    An amazing well designed game. Sucker punch production amaze you with its graphical details in every point of the game. The open world concept is well thought and has Been executed very well. My only complain was with a few minor glitches and NPC movements which im sure will be fixed in future updates.

The world is detailed and gorgeous with some insane draw distances for a console game , although close up there a few issues with low res / blurry textures. The combat is addictive and nice to see does something different to the usual lock on stuff every other modern game uses. It generally does make you feel like an all powerful warrior. Although it does get repetitive and is a bit to easy at times. The AI in combat does not hold back and is aggressive. The stealth gameplay is not the best and uses the typical tropes from other games. The Ai in the stealth components are also extremely dumb. However this is made up by a gripping story that’s well written. Its probably one of the best interpretations of feudal japan to date. However if you’re the type of gamer who needs none stop action this is probably not the game for you. I also ran into a few bugs and glitches that need fixing. Expand

    Amazing. I played 4 hrs at release, and 16 hrs the next day. I'm an old gamer, And I completely lose track of time in this game, it has me intrested and engaged.

    The gameplay is marvelous, actually I’ve never played a game this good in swordplay and the story was very good and cinematic (if anyone watched a classical samurai movie and liked it, should buy this game), although there was some issues such as the AI and some issues in parkour but it worth the price and the time

    If you liked Witcher 3, Assassin's Creed, or Horizon Zero Dawn...then you will love this game. This game is a step above those games.

    Visually beautiful---maybe the best looking PS4 (non PC) looking game ever.

    Story is fun, even side quests give you a different fun adventure.

    Characters are lovable. (I only wish there would have been some romance in the story).

    Great gameplay, similar to Witcher 3, Assassin's Creed, and Horizon Zero Dawn...only with a Samari slant.

    The Picture mode is the best ever, you can get lost for another 10 hours going around the map taking pictures.

    The enemies are sort of hard, but not too hard. Just when I get over confident and feel like I am invincible, I get massacred by some low level grunt.

    AND THE BEST THING...Load Times are literally 2-3 seconds. WHAT!!! Yes, load times are like 2-3 seconds and when you die it takes you right back to the spot where you died. You don't have to play the entire section over to get back to the point you died at.

    The music and sound is perfect and very beautiful and peaceful.

    Huge map, maybe takes about 40-50 hours if you visit every site.

    And the tracking system with the wind and leaves and birds and foxes is just so innovative and magical.

    Did I mention the cool Japanese/Samari clothes and hats you can wear.

    Really anyone who loves this style of game and gameplay will love this game. You can go gangbusters in and destroy enemies face to face, or stealth around and assassinate them, jump from roof tops or even jump from your horse to assassinate an enemy, or just bow and arrow them to death, you got explosives and fire bombs and just cool finishing moves with lots of blood, or throw some firecrackers to just stealth right around them. So many many ways to have "FUN" you will never get bored.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the most repetitive games I have ever played. Every single quest is almost identical. Pick it up, run to a spot, fight a bunch of Mongols or Bandits or Straw Hats, turn in. There is a quest mid game with Yuriko that goes on for over an hour and doesn’t let you skip all of her awful dialogue, doesn’t let you run or gallop 90% of the time, and is just downright cringe the entire time. It is basically a one hour stay at an old folks’ home listening to a stranger and having no ability to go anywhere the entire time. It was literally the worst quest I’ve ever played in 30+ years of gaming.

    There are dozens of little places to clear and they are almost all copy/pastes. The first few are fun, but it gets old very quickly. The lock on without lock on is absolutely awful. You have no control over it but there is a lock on and you will regularly attack targets you do not intend to.

    Lastly the controls: awful and great. They nailed stances much better than Nioh. Sadly they completely boffed up the utility abilities. I think it is mostly just a limitation of the junk controller that Sony puts out. Maybe PS5 will be much more intuitive.

