Ghost of Tsushima feels like a tech demo–a showcase of the PlayStation 4’s graphical capabilities, especially through its hefty photo mode and the sheer amount of things you can have on the screen at the same time.

Ghost of Tsushima offers an amazing open-world experience and satisfying combat, only mildly held back by its writing and characters.

Ghost of Tsushima is a wonderful homage to classic Samurai movies. It's not a historically accurate epic, but it's not claiming to be. What the game lacks in a fresh core story and an occasional lack of polish, it more than makes up for with engaging gameplay, a gorgeous world to explore, an exciting setting and characters you'll grow to love.

Ghost of Tsushima is a gorgeous game that has Sucker Punch taking its shot at telling its own samurai story. The combat feels great; and you have a lot of freedom when it comes to building up Jin. It’s simply a stunning way to say goodbye to the PS4.

Tradition, pride, honor. The game starts with this words and is clear their matrix: not the historically accurate Samurai, but the Kurosawa's ones. Kurosawa ispired the western genre and so it's fair that the Far West came back to East.

Sucker Punch has matured over the years to not only make one of the best games of the year but also to create a title that many Japanese Studios did not have the courage to do. A Western title that is only the result of the love of its creators for Japan Culture.

Every duel starts with you pushing up the katana with your thumb and it’s freaking rad.

It is easily one of the best games of the entire PS4 generation, and given its competition, that’s saying something.

After a short delay due to current world affairs, we finally got our hands on what is an amalgam of several different genres and games. Part open world action game, part combat simulator, a little For Honor and a lot of Assassin’s Creed. Throw it in the oven and out pops Ghost of Tsushima. And let me say, it tastes delicious.

The game has the look of a thoughtful samurai epic, but the façade flakes under scrutiny.

Overall, Ghost of Tsushima is a gorgeous and highly engaging narrative adventure, with some rote open world activities and small frustrations in combat.

Ghost of Tsushima isn't just the Ultimate Samurai dream coming true, but it's one of the best open world titles of this generation. Combination of Great storytelling, Top Notch Level Design, brilliant Combat design, jaw dropping Graphics and a flawless world, have resulted in a way that none of us could have imagined. Ghost of Tsushima, Sucker Punch's greatest creation, Pinpoints and fixes lots of open world games' Design Errors and does a great job in making a world that we all can get lost and live in. If you want to fulfill the dream of being a samurai, living in one of the greatest video game worlds ever made and experiencing an awesome and heroic/historic redemption tales, go and enjoy this one hell of game. The most epic swansong for sony's 8th generation of gaming.

Ghost of Tsushima is the perfect closure to the PlayStation 4 life cycle. The Sucker Punch development team has given its best in recreating feudal Japan, albeit not historically accurate. But the important thing for the title is not to immerse the player in that historical period, but more to recreate the mood in which the samurai lived at the time. And this was done excellently, even if the combat system has a big problem with the camera. This and the repetition in the long run are the only two flaws of this title which is visually a feast for the eyes. So, in conclusion, Ghost of Tsushima is a stylish "end" to the PlayStation 4 generation, waiting for the next console.

The attempt to tackle both stealth and combat creates a game that never really quite manages to fully get a grasp on either.

It is a fantastic finishing touch for what seems like the latest exclusive to PlayStation 4 thanks to a beautiful and outstanding open world, which is accompanied by a playable proposal that although it does not invent anything, manages to entertain during the time that our fight lasts for expelling the Mongol invaders from Tsushima.

I would recommend Ghost of Tsushima to almost everyone. This game is graphically and musically superb and the acts along the story have an excellent execution. It is the perfect game, if you want to enter in the life of medieval Japan and to be a Samurai.

Ghost of Tsushima remains one of the most thrilling and entertaining open-world games to release this generation. It captures the feeling of Samurai perfectly through fantastic combat and fine details. It handles exploration in a way that does away with GPS style mini maps and radars while offering a great deal of quality content through and through. While it isn’t perfect, it’s still a humble ending for the current generation of PlayStation games.

Ghost of Tsushima is the best Sucker Punch game to date. Anyone who is a fan of the developer, or samurai games in general, should not hesitate to pick this one up.
