    Ghost of tsushima presents a story that ties you to the game, from the main quests to the side quests, with a vast map of things to do and yes, with rewards worth exploring.

    The fight is the strong point of the game, with a complex and fun combat system, no combat will be the same, you are approaching it in a different way.

    The graphics have certain problems with some textures, but that does not fail to make it one of the most beautiful of the generation, with an incredible art direction!

    The camera sometimes gets in the way, but it gets used to the combat system and camera, it ends up bothering with time.

    The photo mode is incredible, I spent hours on it, complete and with many filters that make the scenery even more beautiful.

    It's a game worth the full price and the best open world on ps4 in 2020.    … Expand

The soundtrack is epic, with blends of traditional Japanese instruments into electronica mixes. I enjoyed the open world dynamic immensely and continue to enjoy it as I explore and replay areas. The open world allows me to go at my own pace or side track to wherever i feel like. The combat mechanics in this game are outstanding, it is a nice blend of challenge and easy to understand. THIS game should be a "Must Play" and I think its a serious contender for Game of the Year.… Expand

    between its surreal graphics and art style that made it visually stunning and engaging just to be in the world...its gameplay crosses many variations for many gamers to enjoy or suit their play style. Only gripe is that...it isn't massive enough world :)

    This is a great game that brings enough of its own identity to many of the, admittedly familiar, core aspects. A handful of few minor drawbacks mean that my score would more accurately be a 8.5.

    Graphics The good: Stunning artistic style combined with fantastic scenery and great lighting, including beautiful variety in the day night cycle. Possibly the best photo mode I've used.    This is a great game that brings enough of its own identity to many of the, admittedly familiar, core aspects. A handful of few minor drawbacks mean that my score would more accurately be a 8.5.

    Graphics

    The good: Stunning artistic style combined with fantastic scenery and great lighting, including beautiful variety in the day night cycle. Possibly the best photo mode I've used.

    The bad: They are a handful of poor textures here and there, rocky surfaces in particular. The game works best when you're surrounded by grass, trees and foliage. My main gripe is when looking at things in the distance, usually from a vantage point. It's doesn't happen too often but sometimes land in the distance looks very flat and one tone, with almost no detail. It really sticks out. For example a yellow field of flowers, from up on high, looks like a bland brushstroke of paint.

    Sound

    The good: Excellent sound effects and a great, authentic sounding soundtrack.

    The bad: There's some lip-syncing that's off if you use the Japanese VO.

    Combat gameplay

    The good: I was worried that the combat would feel like W3 or the recent two AC games but I was very happy to find they've given combat it's own feel. Combat is quick and brutal. It's somewhat like a much easier version of Sekiro, with you and your enemies doing a lot of damage but with a 'guard' bar to break down first, unless you strike directly after a dodge, in which case you can usually get one hit in.

    Another bonus is that there are quite a few tools to use (Kunai, stun bombs etc) that allow you to express yourself in a greater variety of ways.

    Stealth works well but is like many other games in that respect, although it should be noted that they've given the player a lot more room for how they move around areas. In addition to the usual 'tall grass, walls and boxes' you've got many ways of climbing over and through buildings, along with crawling under them and popping out through trapdoors, squeezing through gaps and entering through small hatches.

    There's a large amount of skills to choose from, so there's several different playstyles to choose from.

    The bad: Even on hard, the game's just too easy. Apart from the initial learning curve and times I wandered into strong camps early on, there wasn't too much difficulty once I was used to the systems. As you progress and gain levels and equipment, it just gets even easier. It's a shame because I can see plenty of room to make it harder without needing to come close to Sekiro levels. Stealth in particular is overpowered, with enemies giving you plenty of leeway in terms of when they spot you.

    The camera doesn't always play nice either. It doesn't happen too often and it's mainly in smaller areas and when you're fighting more than 2 enemies that it can be a nuisance.

    Other gameplay: Though the map isn't huge like AC Odyssey or Witcher 3, there's plenty to do and, as is usual, lots of collectibles - though almost all of them enhance your character in some way so it's much more satisfying to find them. Activities include scenery traversal and a button sequence mini-game. Side-quests often have little stories that make them feel natural and most are quite entertaining and help flesh out the protagonist's personality and, indeed, that of the game itself.

