    De fato o jogo está espetacular...a melhora gráfica muito nitida e ainda tem essa bela DLC. Está valendo muito a pena rejogar a história base desde o início e reviver essa maravilha.
    Dou nota 9/10. Parabéns Sony!!

    One of the best games on PlayStation. If you haven’t played the PS4 version, then you’re in for a real treat. If you have, then this is a wonderful experience to relive with haptics and upgraded graphics and performance. I recommend the Japanese voices! In this version they have the Japanese synced to their lips!

    The addition of iki island makes this an already great game greater. Was surprised with the horse charging mechanic and its implementation. The visuals are topnotch. The new sarugami armor brings a new playstyle to the table. And did I mention the visuals? every few meters I'd stop in awe.

    I have been playing ps4 version of ghost of tsushima on my ps5. As soon as I downloaded and played ps5 dc version I immediately see the jump in graphics and gameplay improvements. The dual sense features are implemented in JIN's movement, sword and most of interaction. 3d audio is nicely implemented in following guiding wind.

    All these 0/10 ratings are completely bogus. The game was fantastic before, and the DC has brought some noticeable and welcome changes. Iki island is a short story path, but the island itself has lots to explore. 3D audio, dual sense features, and noticeable resolution bump push this over the top from a 9 to an easy 10.

    Gameplay is improved with more advanced AI, who will change weapons mid combat requiring you to adjust your approach to face the enemy. As well as shamans who will buff the enemy making a lethal play through even more costly if you mistime your attack or defence during combat. More gear is unlockable through armour, charms etc bringing new ways to play the game. Grapple hook also enhanced to help traverse around camps more easily to plan the perfect ambush. Horse mechanic also upgrades so that your loyal companion can join in the fight taking down crowds of mongols in no time.

    After spending more than 1000 hours GOT PS4 I was excited to play the PS5 version.

My only complain is that it seems there are no significant graphical upgrade from the last gen version except for resolution bump. However the game is still pretty with the different locations. Where the PS5 version shines is the use of it’s features. Loading screen has almost gone. It take from 1 second or between 2 to 3 seconds to load depending on the location you are fast travelling to. Very impressive. I never thought I would say that but I miss the tips from loading screen of the PS4 version with the beautiful art style. My most anticipated featured was the Dualsense implementation. You get a feedback from almost everything from the game: menu screen, cutscenes, rolling, riding on wood bridge or rock from your horse, sword clashing and even when playing the flute. Did it surpass Astro Playroom? I don’t know but its very good. It will be hard to go to PS4 version to collect remaining trophies of Iki Island. The Director’s Cut comes with the above mentioned expansion and it does not disappoint. Like the main game, the new island has beautiful location to explore. My favorite is simply scaling the white marble like cliff. Iki introduce new activities to do outside the main quest like the Archer mastery challenge that will test your skills or the animal sanctuary that will provide with new charms that will change your play style. Speaking of which, two new mythic tales to get awesome rewards from both. The first one is horse armor to charge towards your enemies. I truly believe this feature was missing from the main game. The second one will get you a new armor for Jin that make gameplay comes with risk reward situation. Least to say its my new favorite armor. I started a NG+ to play with it. Since the PS5 version dropped, I have noticed some drop in quality of matchmaking in Legends mode. In average it takes longer to have a match. In average between 1m30 to 3m. Also during a match, if a player has left a session and you select “ search other player for matchmaking” to bring a new player during the session, it never works. It keep searching but no one comes in. This happened in 100% matches that a player has left. Sucker Punch will need to add an option to turn off adaptive trigger for hunter class only. ( I don’t want to use the general one as I love it in the main campaign ) Overall I 100% recommend GOT DC for any new player.… Expand

    La historia que incluye en la isla de Ikki es increíble. 20 horas de juego extras que ponen en broche de oro a un juego que ya era bueno. La historia nueva y las mejoras justifican el precio completo. El mejor juego que he probado en mi vida. Ahora funciona a 4k prácticamente reales, a 60fps estables...

    An absolute masterpiece and in my personal opinion it should’ve gotten more recognition in the GOTY awards back in 2020. But TLOU2 was actually deserving of it more so no regrets. But this game is so good now with extra graphics and fps boost alongside the incredible Dualsense experience that it definitely deserves another shot at GOTY & I hope it will. 11/10

No form of media deserves to get review bombed because people are spiteful and have nothing better to do.

    Positive feedback: I personally liked the game, and for those who are willing to spend $20-30 on the new content, I highly recommend it. If you don’t care about the PS5 features then save the $10. Visually the game is beautiful. I personally like the haptic feedback from the controller, I don’t find it gimmicky. Negatives: Some side missions are a bit boring and may seem similar, but unless you’re a completionist they’re not mandatory to do if you don’t find it fun. As I said before the game is beautiful, but I don’t really notice much of a difference between how it was on the PS4 version over the current. You can overall expect a good looking game. I don’t really care about the price, it didn’t upset me and no one held a gun to my head telling me I had to purchase it. If you’re on the fence over it, maybe wait until it goes on sale. Sony puts out sales constantly and it won’t be long until this game is discounted.

