Stunning open-world samurai adventure
Ghost of Tsushima is an open-world action-adventure set during the Mongol invasion of Tsushima Island in 1274. As samurai Jin Sakai, you must abandon the warrior code and forge a new path—the way of the Ghost—to protect your homeland. The game features gorgeous landscapes inspired by classic samurai cinema, with a unique guiding wind mechanic that replaces traditional waypoints. Combat is deeply satisfying, with multiple fighting stances optimized for different enemy types, and the Kurosawa Mode adds a cinematic black-and-white filter.