    Graphics are great. Story is so-so. The writers should have written out timelines for each character. Some of them have so many different “I was in this awful situation for years...” that they’d have to be twice as old as presented in game. They also tossed in a lot of immersion breaking SJW trash. Gay guy misses his dead lover that had a wife and kids. A main character has a lesbian relatIonship, is in her 60s, and fights better than almost all men in the game. 1/2 of the boss encounters that are not Mongols are females, in ancient Japan. Almost every town leader is a female as well. It just wreaks of Anita Sarkeesian’s opinions.

    I give it a 4. It is playable and has its fun moments, but it goes on twice as long as is tolerable with its very limited variety of quests and settings. The graphics are amazing for a PS4 but do not compare to what many PC games give you these days. Mostly the game is getting hype because people are bored to tears. Oh, and it is way too easy. The combat is never challenging even on hard.

    Finished it today. The main story is really good, and almost redeems many flaws.

    The graphics are so damn good. Every 5 minutes I found myself stopping to take in the view and snapping pics from the great photo mode, which offer a lot of creative options. The combat system really shines on hard mode, at first you'll find yourself dying a lot, but it makes you wanna be better and after you master the way of the samurai, you'll feel so cool when they can't even touch you. And even cooler when you wipe away the blood from your blade and put it away graciously.
    Finally the atmosphere and immersion this game offers is masterful, riding your horse in the fields while epic Japanese music is playing, really is one the best feelings ever. I can't remember a time when I enjoyed a game so much. Thank you Sucker Punch for the amazing game! 10/10

It's not perfect in some areas - the combat camera in close quarters or where theres a fence can break the ability to fight properly, and some of the targeting of animals like dogs and boars seems off.

    Outside that, the polish on narrative, the sword combat, and the majestic beauty of the world is outstanding. You feel a sense of connection with the protagonist as you shape yourself into a reborn mongol killing machine. This is a game that - if you like open world, action adventure or samurai themed games - should be on your purchase list.

    My favorite open world game since The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and in my top 3 PS4 games of all time. All of the side content felt meaningful, and was quick enough that it never felt like I was just trying to get through it. My only complaint is that I wish the armor functioned like in Spider-Man ps4 where you could put any suit's armor benefits on any other suit. Separate the stats from the armor!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ghost of Tsushima is a game that I cannot adequately express in only 5000 characters. Taking control of Samurai lord Jin Sakai, it is up to you to help reclaim Tsushima from the first Mongol invasion-and that's only the main storyline. Side stories of mentors and acquaintances make this game something completely unique in spite of the fact that it's only another entry in the open world market. Jin's sword in combat has weight to the strikes, each slash having a chance to catch into your opponents for that brutal, blood-spraying, ripping action. Your 'ghost tools' all feel like they have a special purpose, even if you use them or not. You'll soon feel like a master of the bow as you quickly shift from half bow to longbow, and all the special arrow types between. Each sword stance is beautiful, and has it's own allure. I could keep listing the positives, but, for a fair review, I feel I must point out the negative in all this-your map being complete depends entirely on you exploring the areas. Yes, defeating a Mongol-occupied territory helps with some of your map, but, that doesn't stop that you'll need to run and ride with your horse in order to fill it in. Luckily, though, the landscape is filled with little gems-scenes of bandits, Mongols, and peasants living their lives, or having died by others hands. This is, I would say, a definitely buy immediately game. Expand

    What Assassin's Creed should have evolved into. Simple, yet excellent combat. A good mix of both styles of gameplay. Somewhat basic story, yet a evolving protagonist and excellent thematic keeps it going well till the end.
    Visuals left me in awe, even with my ol console. One of few games where you will still be rushing into combat with excitement after 20+ hours of Gameplay.

