    Ghost of Tsushima returns with the Iki island expansion and it’s great!

    The expansion focuses on Jin Sakai coming to iki island and overcoming his past on how he let his father die. The iki islands story isn’t long at all with a run time of 2hrs on average but whatever it lacks in the story area, it adds up to the incredible scenery of iki island.

There are plenty of side objectives to complete and new enemy types like the shaman who boosts his fellow companies with health and damage.

    If you are playing on the PS5 then you’ll be happy to hear that the controller feels amazing! With ever bow shot to every area you tread, you’ll feel it through the controller!

    Long story short the iki island expansion is an incredible way to get back into Ghost Of Tsushima, especially for the PS5. From amazing scenery to the Silky smooth gameplay, it’ll be a worthwhile expansion to quench your thirst.    … Expand

    Amazing expansion. Loved the story and haptics. The new additions to combat enhanced the game so much.

    An overrated addition to the base game that contributes basically nothing to the overall quality of the game.

    Where some expansions expand on the gameplay with core changes and new systems, Ghost of Tsushima's Iki Island acts more like an extension of the main game loved by so many - with only minor yet appreciated tweaks. For the most part, in conjunction with changes to enemy combat skills and exploration, along with turning your horse into a weapon, playing through Iki fits wonderfully into this originally three-act epic as a welcome fourth. Ever so slightly dusted with imperfections, the captivating story, combat, graphics, and soundtrack are all still among the very best PlayStation exclusives have to offer, mostly overshadowing any grievances.

    If you’re looking for 10-15 hours more of Ghost of Tsushima but with a greater emphasises on the inner struggles of Jin and an exploration of his backstory coupled with some meaty side quests, cat petting and disgustingly stunning scenery, you really can’t go wrong with taking on the island of Iki.

    Despite those shortcomings, there’s no question that Ghost of Tsushima Iki Island is an entertaining overall experience and I’m confident most players will find it worth the asking price; in particular, because the story strengthens Jin’s character arc by shining a light on an aspect of his youth not particularly well explained in the base game. For that reason, it works as an adventure played alongside the base game, and equally as an engaging new chapter for those playing it after the fact.
