    The closest game in which can be compared to this game it the Assassin Creed franchises. (the newer games, Origins / Odyssey) but this game is much much more. I feel more connected with the characters. I dont have a problem with how the game progresses. The map does feel empty in some places but overcomes by the details in the small villages. The combat is something which truly feels good to play. Different stances preform better versus different attackers. One thing that took me a while to understand (playing on Hard) is some attackers were extremely difficult to beat, but the whole game pushes you and tells you Samurai need to have patients and not be hack and slash. Once I learned to slow down and let the mongols attack with their chaotic ways I was able to slow down and beat them.

    Game looks truly amazing (coming from a pc player), Like I was blown away how amazing the game looks. Having to follow the wind instead of using a compass is something different but genius at the same time. My only concern is I truly feel like I am not being a true samurai by being an assassin too.

    Game 9/10... Some bugs with facial expressions / talking. Some emptiness in the map, and some UI bugs when trying to see new sword/armor kits.

    Spend money on this masterpiece.

    Sucker Punch promised to give us an immersive Japanese feudal era Samurai setting and Ghost of Tsushima delivers it spendidly.

Japanese pop culture's take on their own Samurai history is an often romanticized version depicted by the legendary movies of Akira Kurosawa and Sucker Punch took great note of them to develop Ghost of Tsushima. The game looks good not because of some realistic graphics but the lack of them: a feudal Japanese island covered every inch by overcolored cherry blossom, maple leaves, etc...Needless to say, Ghost of Tsushima doesn't fail to provide us an exotic traditional Japan. While some stealth elements and improvable A.I are quite spot on in the game, it doesn't hamper the overall gameplay as the majority of the player's community would rather just go the Samurai way and cut down enemies with some awesome Katana finishing moves instead sneaking around like a creep trying to catch some dumb A.I by surprise.

    Es un gran Juego, posee un fiel recreación del Japón feudal. Los NPC no son genéricos, gran variedad en combate, creo que falta un poco más de expresión en los rostros y una que otra misión secundaria repetitiva. Pero en general es una Joya que debe tenerse, excelente trabajo de sucker punch.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. You just have to play this with a good headset if you have one. The audio is mind-blowing.

    I originally had no intention of buying this game at release. After watching some reviews by people I trust and respect, I was convinced otherwise. Initially I was super skeptical but upon playing the first 3 hours I'm completely blown away.

    I won't go into graphical quality since I'm sure there are many other reviews that will say what I already think - it's breathtaking. I actually feel like I'm immersed in the world when I have the headset on and the lights off. I had trouble putting down my controller, I just kept wanting to play more and more. The audio is insanely good too.

    Combat is also awesome. Not perfect, but the little hiccups in the mechanics weren't enough to pull me out of the immersion of feeling like a badass as I killed enemies with grace and deadly precision.

    The one thing about the combat that I absolutely love is that you don't get rewarded for button mashing, but rather you have to carefully plot out your plan of attack otherwise you can be slaughtered when swarmed by enemies. Especially when taking on large groups of them, they WILL swarm you and it's pretty terrifying. I think Sucker Punch did a great job making the combat really diverse and interesting. It really feels like every fight you get into is unique from the last depending on the weapons, stances, or tactics(stealth, standoff, etc) you use.

    And the customization!!! I'm a huge sucker for cosmetics, and it's so fun to collect cosmetics through small quests of following foxes or golden birds, etc.

    One of the few issues I have with the game is it's pretty obvious that they didn't have much time to put into the smaller side quests, and it shows when you talk to the NPCs as the camera shots are far enough away from the character models so that you can't see their faces (probably to save on animation costs) Not a deal breaker for me though. I can't complain though, when they went above and beyond expectations with the meat and bones of the game, I have no beef really.

    The thing I'm probably the most saddened by is that the lip syncing with the Japanese audio. I really wanted to play this in Japanese but the lip syncing just didn't really cut it for me :( but the english version is still awesome! Just not what i had wanted primarily. Who am I to complain!

