    Beautiful, fun with many interesting mechanics, it plays like a dream with perfectly mapped out controls. The characters are interesting, not cardboard cutouts, flawed people without being beaten over the head with it. It pulls you in and keeps your attention! Can't wait for more games like this from Sucker Punch.

    From the beginning crawl with the epic music and outstanding visuals of the Mongolian war ships oh man I knew I was in for something.

The combat is difficult at times but it makes me want to perfect it and become a better fighter. Exploration is fun, seeing new locations and accidentally stumbling upon a war camp or hot spring, and the missions are awesome. The storyline with Ishikawa and his ex-student had me more invested than half of The Last of Us 2, if you've played you'll know what I mean. Haven't finished it but I have put many hours into it already. It's fantastic. Expand

    If you're a massive fan of medieval Japan, you will love this game. Brings light to an often overlooked part of the mongol invasion that happened in the 13th and 14th centuries. I've heard of the invasion of Japan and how they were stopped by storms, not that that they actually landed and how the opening of the game is true to history. The gameplay and swordsmanship is amazing. I've alwaysIf you're a massive fan of medieval Japan, you will love this game.

I've always wanted to play a game about samurai, and this game should show developers that Japanese history is a rich trove for adventure, RPG and action games. Here's to hoping either sucker punch or someone else will make a boshin war game like this Expand

    This game is a masterpiece. I see critiques about historic accuracy. Who said it had to be? Are there any popular games about medieval England that are historically accurate, or do we throw in some dragons and fictional kingdoms and not give a sh*? Nobody is going to assume this is real.

Are there any popular games about medieval England that are historically accurate, or do we throw in some dragons and fictional kingdoms and not give a sh*? Nobody is going to assume this is real. Nobody is being misrepresented. The graphics achieved in this game are mind blowing, making you enjoy your aging console that’s about to be replaced by the PS5 as if it was new again, but it’s not only the graphics that make it great. Everything from the standoff mechanics, to petting foxes instead of stupidly shooting at anything that moves, brings thoughtful and welcome changes to the genre. It really deserves a score of 90 or higher. It’s a shame there are so many trolls who are out to discredit Sony’s exclusives. Either that or people have become so spoiled and ignorant, it’s nearly impossible to please. Expand

    I have always loved all Japanese things, especially the culture and story of japan. I absolutely loved this game from start to finish. Even though it has some flaws like the facial expressions and animations, especially in the Japanese track, these flaws doesnt make the game less immersive. A no brainer 10/10. And i would even say it rivals The Witcher 3, maybe even better in some ways.

    This game is truly the best game of 2020 so far, barely beating out FF7, and beating the S**T out of The Last of Us 2, what a horrible game that was, buy this game, this is a must buy, from opening to ending this is game of the year so far.

    Masterpiece all around, with satisfying combat that doesn’t go stale combined with an amazing soundtrack and visuals. My first time giving my review of a game because it’s that enjoyable, definitely in my personal top three.

    A true masterpiece!
    Half of the game size other AAA titles have. Close to no loading times. NPCs run at your speed an even go on horses if you do. Stunning visuals and so much more.
    Compared to the political mess TLOU2 is, this game simply delivers without adding stupid stuff. 10/10

    I finally just go around to beating this game after doing a 100% run. This game is absolutely amazing, and likely the best open-world game since the witcher 3. Most open-world games are insanely repetitive and get boring after the first 10 to 20 hours or so. There's only been a handful of open-world games that I will actually want to see and do everything, and Ghost of Tsushima isI finally just go around to beating this game after doing a 100% run.

There's only been a handful of open-world games that I will actually want to see and do everything, and Ghost of Tsushima is absolutely one of them.

    It definitely still has its repetitive moments, but its broken up with its attention to detail, and gorgeous art direction. I constantly found myself switching outfits, slow walking, and sheathing my sword over and over again simply because it looked awesome. I often found myself using the games amazing cinematic features. This is hands down one of the best games on the ps4, and its a fantastic way to end the console life-cycle.

    Way to go Sucker Punch, you absolutely nailed it.

    One of the best games I've played recently. Mechanically I found it similar to shadow of mordor and the world building style similar to red dead redemption. Leaving the option of choosing your own fate was a nice touch.

    Open world classico con un'ambientazione che ricrea alla perfezione l'atmosfera Giapponese. Combat sistem bello e divertente che alle difficoltà più alta alla uccisione del nemico di da tanta appagamento. Storia di secondarie e principali molto avvincenti ed emozionanti.

    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.
