In 2014, Sucker Punch Productions had just finished shipping First Light, the final expansion to Infamous Second Son and were looking for their next big project. They wanted to move on from the Infamous Franchise and were looking for some inspiration for a new IP with a heavy emphasis on melee combat. The team was inspired by samurai cinema and wanted to make a game based on feudal Japan. And so they collaborated with Japan Studio and made a couple visits to Tsushima Island to experience the culture and ensure that the game they planned to make was as historically authentic as possible. Six years later, their vision came to fruition as Ghost of Tsushima launched as a PlayStation exclusive to critical acclaim and sold almost 10 million copies over the next two years. I remember all of the excitement around Ghost of Tsushima, with players calling it a Japanese Assassins Creed. But for some reason, I never got around to playing it. It seemed like the perfect fit, with modern assassins creeds at the time lacking the stealth gameplay the series was known for, Ghost of Tsushima seemingly offered an alternative gameplay wise while still providing a completely new experience embedded in Japanese culture and historical accuracy. With the PC port coming this year, I felt that this was finally the time that I experienced Tsushima Island for the first time in all it’s glory, going in completely blind to see if it lived up to the hype all those years ago.. This is Ghost of Tsushima.
