    Loved it, absolutely loved it. This is not a DLC it’s essential to understand Jin’s backstory and his past and his future too. EXCELLENTLY DONE!

    PS: This is my review after 100% everything in the island with regards to trophies. Do not just do the main story you’ll lose 60% of your experience I had. Explore the island and stories before beating the final boss! So MUCH JOY! Great story    Loved it, absolutely loved it.

    Joguei a versão do PS4 no ps5 e já me diverti muito, a expansão vem para mais conteúdo e histórias abertas da campanha principal sobre Jin e seu pai, estou me divertindo muito e parece que a expansão está longe de acabar, da até vontade de fazer uma campanha nova para rejogar o game

    The Iki Island expansion of Ghost of Tsushima provides a much needed step forward in this beautiful world Sucker Punch has created. If the first game focused on Jin coming to terms with himself, this game expands that very focus by having him move forward with that self.

Haunted by demons of the past, Jin goes on a compelling journey in the lion's den as he tries to settle his past and move forward to the future he wants. With new ways to fight, new stories to see, and new animals to pet, Iki Island serves as more of a mini-sequel than an expansion, leading to a highly satisfying conclusion that gave me a full game's experience in a short amount of time. I cannot wait to see what this team makes next!… Expand

    Ghost of Tsushima - Iki Island is a worthy expansion. In fact, it might be the best dlc I have ever experienced.

Enemies are also improved which makes combat more challenging.

    The entire experience was actually even better than the main story for me personally. Pros:
    - Atmosphere is amazing
    - The world itself
    - Good (back)story
    - Added gameplay mechanics
    - New type of enemies/improved enemies

    Cons:
    - The 9 main missions can be completed very fast. Maybe this is an issue when you buy the dlc as a ‘stand alone’ game but this is not an issue in the Directors Cut. Besides, there are a lot of sides stories to complete the Iki island expansion.    … Expand

    Iki Island is a thoughtful addition to an already amazing title. Taking a deeper look into jin's personal struggles with his past, this DLC brings new life to GoT with a meaningful story, expanded combat, and a new enemy that stands toe-to-toe with our beloved Jin Sakai. Fans of Ghost will not be disappointed.

    Great addition to an already incredible game. I'd say that after this DLC and the all the new Legends content, Ghost of Tsushima as a whole is a perfect game.

    FINAL VERDICT
    I give this game a solid 10/10. I bought the base PS4 version and I was ok to pay for the upgrade not only for the new expansion with Iki Island (which will take 10 to 15 hours to complete as a whole) but also for the revamp in the graphics, and audio. Go get it and become one of the most badass Shinobi!

The Amazing New Sarugami Armour is the strongest best armor in the game the new horse pouche is fantastic letting you store more ammunition the horse armor + the horse charge is literally the strongest ability in the game you literally don't need to get off your horse you run over everything i enjoyed every side quest all the mini games singing with the flute to monkeys cats deers petting them Jin's father Kazumasa's memory where fantastic to understand Jin's past and get to know his father the mythic tale The legend of black hand riku was my favoruite quest in the game you chace a mystic river and enter a legendary cave and the duel with black hand riku was legendary his moveset was so unique he is one of the hardest duels in the entire game and we get so much customization in this game for the katana armor sets from the iki island we get a new dye merchant i enjoyed doing the new temples the new use of the grappling hook the new charms make every build more versityle and potentn especially the new archery charm makes archer builds so op and the new archery contests mini games made me work up a good sweat it was a great challenge to test your archery skills to get all glowing lamps under 7 seconds there was quite a lot of mysteries on iki island and the dialogue of the eagle hallucinations is huge true almost the entire iki island she had something new to say depending on what your doing if you wear the mongle armour she calls you a sneaking cowerd a shame to the sakai family i really loved to see lord adachi Masakou's husband and the relationship of Jin as a young man with his father Kazumasa i adored all new characters Like Tenzo who has lost everything because of the Sakai invasion i really don't blame Tenzo for what he did both sides where to blame the sakai clan and the raiders its war Fune the leader of the raiders was kind of arragont at the start calling Jin a clown but i started to recpect her as a leader and like her as a human being the more i learned about her Jin was finally able to forgive himself that he didn't save his father because he finally understood his father and Jin finally showed that he is not like his father and he moved on without regrets.

    Brilliant expansion, great stealth mechanics and even better combat. The visuals are amazing and the performance is very consistent. Just like the main game the story is amazing and extremely immersive, I can't think if a single thing wrong with this expansion.

    Although mostly think this dlc is a little bit pricey, as a developer I consider it as a just(to low) price, for what it delivered. Great expanse of the game in the perfect time. Loved every inch of iki island as the main 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.
