    Never see the art of open world games since Zelda BOTW until this game. It's art, Not only the game.

    The game is awesome. Fun combat, a huge map worth exploring, side missions worth doing like in 'the witcher 3' and main missions with deepness and emotional attachment. The graphics are beautiful altough not high end, the way the graphic are applied its artistic. and the wind tracking mechanism is an amazing touch. I could go more into detail but I dont think I need to. You must to play this game.

    No tenia muchas expectativas en este juego, pero la verdad que al jugarlo desde primer día de lanzamiento no me arrepiento de comprarlo, es un juego muy entretenido, el sistema de pelea es sofisticado, el pero seria que no el modo sigilo el cual a mi gusto le quita diversión al juego. Si lo van a comprar jueguen en difícil de inicio pues en normal la dificultad parece que lo estas pasandoNo tenia muchas expectativas en este juego, pero la verdad que al jugarlo desde primer día de lanzamiento no me arrepiento de comprarlo, es un juego muy entretenido, el sistema de pelea es sofisticado, el pero seria que no el modo sigilo el cual a mi gusto le quita diversión al juego. Si lo van a comprar jueguen en difícil de inicio pues en normal la dificultad parece que lo estas pasando en fácil, tiene puntos muy buenos, la labilidad,los gráficos se ven frescos, con paisajes hermosos los cuales varían según el clima. La historia es entretenida, espero y Sony continué con esta calidad en los juegos. Expand

    I love how the game is fun and beautiful. It's easy to get lost in the huge world and enjoying the scenery. The combat is easy and fun too, especially the stand off, and the assassination is also fun. But what I love most about the game is the absence of SJW agenda.

    Un juego que realmente te ofrece algo nuevo, algo que ningún otro juego te ofreció antes, desde la forma de viaje, hasta la forma de combate, realmente una obra de arte. Una linda forma de despedir la ps4. Felicidades!!!!

    Шедевр игра, много дополнительных заданий, разнообразный геймплей, 4 стойки для меча, стрельба из лука взята из Horizon zero dawn,хоть графику и занизили немного если сравнить с показом E3 2018, но все равно все красиво выглядит, на пс5 увидим во всей красе.Шедевр игра, много дополнительных заданий, разнообразный геймплей, 4 стойки для меча, стрельба из лука взята из Horizon zero dawn,хоть графику и занизили немного если сравнить с показом E3 2018, но все равно все красиво выглядит, на пс5 увидим во всей красе.

    Beautiful game, engaging characters and excellent sound. The combat, while not as harsh and deep as a soulsbourne game, it is fun and incredibly smooth. Once you are acclimated to the combat you can easily make unbroken strings of attacks with cinematic animations. It really makes it feel like a samurai movie.

Other than the combat most of the systems are used in other games and nothing groundbreaking. That said, they do combine them very well and makes for a very fun gaming experience. The biggest complaint I have in the facial animations/lip syncing. Especially if you are playing with Japanese audio. Expand

    I'm literally mindblown by how much good this game is. At first I didn't expect much from a western dev making a game set in Japan..well, color me surprised. The art direction, the soundtrack and the gameplay are beyond excellent. I hope this game will win Goty cause it totally deserves it.

    Breath taking visuals, surprisingly deep and challenging combat (assuming you don’t play stealth) and a well written (and voice acted) story. Perfect send off for the PS4 exclusive lineup.

    This has to be the most fun I've had in a video game in quite some time. The fighting mechanics are fantastic, the world is vast and exploring it doesnt feel like a boring grind but an actual engaging adventure. This game is a perfect blend of stealth, action and exploring.

    As a person who loves Japanese culture, this game potrays it well. Stunning graphics and waypoint mechanics using the wind as guidance is creative and new. The way they slowly develops the characteristics of Jin into a ghost is perfect, perfect pacing. This game actually makes me wanna go visit Tsushima Island one day. And I will do so.

    Amazing open world, best combat i ever seen so far. The game is very fun, the side quests are so good than for a moment you forget about the main story ( amazing either). I like very much the samurai thematic and the representation of feudal japan with her culture. Play this, you don't regret, one the bests of generation

    This review comes from someone who has played the game for at least 6 hours. It is not done so this is just a review of what I have seen so far. I would like to start with the visuals. Everything from the weather in the background to the leaves falling from the sky are well done. There is such a beautiful representation of Japan with the graphics. From the bright colors of the flowersThis review comes from someone who has played the game for at least 6 hours. It is not done so this is just a review of what I have seen so far. I would like to start with the visuals. Everything from the weather in the background to the leaves falling from the sky are well done. There is such a beautiful representation of Japan with the graphics. From the bright colors of the flowers to the darker grays of the night sky, it truly is astonishing what had been done.

    The accuracy in the game play itself is pretty well done. From the way the blades are held to the strikes are the proper way to use the katanas and tantos both. To some the storyline might seem linear but the wide range of choices and ways to do things opens things up and gives the player many choices of which missions to do, when and how to do them. Some people can complain about the emotions in the game but the story behind the reasons is there for anyone who takes time to play the game. It is explained.

    The fighting reminds me a bit of a mix between the Arkham series and Dark Souls series. There are great choices in being able to change things mid fight. Keeps things interesting and never stops the action. There is something very visceral about this game and that is what is so good about it. It keeps it real.

    There are so many more things I could say about this game but suffice it to say that everyone should try this game. The hype is very real. I would be surprised if this game does not get Game of the Year. It would be well deserved.

    Beautiful scenery, fairly in depth gameplay. Going to spend a lot of time with this one.
    If you liked the idea of games like Nioh - but didn't want "literally Darksouls" - then GOS is for you.
    Highly recommend it.

    This game achieves what it set out to do and that is to create a fun samurai fantasy. Other people's expectations are just out of line with reality. It is a fun roleplaying open-world experience and you truly do feel like a samurai.

    The style, tone, and combat of the game feels right. Definitely feels like a love letter to samurai cinema.

    It's not below a 9/10. If you're reading the 0/10 reviews you are feeding the trolls. The game is stunning to look at, fun to play and a joy to explore. The camera can get a bit wonky during combat but it's tolerable. 20hrs in and barely scratched the surface. If you like open world games then step right up. You will not regret it.

    The combat system is amazing, and it's probably the most beautiful game out there. Story is great, side missions are fun and rewarding... Can't find much wrong with this yet. Must play

    Great game.
    I liked it from the very beginning of the main character's story. A well-crafted story, with good twists and turns. There is something to be sad about, and maybe even cry about. There is something to be very happy about. A large number of emotions are experienced during the passage.
    The story will not leave anyone indifferent, and the upcoming choice will reveal your essence.

    Of great interest are the stories of individual, significant characters, whose confidence and determination increases with each new feat of the main character.
    A beautiful, detailed world with a detailed, cinematic environment that conveys the atmosphere of the game.
    Beautiful armor and its color, weapons are deadly in all images.
    Many tools of the Ghost and various techniques, all this is an integral, beautiful, presentable part of the game, for which it is not a pity to give money

Weather effects are next-gen and the environment feels natural; spaces are realistic.

    this truly game nails it all. Ghost of Tsushima is a must own for PS4 owners, especially those who love massive open-world gameplay coupled with excellent storytelling.

    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.