    So yeah, I'm really enjoying this game and hope that perhaps they'll patch in another difficulty setting or some kind of mode that makes things more deadly.

    There are lots of quality of life elements too. You can collect things while racing past them, whether on foot or galloping by on your horse. No need to dismount and hold a button while a little time-bar fills up.

    Fast travel is plentiful, though I often just rode wherever I needed to go in order to soak in the atmosphere. I appreciated the waypoint system too, left the screen less cluttered and it looked beautiful.    … Expand

    This game is probably the most fun I've had in an exploration game since Shadow of The colossus back on the ps2.
    The environment is simply breathtaking and pulls you in to a point where you want to go sightseeing. The lack of quest markers is one of my favourite things to be honest, you don't realise how much UI makes a game feel like a satnav. Ghost of Tsushima does the opposite and says    This game is probably the most fun I've had in an exploration game since Shadow of The colossus back on the ps2.

Ghost of Tsushima does the opposite and says "hey, look at the wind. Maybe you should follow that fox"

    The combat is solid, it's fun and tight, all be it a little repetitive but it's broken up by stealth sections, stand offs, duels and all out battles so you never feel burned out before the next battle begins.

    The only issues I've had so far are very minor, random tutorials in the late game and bad lip syncing for the Japanese dub, nothing major but sometimes breaks the immersion. Lastly it would be the fact that it's PlayStation exclusive. This wouldn't be a problem for me as I've used PlayStation for over ten years, however a recent dispute with Sony over their terms of service cost me that account and all my previous games. Still, Ghost of Tsushima is fantastic and is probably the closest to an action samurai game there ever will be. Or a tour of ancient Japan for that matter    … Expand

The world may not be as “alive” as RDR2 but being in this world I’m so immersed. My take on the story:
    The story i found very cool! It’s a very cut and dry (no pun intended) samurai story, but boy does is this story told well. The side quest literally are so well told that they are mixed into the main story. Without spoiling it, the story is very cool and fun to get through.

    My take on the combat:
    The combat I find to be very dynamic which I think is a must. Pretty much every single fight is a cinematic masterpiece there’s always something in a fight that will make you feel “awesome” afterwards. There’s duels in this game that send chills down your spine when you see jin (the main character) push his sword out of his sheath right before the fight begins! Then upgrade system is super fun! 4 different stances, 20 plus moves you can unlock, a bunch of special stealth and combat gadgets to unlock! All in all I’m gonna give it a 9/10 I don’t remember a game that made me feel so epic when playing it... I think the last game I felt that way was sekiro! This game is fun, immersive, dynamic, and beautiful! Get it. Play it. Love it.    … Expand

    Combat was fantastic, graphics amazing, story was good very polished indeed.

    I wish you got access to many things earlier on in the game, most of it didn't come until very late. Also, I think a lock-on is a must when your camera is challenging at the best of times.

    8/10 from me!

    The Graphics is for me a 9/10. The Game works with Insane Good Lightings and a gives the Game a Very Very Good Looking when ur Riding ur Horse or Running. But i need to Say that the Game is Based to looked good in Fast Movement. Cause of the Impressive Lightning Combined with everything on the Grass is Moving or Trees + in my Opinion a Lot of Wettness on the Ground. But when u take a Look on the Ground in Camps or Areas u see that its a but Meh. Which means it doenst Look that good, on This Things also the Characters besides the Main Characters from the Different Story Types also the Clothing from Normal NPC looks a bit Muddy sometimes. If i need to Rate it Between other Game i Would say its on a LvL of GoW which is for me 3rd. Behind RDR2 (2) and TLOU2 (1).

    The Atmosphere and Music are Good Mix overall i liked it and it never feeled to much or Stupid. U get this Samurai Feeling All the Time so a classy 10/10.

    The Story for me is Good. But it has the Same Problem which every Open World Game has. Cause im a Player who makes Many Side Quest and Stuff the Story gets Loss besides it. The Story was Good but i never got an Emotional Impact or feeled like "Holy **** for me a 8/10.

    The Open World is full with Activities which Really Make Fun. The Map also isnt complete Overfulled with Dog**** Side Stuff Like in Ubsoft Games or so. The Quest Makes Fun even to Follow The Foxes or get the Shrines is Good. It overall dont Feel to much it is a Perfekt Fitting. 10/10.

