point where you want to go sightseeing.

Ghost of Tsushima does the opposite and says "hey, look at the wind. Maybe you should follow that fox"

    The combat is solid, it's fun and tight, all be it a little repetitive but it's broken up by stealth sections, stand offs, duels and all out battles so you never feel burned out before the next battle begins.

    The only issues I've had so far are very minor, random tutorials in the late game and bad lip syncing for the Japanese dub, nothing major but sometimes breaks the immersion. Lastly it would be the fact that it's PlayStation exclusive. This wouldn't be a problem for me as I've used PlayStation for over ten years, however a recent dispute with Sony over their terms of service cost me that account and all my previous games. Still, Ghost of Tsushima is fantastic and is probably the closest to an action samurai game there ever will be. Or a tour of ancient Japan for that matter    … Expand

Not expecting much, I bought it on a whim because it had something I enjoyed as a young teen-- Japanese culture and samurai. I am VERY glad I did in the end because of the breathtaking scenery, magnificent gameplay, and engaging story.

    The scenery is BEAUTIFUL in this game. The leaves falling to the ground around you as you duel against samurai had me loving every second of the environment. You can tell Sucker Punch made this game as an ode to old Samurai movies. The inspiration you can feel from the different elements from the snow covered mountains to the yellow tinted leaves. The only problem I had with it was a few glitches from time to time and phasing through certain areas.

    The gameplay is so much fun! The biggest draw for me in the beginning of the game was the gameplay. The different elements create a variety of ways you can engage in combat-- sneaking, duels, and my personal favorite was the Ghost Stance mechanic. This new feature made me want to stay away from getting injured as much as possible. The open world aspect is probably the best I have seen-- I enjoyed just running around and doing sidequests. At no point did they feel like sidequests to me because of how they managed to create the quests. There were only a few points where I was starting to get bored with it, but then I would just go back and do the main quest for a bit only to return to side quests a while later. The biggest problem with the gameplay was the camera. In tight corners the camera can def get wonky.

    The story was beautifully written and was a huge draw for me. The story reminds me so much of old samurai flicks. Yuna and Lord Shimura were fantastic foil characters in contrast to Jin. My favorite parts revolve around the ideas of which way Jin will progress-- become more barbaric in the way he kills or keep his Samurai honor. All the characters are really fleshed out (as long as you do their side quests). I would say Ishikawa-sensei was the weakest when it came to the personal story-- Norio and Masako being the strongest.

    Overall the story is fantastic, the characters are engaging, the gameplay is fun, and the graphics are beautiful.

And it removed the bad taste in my mouth from the last of us 2 and restored my faith in good enjoyable games! (probably never gonna restore my faith in naughty dog though, never buying one of their games again) While the game did some things PERFECTLY! It did do som other things at a mediocre level and I totally get it!! A game that beautiful, that good, that fun and enjoyable on such old hardware is bound to have some sacrifices The combat was superb! At the beginning i thought it may benefit from a lockon on different characters but after finishing the game I understand why they didn't The samurai combat is fluid and strong and you frequently one shot enemys and need the ability to move around more

    One thing i did find kind of hilarious is that the AI for enemys Isent that great but it gets better later on! I played the game on the hard difficulty and even then it felt really easy (this is probably because i do all the side quests first) The armour is also beautiful! Such nice designs and progression and dyes!
    This game could benefit from a more in-depth merchant-customer interaction other than upgrading your swords and bows - simmilar to the witcher 3 but not as big and indepth! The side quests felt like main missions on their own and i loved them!
    The main story was also AMAZING with a fantastic ending!! BUT! They could of definitely made it better! Alot better! Just little things!
    The flash backs with your uncle were such a nice touch and if those were implemented with other characters like ryuzo or your father it would of been great! A little more in touch with the story If the main story had built up a little more suspense it would of been fantastic!