    Overall, I hope whoever took the time out to read this looks at this and other reviews objectively and continue enjoying video games. It’s a fun game and worth buying.    … Expand

    Almost perfect game made better. Feels refreshed. The haptic support alone is worth the upgrade… FLUTE HAPTICS. Paywall? Y’all can’t afford $10 to get the next gen features? The graphics are the same, the game is the same… don’t hate on an amazing game because of your principles.

    One of my favorite games ever just got better. Glad to have more. The devs have really outdone themselves. I can see the fake people are at it with the review bombing and frankly this game is well done. Is it for everyone? No probably not but it's incredible and amazing for the people that want this kind of game. Can't wait to see what the future brings. With this company and for Ghost.

    This is by far one of the best PS4 game. Now that’s on ps5 the graphics are even better. I don’t mind the extra $10 upgrade to support the dev. The rumbles are next gen and it’s not your basic generic rumble. You can feel the horse and the the guiding wind through the controller. If you haven’t play the game, it’s a must.

The japanese lip sync is fantastic makes the real time scenes feel like a movie playing in real time all thanks to the powerful GPU of the PS5 and the fastest SSD on the planet.There is a few really nice additions like the option to remap controls to melee attack like sekiro dark souls light attack R1 heavy attack R2 and you can hide your quiver to make your armor sets look even more dope and don't make me start on how much you can customize your look in this game and the lock on as an option further improves the game and the combat which this game has one of the best combat systems and abilities in gaming history. The only few things that could have made this better is if sucker punch upgraded the graphics if they made this more than a simple remaster because there is a small change to graphics but its minor its just a normal remaster and i feel like Iki island could have used a few more mythic tales and more new abilities but the lenght of it is fine people its the lenght of a full game its one of the best expansions i have played right up there with Witcher 3 blood and wine Hearts Of Stone Monster hunter world Iceborne expansions and after the ps5 version came out the game stablity isn't as good as before the game is definitely more buggy than before director's cut it was almost ideal with minor bugs the armor builds sets take a few seconds to load but in general the load times of the game are blazing fast. I can see the angry xbots placing bad reviews some of them say they are tired of RPGS this is not an RPG its an action adventure open world game the other xbot says he played the ps4 version 11 months ago but Ghost of tsushima released 2020 july 17 1 year 1 month 5 days ago so he hasn't played it at all i'm,sure most of the xbots haven't played this game which i have platinumed i don't know how metacritic is allowing the angry xbox mob to review bomb this game they are not even trying to hide the fact that they are review bombing this game by calling us ponies and saying Microsoft pro consumer Sucker punch robbed me lackluster short DLC no improvements 70$ gamepass Xbox good Sony bad Sony robbing their fanbase they are taking their frustration on a beautifully crafted masterpiece which they will never experience on xbox because halo infinite will come out half baked without campaign co op and forge and it will flop.

If you have always dreamed of a game that gives you that Samurai / Ninja fantasy — you will love this game! This game doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it’s highly polished and been made with a lot of love for the subject matter. The combat is excellent, incredibly well animated and skill based. The stealth is satisfying, with a decent collection of items that can be employed giving that player a good number of options. Ultimately the stealth is let down at times by some poor AI. It’s not the worst, but it can be pretty dumb at times. I’ve played alot of stealth games my time and am along time Tenchu fan and I enjoy the stealth in this game. But don’t go in expecting Splinter Cell. Story is decent, held up mostly by some significant performances. Could of used fleshing out a bit more but some pretty strong emotional beats along the way that are noteworthy. The DLC — is worth the money. If you love GoT then IKI Island is a no brainer. Perhaps a wee bit light on actual new features or mechanics, but then this is not a sequel, it just a story expansion.… Expand

    Well done update for a great game. Lots of new content is complemented by a ton of new gameplay elements. More content was missing from the basic game, otherwise there was nothing to complain about. And now everything is fine. Reason to buy Playstation 5 if you don't already have one.

    Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut has improved the graphic of the game greatly. The newly added Iki Island brings new stories and challenges, and further extended the story background. For players who have already cleared the game, playing the Director's Cut version is still an unforgettable experience.

    It’s more of a regular DLC paired with some improvements for the PS5 rather than a true director’s cut. However, the developers do deserve praise for how skillfully they inserted the expansion into the narrative of the base game. The story about Jin’s past and the sins of ancestors is great (as opposed to boring side quests), new enemies pose a challenge, and the game as a whole shines on PS5’s more powerful hardware. I wish the visual improvements were more noticeable though. [11/2021, p.31]
