    This is what videogames should be all about. Beautiful environment, amazing story, great character development. Gameplay is unbelievably awesome, you feel like a badass samurai or a merciless ninja all the time! Play this game!

    Truly an outstanding game. It feels like an assassin's creed game better writing. The story isn't anything new, but it is executed beautifully. Beautiful is a word that can be used a lot throughout the game, from the soundtrack, to the scenery and even the character customization. Suckerpunch have outdone themselves.

    Deserves a much much higher average critic rating. Incredible Story, Characters, Graphics and Combat. The scenery goes ahead of its time. One of few games that I have felt real raw emotion for. A masterpiece in gaming.. a MUST play.

    Excellent game, on every aspect, environment, beautiful landscapes, combat, character depth, ultra short loading screens, random encounters, main history long enough and a lot of side quest, I don't think it can get any better than this. I just couldn't stop playing the game

    This game was super fun to play. The visuals are ungodly! The story is great, he missions are cool. There’s nothing I didn’t like about the game. I legit couldn’t stop playing it. 14+ hrs a day for about a week or so.

    Sucker Punch came in clutch once again, as they always seem to do. There was one bad Sly game, and it's the one they didn't make. I had high hopes for this game, given who worked on it, and I was not diappointed. I know I'm beating a dead horse, but I agree that this game feels like what modern Assassin's Creed should be.

I had high hopes for this game, given who worked on it, and I was not diappointed. I know I'm beating a dead horse, but I agree that this game feels like what modern Assassin's Creed should be. This game takes the Assassin's Creed formula, gives it a cool setting that hasn't been done in that series, and gives you a reasonable amount of things to do. I think one of my favorite parts of the game was how they put a good amount of content into it, but didn't make the world feel barren or cluttered. That balance is almost always flawed in similar games, but I felt like this one really made sure to space things out in such a way that you weren't wandering aimlessly through the world looking for something to do, but you weren't stuck looking for 100 feathers and other useless collectibles, either. Almost everything presented to you as a player is designed to help you get stronger by playing the game and exploring. You feel much better by the end of the game than you were in the beginning, and with different play styles, why you are stronger by the end is somewhat up to player choice. I could go on about this game forever, but it's 2 in the morning. Please play it if you haven't already. This is my pick for GotY 2020, and with how positive the reviews for it look, I think many agree. Expand

    It's the execution of the game that takes my breath away. You can have a fun combat game, a beautiful game design, and also a good story, but to put that all together in a way that is cohesive, and reinforcing itself so that its meaning is always clear and shining forth, that's mastery of the art of story-driven gaming.

    One of the best stories I've ever seen, in television, in movies, in games. But it wouldn't have had its special touch if it weren't also a game, which molds its narrative in fluid ways, influencing the way you experience and think things through. For those who say games can't tell meaningful stories, they're dead wrong.

And man, did these folks deliver! Ghost Of Tsushima is a respectful bow to Japan's flourishing, diverse culture and even though they took some liberties in regards to historical accuracy, it's all coming together in a fitting and immersive, bombastic experience of the Mongolian invasion during the kamakura period on Tsushima island. This is the samurai/ronin/ninja experience we've all been waiting for. I especially have to praise the many different customization options of the protagonist and a complete lack of in-game purchases. Ubisoft take note, this is how you make a modern Open World game .Wonderful title 10/10. Expand

    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.