    Apsolute masterpiece. Nothing else needs to be said about the game that has it all right. Combat is amazing,it never gets dull cutting your enemies and then cleaning your katana using your sleeve, or just flicking the sword at the side, splashing the remaining blood on the flowers in the field. Graphics also looks amazing, probably the best that will ever exist on PS4 pro. The biggestApsolute masterpiece. Nothing else needs to be said about the game that has it all right. Combat is amazing,it never gets dull cutting your enemies and then cleaning your katana using your sleeve, or just flicking the sword at the side, splashing the remaining blood on the flowers in the field. Graphics also looks amazing, probably the best that will ever exist on PS4 pro. The biggest factor here is the story, which is apsolutely fantastic. You can literally see the strugle of the main character between how he was raised to live and fight and how he must adapt and change in order to survive the invasion of an enemy that is far superior in numbers and fights by totally different rules. Side quests are amazing and interesting, not boring like in some games, you dont have to do them but they give so much more context to side characters like Masako and Ishigawa for example. 10/10, if i could give it a million,i would. The only game that comes even close to God of War (2018). Expand

    This game is Keanu Reeves (Breathtaking). I have till date not sent such a huge amount of time exploring the world rather than playing the Mission. The side quests feel less like side missions and More like the main mission. The guiding winds just make us feel like we're part of the game and are not just using some mini map to help us reach places. Totally adore this game

    Very fun game! As many others have said, the graphics are absolutely gorgeous. I’ve heard others say it’s kind of boring, but I’ve had the opposite experience.

    Visually stunning and immersive. Full of vibrant colours.
    Combat is smooth. Object detection is spot on especially in combat.
    No lock on is a challenge but fun. Stand-off mechanic is a welcome addition. Absence of mini-maps and the minimal appearance of the HUD is good, for taking in the breath taking vistas of Tsushima. Kurosawa mode should be played after your first play through.

    Only issues is the sliding door animation, it is too fast and camera angle is too closed up.

    this is a very good game, I really appreciate the efforts of the SP team who have done in-depth research on Japanese history and culture, so it gives a natural impression when playing this game, despite all kinds of minor flaws in this game, I think this is best work from SP, congratulations.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Jin’s story is really well done in spite of the progression he takes from a by-the-code samurai to using the underhanded tactics of a ninja being a bit to believe. The betrayal of the straw hats could have been done better with a tale of hurt pride or jealousy rather than of hunger, but considering the main focus of this game is the Mongols and their invasion, it’s not the worst thing in the world. The graphics are done to perfection and while the camera is finicky at times, but the gameplay itself is great and the motions characters make as they strike and the visuals that appear on screen more than make up for this leaving the player awestruck.

    I won't say i love this game, but i find quite fun, even if i'm not a fan of the genre. But "Fun" is what videogames are about right??

    The story is not particularly engaging for me, but it works nonetheless. I'm not going to spoil the story, but basically, you are put in the role of a Japanese Samurai in the feudal era, and you are tasked to drive the Mongol invaders out of Japan,

    The story is not particularly engaging for me, but it works nonetheless. I'm not going to spoil the story, but basically, you are put in the role of a Japanese Samurai in the feudal era, and you are tasked to drive the Mongol invaders out of Japan, starting from scratch.

    Visually, this title shines. Hardly you will find another title that delivers so much colorful and live environment like this game. The world seems and feels alive, and this is quite hard to accomplish. The wind is a used as a gameplay feature, but even if it's not subtle, still helps (or you can ignore it). However, interactions with NPC have something to be desired... Faces and expressions are kinda poor, and sometimes the interactions feel strange.

    All in all, even if i still have to finish this title, i can recommend it. Even if you're not really a fan of the Assasin Creed gamestyle (This game have some elements from it, and similar games), you might enjoy it.

    Surely, i am. And that's why i recommend it.

    The downside of this game, is the gameplay style, it looks like Assassins Creed hahahahah. Graphics kinda tricked me because of the trailer, but still looks

    All I can say is it’s a beautifully designed game that actually deserves its rating. Only big issues I’ve found is some capes have clipping issues and the wind doesn’t really like them in some directions. Story’s ok, but I’m getting real BOTW vibes but also puts a new spin on it. Sure, BOTW is better but I’d say that this is a definite 10 in my book. Happy gaming y’all.

    The game is beautiful but also bland during battle. I haven't beat it yet but about 7 hours in and its kinda boring. I was never into dark souls or any game like that. I really dislike the assasins creed games and it really reminds me of those. Its a alrught and im gonna finish it.

    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.