    Honestly this game and how it was handled is a 10/10 for me, right up there with horizon zero dawn and god of war and sekiro and red dead redemption Its worth the price tag (this is one of the only games i say that about) Do not hesitate in buying it because you will love it, play it on hard difficulty for more enjoyment A few minority have said the game is racist This game is not racist and does not force any racist or political agendas (like the last of us 2) The Japanese people absolutely love this game (sold out there), the western people love this game, its depiction is respectful and does justice to japans beauty and history This is humanities history and having an interest in humanities history gives you the right to delve in and make the past a reality through a video game

    Do not make up problems when there aren't any.

    Great work sucker punch! You're at the top of my list! Creating a sequel on the ps5 would be incredible though (im already excited for horizon zero dawn! Lets hope they dont butcher it like the last of us 2) Im not sure how you'd structure a story after that ending but i'd love to see your try! Maybe going to the mainland? On shogun territory itself?
    Or maybe the game dosent need a sequel at all!    … Expand

    Sucker Punch has absolutely out done themselves. It's not unfair to call Ghost of Tsushima one of the best looking games of the generation, or one of the best looking games Sony's ever put out. It's beautiful in ways that are a bit more subtle than the slightly over done anime style of something like FF7R while still being fantastic.

It's beautiful in ways that are a bit more subtle than the slightly over done anime style of something like FF7R while still being fantastic. I really can't say enough nice things about Ghost of Tsushima. It's a lovingly authentic tribute to chanbara cinema in general, and the works of Akira Kurosawa in particular.

    With a very enjoyable combat system backing an excellent series of stories there's a lot of narrative depth in the game that it feels like gaming hasn't approached in awhile. There's a lack of comic relief in the game compared to other games in it's genre and weight class, but it's absence isn't felt thanks to the down time provided by the many other activities in the game. Going from furious and tense battles against the invading Mongol army or against bandits or wandering ronin, to doing something a bit more peaceful such as composing a haiku, following a fox to a hidden shrine, or just traversing the lovingly crafted world that Sucker Punch has provided is relaxing in a way that I haven't felt since Breath of the Wild, which also very effectively used down time to relax the player.

    With emotional, deeply personal writing, intelligent, insightful characters and some rather solid moral questions to ask both it's protagonist and you the player, it's no surprise that the game was an actual tear jerker at times. That's quality emotional impact right there.

    I don't think it's unfair to say there's something for everyone in Ghost and I have any complaints it's that it doesn't stick around long enough. Here's hoping there's some Witcher 3 style expansion packs. With this game as a crowning gem on the twilight of this generation, I'm very interested to see what the dawn brings (beyond Cyberpunk 2077).

    Not a perfect game, but still a "masterpiece". This easily is my second favourite PS4 exclusive just below God of War. Pure fun, tight fighting gameplay, humble yet epic story and probably the best soundtrack in recent game history. There's room for a lot of improvement such as facial animation, cutscenes, stealth AI, etc. Can't wait for a sequel.

    The story, while a Japanese feudal period archetype, is presented well, and keeps the players' interest. The characters also allows the players to be invested in them.

    Sucker Punch delivers an amazing 13th century Japan, and one can tell they have great respect for Japanese culture and samurai cinema. The dev also respects the player and the player's time. No unnecessary animations for each item pickup. Loading times are ridiculously short (~5 seconds). Guiding wind and other fox/bird companions are done very creatively, and results in an immersive world.

    Highest recommendation for the game! Now, time for me to go write some haiku...    … Expand

    This Game is a Whole Masterclass.

    I need to say that i was a bit Scared about this Game cause the more i saw it looked like an Assasins Creed in Old Japan. But Holy **** this Game is Miles Better than any of the Current AC´s.

    I need to say that i was a bit Scared about this Game cause the more i saw it looked like an Assasins Creed in Old Japan. But Holy **** this Game is Miles Better than any of the Current AC´s. In Every Way.

    The Graphics is for me a 9/10. The Game works with Insane Good Lightings and a gives the Game a Very Very Good Looking when ur Riding ur Horse or Running. But i need to Say that the Game is Based to looked good in Fast Movement. Cause of the Impressive Lightning Combined with everything on the Grass is Moving or Trees + in my Opinion a Lot of Wettness on the Ground. But when u take a Look on the Ground in Camps or Areas u see that its a but Meh. Which means it doenst Look that good, on This Things also the Characters besides the Main Characters from the Different Story Types also the Clothing from Normal NPC looks a bit Muddy sometimes. If i need to Rate it Between other Game i Would say its on a LvL of GoW which is for me 3rd. Behind RDR2 (2) and TLOU2 (1).