    The Game dont has a HUD so u cant just Click a Point on a Card and see how ur Running towords this Point. The thing with the Wind is a New and Very Good Choice SuckerPunch did here. It also dont feels like a **** thing or that u need to Long to Achive a Point on the Map its Really Really Good Made.

    Character Customizations are Ok u Can Chance ur Armor, Mask, Hat, the Katana & Dagger Skin also the Bow Skin. Its Okay nothing so Special but still Fine 8/10.

    In This Game u dont Have a Grinding System like u have in AC that the Higher u go the Harder the Enemies are. The Game is Based that u Shoulöd Feel how Powerful a Katana is. And that is the Best Decission SP can have Done Her. I cant Imagin how Sad it Must be Feel to have a Katana and cant Compete Against the same Enemies only cause thei are 5 Lvls a Head or so. It Just Feels Real and Impactful.

    What i need to Critics are the Cutscenes, not cause thei feel Wrong Placed are so the Completly Fine. But idk the Cutscenes Feel so "Cheap" It doesnt Feel like Year 2020. Thei are a bit Out of Time if u Compare them to TLOU2 or Red Dead Redemption 2. The "Intro" and the "Outro" of the Cutscenes as i said feel a Bit Cheap in my Opinions.. 8/10.

    What i overall Miss a bit but well thats not a Big Deal in the Games At the Moment only RDR2 & TLOU2 made Them which i Realized was the Character Mimic. That u can see how a Character Feel. When he Talks about his Family Died or so. The Face Looks Permanently the Same. But i dont Give a Score for that. Cause not Much Games even Improved that.

    I Need to Give 1 Bonus Points for the Very Good Synchro and the Insane Good Looking Armours and Masks. In my German Synchro i had 1 Issue that when Ur Jumping the Sounds Jin Gives are the Japanes Sound that doenst Fit the Synchro that Well but that a Small Issue i have. Overall is the Synchro Perfekt.

    If ur a Trophy Hunter the Platin is very Easy and not Ginding **** Like other Open World Games.

    From my Side its a 9.2/10. Which means a 9 on Metacritic. i Hade Good i guess Arround 60 Hours until my Platin Trophy, and never got Bored.

    Have Fun Playing.    … Expand

    The map, though large, feels lived in. Even the npcs have such life to them.
    All in all a briliant gam. High recommend it    … Expand

    With an engaging story, fun combat, and great voice acting, Ghost of Tsushima smashes all expectations I had in the months leading up to it. And aesthetically speaking, I truly feel it’s the most beautiful game of all time imo. What a way to send off the PS4 before heading into the next console generation.

Another thing that I loved about the Side missions is that they were always a different narrative, even if they follow a similar premise. What this game does so well is that it doesn’t force you to do the side content, but it makes you want to do it. That is the reason why the open world is on the level of red dead’s or Witcher 3. Exploring in this game is insanely fun, I don’t know how many times I just drifted off doing activities like chasing a fox or bird instead doing the main story. I also have to give props to the photo mode, which is the best one we have ever scene. Overall this game is amazing and everyone should play this great game.… Expand

The map is very large and prompts the user to go and explore its massive landscape. If you love long games and massive environments this is the game for you.

    Then why did I gave it 9/10 instead of 10/10? The only issue is the stealth game play. I don't think they haven't quite figure it out within the scope but the sword fighting part is sooooo entertaining and I'd give it 20 out of 10 if possible.

    Taking into account the fact that I practically love Japanese culture, which can prevent me from having a 100% critical position towards this game, however, I doubt that it is not worthy of the high scores given by the users.