    Graphical quality is astonishing, audio is simply wondrous, combat is diverse and fun, storyline is great, a few hiccups now and then but overall the game is a real masterpiece.

    The game has one of the most enthralling world's I have experienced in videogames for a long time. The combat is great, the soundtrack is mind-blowingly incredible and the story serves to glue all of these parts listed above together to make for a truly beautiful experience.

    The game has its faults in combat with the camera but from my playtime, it's only ever hindered me on a few occasions.

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.

Honestly, if ya wanna game of epic combat, great scenery, great characters, decent storyline, awesome mobilization and open maps, this is the way to go. Unlike other big brand co. games(TLOU II T-T') this is worth every cent. While the combat is a bit challenging at first the reward is oh so satisfying once ya nail it. Oh yeah and actually really enjoyed the artwork for this it's pretty interesting to look at and the detail that they put to every weapon in game. Since I'm still a student it's awesome to have some knowledge on the moguls come up in a game and know some bits here and there. Also the characters are lovable btw very important even the villains, as they should be. (BE WARNED, THE bad reviews are salty TLOU fans review bombing this masterpiece don't let em fool you!

GoT gives so much fun and satisfaction that it is really hard to put down, so it is this kind of game. In the recent years I had two favourites: God of War 4 and RDR2, but GoT now is the third.
    Addictive because of:
    - the combat system (start with minimal techniques and tools, gives depth gradually)
    - the graphics is not as detailed as in RdR2, but Sucker Punch found an artistic approach (beatiful colors, particles, smoke, mist, sunrays, flowers and trees) that gives an astonishing result overall. It is an artistic masterpiece without a doubt
    - the story is a real Samurai story with genuine characters (no politics pushed in any way)
    - Jin is a likeable character who tries to live based on a moral code, saving the Island and Japan
    - if you play it on hard it gives more satisfaction, especially the duels
    - the side quests are really good (there is a lot) and some of them reward you well (eg mythical movements)
    - There are real strong likable women characters in the game (Yuna, Lady Masako Adachi)
    - a lot of professional reviewers pointed out that the camera is off... this is true, BUT it gives a freedom to you as you can rotate it freely and therefore you can decide from what POV would you like to check the enemies (sometimes they close round so a fixed camera would be disadvantegous IMO)
    - the guiding wind was a fantastic idea, works really well
    - it is subjective but I like the HUD-less screen... the environment is breathtaking so why we need to put anything else on the screen?
    Compared to RDR2 there are some details that I missed in the first hours then I realized that in this world they are not missing at all. This game do not want you to be a hunter (even though you can hunt down animals), nor be a diver, fisherman and a lot other things as you are a Samurai so they focused on the Japanese culture (even though culture from the 16th - 18th century so from a later period), how to be a master Swordsman and how to find the way of a Ninja (aka Shinobi), while you progress in the story
    Some bugs that need to be addressed:
    - rarely the horse’s front legs can stand on a tree or on a bigger rock
    - the AI should be better (mongols are running back if they leave their territory, even if they try to chase you; sometimes they do not observe you from the watchtower, even if you kill everybody in the fortress/village cause they do not hear you; the deers should run away, but sometimes they run into you instead)
    - the villagers should sleep at night, but some of them instead work on the fields(?)
    These are not annoying problems as the addictive parts compensate them easily, but fixing these and similar minor things would give even better satisfaction IMO. I think Sucker Punch will release some patches later and some of these minor flaws might be fixed.
    I will replay it a couple of times, once on PS5 definitely (60 fps and higher resolution would make this even more breathtaking)

    Easily the best looking game of all time, the stealth mechanic is not great and difficulty should be adjusted to make it more challenging but it's the only open world game in existence that every single mission and activities point toward one goal and that's creating a hero amd saving the island feom mongol invasion

    Really addictiv gameplay. The combat is so satisfying, although it takes some time to get there. Once you picked up some new skills and stances, it gets even better. Stealth is fine, even if the AI is a bit dumb and slow to notice you. Amazing visuals, great music, engaging story. I love the absence of a HUD and mini map especially, it feels really immersive.