    The Atmosphere and Music are Good Mix overall i liked it and it never feeled to much or Stupid. U get this Samurai Feeling All the Time so a classy 10/10.

    The Story for me is Good. But it has the Same Problem which every Open World Game has. Cause im a Player who makes Many Side Quest and Stuff the Story gets Loss besides it. The Story was Good but i never got an Emotional Impact or feeled like "Holy **** for me a 8/10.

    The Open World is full with Activities which Really Make Fun. The Map also isnt complete Overfulled with Dog**** Side Stuff Like in Ubsoft Games or so. The Quest Makes Fun even to Follow The Foxes or get the Shrines is Good. It overall dont Feel to much it is a Perfekt Fitting. 10/10.

    The Game dont has a HUD so u cant just Click a Point on a Card and see how ur Running towords this Point. The thing with the Wind is a New and Very Good Choice SuckerPunch did here. It also dont feels like a **** thing or that u need to Long to Achive a Point on the Map its Really Really Good Made.

    Character Customizations are Ok u Can Chance ur Armor, Mask, Hat, the Katana & Dagger Skin also the Bow Skin. Its Okay nothing so Special but still Fine 8/10.

    In This Game u dont Have a Grinding System like u have in AC that the Higher u go the Harder the Enemies are. The Game is Based that u Shoulöd Feel how Powerful a Katana is. And that is the Best Decission SP can have Done Her. I cant Imagin how Sad it Must be Feel to have a Katana and cant Compete Against the same Enemies only cause thei are 5 Lvls a Head or so. It Just Feels Real and Impactful.

    What i need to Critics are the Cutscenes, not cause thei feel Wrong Placed are so the Completly Fine. But idk the Cutscenes Feel so "Cheap" It doesnt Feel like Year 2020. Thei are a bit Out of Time if u Compare them to TLOU2 or Red Dead Redemption 2. The "Intro" and the "Outro" of the Cutscenes as i said feel a Bit Cheap in my Opinions.. 8/10.

    What i overall Miss a bit but well thats not a Big Deal in the Games At the Moment only RDR2 & TLOU2 made Them which i Realized was the Character Mimic. That u can see how a Character Feel. When he Talks about his Family Died or so. The Face Looks Permanently the Same. But i dont Give a Score for that. Cause not Much Games even Improved that.

    I Need to Give 1 Bonus Points for the Very Good Synchro and the Insane Good Looking Armours and Masks. In my German Synchro i had 1 Issue that when Ur Jumping the Sounds Jin Gives are the Japanes Sound that doenst Fit the Synchro that Well but that a Small Issue i have. Overall is the Synchro Perfekt.

    If ur a Trophy Hunter the Platin is very Easy and not Ginding **** Like other Open World Games.

    From my Side its a 9.2/10. Which means a 9 on Metacritic. i Hade Good i guess Arround 60 Hours until my Platin Trophy, and never got Bored.

    Graphics & visuals in this game have to be some of the best I've seen to come out of the PS4 Pro. The way the wind makes the grass and flowers sway is stuff I've rarely seen this generation. A lot of effort and thought was put into them.

    The story in this game is really good with funny and sad moments. Many of the allies and companions along the way are relatable and interesting to learn about.

    All the side activities are fun to complete and gain that 100% platinum trophy (which I got)

    Ghost of Tsushima is a flawed, but fun, game. While the gameplay itself was solid, and the story was decent, I definitely expected a lot more from Sony’s final PlayStation 4 exclusive. It had enough to keep me hooked, but lacked the polish we’ve all grown to love from a Sony first party game.

    Ultimately, it feels like the game could have benefited from a smaller scope or a more linear structure. Focus on the duels could have created a more engrossing product, especially if it honed in on the narrative for a more concise and cinematic experience. But as it stands, Ghost of Tsushima is another AAA open world title and doesn’t seek to define itself as anything other than that.