    Now either in terms of the concept of the game or rather in the context in which it is located not only for me a big fan of Japanese culture but also for people who are not very familiar with it, it seems a great success on the part of Suker Punch, put not only in video games but also in the movies, a story has been placed within the kamakura period, that is, the period in which the Mongol invasion took place, the reason why I think it is a success is that just precisely at that time the development of a character could be appreciated quite well as a samurai would avenge his people after an enemy invasion, implementing well not only the arrival of the enemies you face, but also the actions and the how the secondary and tertiary characters as well as the protagonist Jin Sakai are developed.
    As for the development of the characters, you can get to see a good job, showing in a very realistic or better human way the different problems that develop within the game, in certain cases you can see certain decisions in which you think not They are the correct ones, however, I think it is a success since a character who always makes choices perfectly does not feel human, this also allows a good development of the main story, which I think has as its main purpose, to show the Like a war that devastated the island of Tsushima and what this triggers, it changes the behavior and thought throughout the plot, what I mean is that there is not a contrast only between the beginning and the end as usual pass in other titles, if not the characters evolve after each event in the game.
    Now changing the subject I want to highlight the incredible graphic section that the game presents, until I tried Ghost of Tsushima, I had never seen a graphic section that focused more on representing the beauty of the landscape than its own realism, although it is true that if you are looking well within the wide world of tsushima you can find textures that after you observe them for a while you realize that they do not look so good, I think that is not the end of the game, if not beautify the landscape with certain resources that seemed to me Incredible like the amazing movement of the lawn and sometimes multiple particles like the leaves or the lawn itself, while some games focus on incredibly detailed and practicing textures without any pixels, GoT focuses on lighting or reflection and on the movement of things like grass, which in my opinion give as a unique satisfaction and which I think was completely adequate to represent the great beauty of Japan.
    However, after all these great successes, it is notable that the biggest failure he has is his artificial intelligence in general, not only the enemies that many times can pass from you completely even if he is in front of them, which greatly affects the style of stealth combat, but also the artificial intelligence of the NPCs and their different patterns, many times it comes to feel that they are robots that when you pass in front of them they answer you with a calculated and perfect body movement, which can ruin in certain it forms the atmosphere that the game generates in places like towns or camps.
    As for more specific levels such as certain technical touches, more specifically the collisions which in my opinion should have polished them much more, it is a failure which I see as one of the most notorious, mainly the collision that the main character has with the slopes u some objects that houses the world, I feel that if they had taken a little longer to improve certain technical aspects it would have been a game that without a doubt would have deserved a 10.
    In conclusion, this is an incredibly good and much better game for people who love ancient Japanese culture, or the culture of war in general, however for someone looking for new and unique innovations or mechanics it will be a good game but it will not be a Wonderful    … Expand

    Therefore my only disappointment was the difficulty level with only 3 (easy, medium, and hard).
    While playing on Hard after finishing Act 1, i realized the hard difficulty was not a challenge for me since i do everything in the current Act before proceeding to the next area.

Some of the positives the main being combat. I have no issues saying this is the best third person combat since God of war. Its snappy with beautiful animation and excellent hit detection. The combat takes a while to master an only gets better with the extensive skill tree. Having different attack stances and stealth specific skills really allows to tackle objectives like the samurai or ghost ar a mixture of both. The graphics pretty good not on the level of rdr2 but the lighting and sheer style oozes from ghost. The sum shafts flowing flowers and grass and blossom really makes you feel part of this amazing samurai epic. My only grip would be the story was good but at times felt a little flat the dialogue for characters just didn't feel genuine or memorable. For example when I think of witcher 3 I remember characters like bloody barron djistra Roche yen and ciri all memorable believable characters. Overall this is by far the best game I've played all year and a is a game of the Yr contender for me. I can't recommend the game more it's a must play (in Japanese with subtitles is best). On a side note anyone that says this is just another boring open world game is just wrong. It borrows alot from other games yes but expands on these elements and also introduces some of its own.