Stealth is fine, even if the AI is a bit dumb and slow to notice you. Amazing visuals, great music, engaging story. I love the absence of a HUD and mini map especially, it feels really immersive. There's tons to do in the open world, the bigger side missions are interesting and fun. One of the best gameplay moments are the one on one duels you get in the main story, mythic quests and some of the side missions. The only thing that is a bit bothersome is the camera. There's no lock on and the camera can get in your way when you're fighting multiple enemies. Sometimes a bit so scenery obstructs your view. And when you'rer facing a group of enemies it can get a bit frantic. Especially if there is more than one brute type enemy among them and you get swarmed from all sides. Then the combat is basically just dodging and button smashing.
    Overall I don't want to deduct any points for the minor flaws because the game is just so much fun to play nonetheless. I really think Sucker Punch nailed the setting – if Ubisoft ever comes around to doing an Assassin's Creed in feudal Japan, they'll have a lot to live up to. I'm not sure if they can top this, because Ghost of Tsushima is honestly the best Assassin's Creed I've ever played. With a bit of Uncharted climbing puzzles thrown in.

    The ideals of a samurai, the 7 ways of 武士道 are not just applicable to samurai, I think we all as humans should also apply them to our best in our lives to lead an internally and externally peaceful life. This is a game made to detox you from all the evils of the real world, bring peace to your mind so that you are ready for another day.

The best open world game since Witcher 3 in my opinion. The main story is strong with twists and turns that you may not expect but are not added for shock value. More like a great samurai movie. Most side quests are okay at best but the really great ones are those connected to certain characters and a couple of others that are longer and provide a feel of what the Witcher 3 brought us. This is by far the best looking PlayStation 4 game I have seen in a long time with such an amazing world to explore. To be fair though I am a fan of Japanese culture and open world games. Though even if you don’t like assassins creed type games this game does not have a level system so there is no grinding involved. If you want to just play the main story go for it. Definitely the true swan song of the ps4. Expand

This does not go to plan...to be fair the game would be rather short if it did. you find yourself having to build Jins skill set after the battle where he has a decision to make...fight as a samurai and maintain his honour and that of his clan or fight from the shadows as a ghost which goes against everything he was taught. Jin comes to the conclusion that he must win by any and all costs. I'm about 40 hours in so i would say I've already got my moneys worth. there is nothing worse than paying 50 quid and only getting about 23 hours game play out of a game. especially if it doesn't feel re playable. this game has options where you can make different builds for Jin meaning a few new playthroughs are on the cards. well done sucker punch. would have liked them to make it easier to scabbard your sword though. i give this game a 9 out of ten for visuals, story telling, things to do as well. cant give it a ten as there is no such thing as a perfect game. one last thing to games journos (whatever that job entails). moaning about cultural appropriation. this game is about story telling as most are. the fact that Japanese critics love this game shows the rest of you in wait for it...America (yes we all knew that was coming) as hacks who cant appreciate anything beautiful. I'm surprised they didn't bemoan the mongols for their colonialism and use of the slave trade...maybe they didn't care...maybe they aren't that educated while doing social studies degrees. who knows eh?

Este juego bien puede ser que no innova mucho pero se hace disfrutar a su manera el gameplay es muy satisfactorio y combinar tus reflejos con el uso de herramientas y posturas lo hace mucho mas interesante que un simple machaca-botones hasta ver como ganas las peleas. El escenario cambia mediante juegas por ej: si juegas en sigilo hay mas tormentas y lluvia o si juegas como un samurai con honor los cielos están mas despejados y puede parecer una tontería pero este tipo de cosas te hacen ver el juego de otra manera y disfrutarlo aún más.

    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.
