    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Simply one of the best games I have ever played. One of the most beautiful environments in gaming history! Great Storyline and Great combat. Amazing photo Mode. The only downside I have with the game are the bugs and the cutscenes some times act strange like the audio dropping significantly on one of the npc speaking. 9.5 Out of 10 for Me. Must Play! Expand

    Absolutely incredible game. Best game of the year for me so far. Such a gorgeous world, and satisfying combat. A must play for any Samurai enthusiast.

    Graphics:
    While it’s on par with most current gen games and not necessarily outstanding in fidelity, the art is absolutely stunning, parts of the game world are so beautiful I just stopped to admire in the highly detailed photo mode which allows you to fine tune every detail to your liking.
    Gameplay: It reconciled aspects of the souls genre with something more accessible like AS. Creed,

    Gameplay:
    It reconciled aspects of the souls genre with something more accessible like AS. Creed, however it adds its own flavour with its unique samurai techniques. Throwing a smoke bomb,m to blind a group, sneaking up on the leader, killing the others with quick Kunai and then finishing off with a brutal special technique, the cool moments are endless and player choice is empathised through the ability to switch between Ghost and Samurai seamlessly. As an open world game this borrows heavily from Breath of the Wild, minimising any kind of UI and creating a very organic feeling world in which discoveries are endless, separating it the run of the mill games in an exhausted genre.

    Story :

    This is heavily rooted in Japanese lore and shows great respect for the culture, it’s hard to to be charmed by the Samurai dialogue and anime like themes, ultimately it feels like a very well done traditional movie which lends the game a great atmosphere. Unlike the Last of Us 2 the game doesn’t go for unnecessary shock value or excessive gore, the story feels much more believable and the violence contextually appropriate, leading to a much more consistent, principled and satisfying narrative. Perhaps player choice isn’t integrated as well as in the Infamous series for the sake of telling a cohesive plot, though the theme of conflict between the ghost and the samurai code is compelling enough. Overall, this is the best PlayStation exclusive since God of War and for those disappointed with TLOU2 this may be the refreshment you need!

    Ode to Samurai..... Pastiche, Homage, and a love letter to the classical Japanese Samurai film genre. So much fun and immersion. Amazing game. So satisfied unlike how TLOUP2 left me.

    I've been waiting for a game like this for 20 years. Ghost of tsushima is hell of a game.
    Gameplay : the gameplay is really fast and challenging. You have lots of different skill to choose from.
    Story : so far I liked side quests more than story missions, some of side quests are really awesome specially that ghost mission in woods.

    Great open world game with an amazing setting. Some may compare to Assassin's Creed, which is true for maybe Origins/Odyssey but after 20+ hours play time I'd say it's closer to the newer Tomb Raiders with a huge Skyrim sense of exploration.

    The game is amazing. I am impressed. This game has definitely exceeded my expectations. First of all the game looks absolutely stunning. The world is beautiful, colorful and alive. The idea of removing the mini map and bringing in features like the guiding wind, birds and foxes really hit the spot for me, taking immersion to a new level.

    A game that has truly been worth the wait. A swan song worthy of the PS4. An interesting look into the Divine Wind of pre warring state era Japan.

    This is a hell of a game, the combat, visuals and sound are all spectacular and the rewards and progression are all useful and fun. It really nails the samurai fantasy and is the best samurai game (I'd even say maybe the best open-world action game) on the market.

    The game's been getting a lot of weird flak for being open world but the reality is it does the open world much better than most games manage and it's been a blast throughout. If you really hate open world games maybe pass but for everyone else this is a must play. It does so much really exceptionally well. I'm getting sick of open-world games myself and this still gets an easy 10 from me.

    This is the game I always wanted to play. The art, the story, the sword combat are all exactly want I'd hoped they would be. It's a samurai cinema experience brought to life... thoughtful, mature, bloody!

    And absolutely beautiful open game with visceral combat. A game praised and supported by Japan as well as their gaming critics and journalists, show Sucker Punch took great care and respect of Ghost of Tsushima. This is the best way to end the PS4, highly recommend.

    Amazing through and through the ONLY issue is the syncing being off but that’s it I’ve put over 20 hours into it already and I haven’t even finished the first act. Everything is fresh and new and the combat standout tremendously! 10/10

    Não é um jogo único, mas ele inova em muitos elementos. O jogo é muiito lindo (há problemas em texturas), tem um combate delicioso que você sente um desânimo quando acaba, pois sempre quer mais.
    A história é bem legal, nada sublime, mas legal tem umas missões secundárias bem legais. Mas o mais interessante é a imersão você se sente na ilha (recomendo ativar o modo especialista), o cenário

    A história é bem legal, nada sublime, mas legal tem umas missões secundárias bem legais. Mas o mais interessante é a imersão você se sente na ilha (recomendo ativar o modo especialista), o cenário lindo te guia para os objectivos através do vento que movimenta praticamente cada árvore, dos pássaros e das raposas. Os NPC interagem com você, se reverenciando por que você um lorde afinal. Isso é muito bom é bem feito. É um jogo impressionante é muito viciante. Tem o melhor modo foto de todos os jogos já lançados. Se você viu review e ficou em dúvida é melhor você mesmo testar.

    Jogo excelente, missões secundárias muito boas, até mesmo chegam a ser melhores que a missão principal, cenários lindos, impossível andar 10 metros sem abrir modo foto, o jogo realmente teve downgrade, mas continua lindo e não atrapalha em nada, combate maravilhoso cheio de habilidades Que realmente são uteis

    The best samurai game in a long time and a great fun for all, who love action. Love for Japan and its history is a big plus, but its knowledge is not necessary to enjoy every minute of this beautiful game. [Issue#305]

    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.