Ghost Of Tsushima starts out strong, immediately putting you in the thick of battle, giving you a quick rundown of what the controls do, which is something that I appreciate when a game doesn’t hold your hand, especially with long, boring tutorials, and that is shown a bit later in the game when you actually get to do their tutorial, which they make enjoyable by creating a beautiful scenery and giving you a bit of story and lore about your character, Jin Sakai. I haven’t found the story to be anything incredibly special, however it does its job well at achieving what it wants to portray — a samurai warrior having to adapt to his enemy in order to survive and reclaim his home, even if it means going back on his code of honor.
    Leaving the story aside, the game looks and sounds absolutely fantastic. It was the first game where I felt compelled to put down questing and just go into photo mode(which is incredibly detailed and favours exploration) to take screenshots every 10 minutes or so. Yes, the game has that many distinct, beautiful locations. You will never get bored of exploring in this game. The ambient sounds are beautifully done, as well as the combat sounds. It truly does its job in immersing you in the game. Of course, it has its flaws, nothing is perfect, and while it didn’t really bother me, the main protagonist might sound a bit dull at times, somewhat like a Connor from AC3, while the rest of the voice actors seem to do their job pretty well. You have a lot more emotion from the japanese main character’s voice actor, however the lip syncing is made for the English version, so that might throw you off.
    Moving on to gameplay and animations, this game delivers as well, albeit with some flaws. Exploring is a big part of this game, so the controls really aid you here as they feel smooth and well polished. The combat is very well done and tons of fun, and really delivers at making you feel like a badass samurai. However, I’ve found the difficulty curve to stop evolving as you learn the enemy moveset and different stances and earn some upgrades. In Act 1, at least I felt the need to crank the difficulty to hard as I was able to just fight 10 people at once if I used everything in my arsenal. By Act 2, new enemy types were introduced, which meant I had to learn new moves again, which made the game challenging again, but then, same story. Not a bad thing by any means, as this only proves the game rewards exploration and learning mechanics. The downside to the combat is the camera work and the lack of a “lock on” type of feature, sometimes the camera will zoom in too much if you’re in a tight spot and you won’t see enemies properly, or when sneaking into tight spaces it might set you off. Animation wise, the game does a decent job, with some animations clipping through objects, such as when walking in different terrain types. Also, I’ve noticed that, when riding/walking through bamboo forests you just clip through every tree. I’m not sure if this was done on purpose to sort of trick the player when riding on a horse that he managed to squeeze through a narrow gap, or it’s just a bug.
    One final thing that I will talk about that stood out to me is the attention to detail. The fact that you have no HUD apart from your Health and Resolve while in combat means you have to have enough detail for the player to be able to catch on to certain things, and the game does just that. They even do that with your character’s “special moves”, those are like your abilities in AC Odyssey, if you will. Except, you don’t just unlock them and slot them in and then you use them. The game goes even further and basically gives you a quest, which involves you searching for certain things, and it always culminates with a badass duel or epic fight where your characters acquires said ability. This really caught my attention and I enjoyed it tremendously, since it helps immerse you even more.
    All in all this game is worth every penny, and the developers did an amazing job at creating a samurai open world game where you can really see the beauty of Tsushima island and feel like you’re part of its background. While having a few oddities in terms of camera and animations, there’s a lot of other positives that make this game truly special, and even if you’re not a fan of japanese culture this game will reel you in and you’ll learn on the go.    … Expand

    Ждал игру два года, как минимум ради эстетики средневековой Японии. На деле же игра меня впечатлила гораздо сильнее, чем просто красивой картинкой. Атмосфера и визуал на высоте, но лучше всего здесь исполнена боевая система. Не слешер с закликиванием одной-двух кнопок, а настоящий тактический боевик с самураем в главной роли.

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

    A perfect blend of open world, action, and stunning visuals. So well designed it just feels good to play. With enough difficulty to make it feel rewarding to master. Long story short - This good samurai game!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Great scenery, close to Japanese tradition that even the Japanese critics praise it for that. That together with the Assassin's Creed vibe in an open world creates a really stunning gameplay and the graphics are on a whole new level! I've stopped and paused many times during the first few hours to just marvel at it all. This is entertainment at it's best. This is exactly what gamers want. It's only a pity one cannot trust these review scores because there are a lot of angry REEEEE SJW's that are extremely salty over the fact that everyone is of the opinion tlou2 was just absolute trash/garbage and a dumpsterfire on every way you look at it. The story was trash, the ID-politics were an absolute cringe-feast, Buffy the feminist made no sense, she's bad until she finds the last Airbender that needs to fight the fire nation and it was so depressing that probably half of the gamers afterwards took the pharmacies by storm for some prozac. Naughty Dog totally missing out on why gamers play games or why it's called the entertainment industry in the first place. I'd advise you to go through the negative reviews here and see how many of them unsurprisingly gave tlou2 a 10 and Ghost of Tsushima a 0, which tells you all you need to know that they are just trolls. Wouldn't even surprise me if the majority of them are from salty Naughty Dog employees that can't stand all the hate their game got and how objectively bad it really was; certainly if you compare it with Ghost of Tsushima which is probably a title for the history books and deserves the title 'epic'.… 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.
