    Omg this game makes me speechless when I first played. It was like I was in the game myself fighting Mongols on the beach, and defending tsushima. I couldn't stop playing until I realized that it was 7 in the morning and that I've been playing it for 8 hours straight.

    Easily my favorite game of 2020. This game justifies the concept of video games being art.

    20 hours in and not a second of boredom. Characters feel real, combat is intense, side missions are memorable, and the sound samples are incredible.

    Thank you Sucker Punch.

    what a game! easily the best third person combat system ever made , a blend of Assassins creed/ Spider Man and Batman Arkham Knight. Silky smooth and enough new elements introduced through out to mix it up. The story is serviceable and does the job but the Beautiful locals makes up for it. Enjoy the journey and the little moments. One of the games of the Console generation for me, Don't miss it !

    i pre-ordered the game from PS Store on Thursday last week and have been playing alot of this game since Friday when it was released at midnight and honestly, i'm very impressed with this game. The story, the characters and the fast loading times. Sure some people have said it's like the Japanese version of Assassin's Creed but that really doesn't matter at all.

    Man, what a way to end the PS4 than with Ghost of Tsushima. This game is fantastic, the graphics, world, gameplay, and story are all incredible, I can see now why it took Sucker Punch so long to finish this game coming from Infamous Second Son and it's expansion.

    What a Game! The gameplay is a perfect mix of RPG, sword combat, stealth and open-world exploration. No two side missions are the same and everything contributes to either the story or character development, both of which are superbly written.

    Absolutely awesome looking game and gameplay its also very nice. Combat (at least for me) is very satisfying. For me 100% game that deserve 10/10. And its truly worth buying it at full price. Recommended.

    Honestly the best samurai and open world game since The Witcher 3. Witcher has better writing and complexity. But visuals and combat in this game are breathtaking and exceptional. Love it. Famitsu 40/40 is thought to disagree.

    One of the greatest games I've ever played. The graphics are breathtaking and complement the spectacular open world with many things to do, the combat is satisfying and the stealth is fun, the game doesnt have too many bugs and the ones they do have fix themselves! Overall a great game!

    I really love how Sucker Punch captured the essence of old Japan. This game makes me feel playing an Akira Kurosawa movie. Akira would have been proud. Ghost of Tsushima captures the mystique, fierce violence, and barely contained emotional angst of the great samurai films

    SuckerPunch has created a game to remember. Many people will say: yeah, but it's a basic cookie cutter open world game. But look at the details, the thought of how this game was put together, the things that you can do, everything is brought to a level that gives just that extra touch.

    Sure there might be some glitches (which I haven't encountered yet) and it might look a little bit different compared to what was shown a couple years back, but this made the game even better. It's a masterpiece and in my opinion for now the contender for GOTY.

    This game is amazing, quite frankly. From the superb cinematics to the gameplay itself, the missions, it's totally addictive ! I generally like open world type games (so long as the story doesn't stink). The combat is interesting enough so as to not become too boring. I can't really find too much wrong with it at the moment :^)

I kept on playing non-stop through the story and doing a bit of the side content and I gotta say, I enjoyed every second of it. Moments that literally gave me chills was unlocking the ghost stance and the end of the game where sucker punch decided to put you in a lose-lose situation lol. Either way, I loved the game and I hope everyone else did too! I can’t wait to complete all the exploration and side content.… Expand

    To the metacritic staff .... Why do you allow Digitally Downloaded review on the critic section, I mean his YouTube channel has 1000 subscribers, small website as well, also not even a reliable source, How do you choose them? Can someone explain it?

    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.
