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.

Ghost of Tsushima is a beautiful and satisfying game. While it doesn’t feel like a revelation in innovation, it’s an improvement of existing models. We’ve already experienced the joys of the open world concept, but Ghost takes everything we’re familiar with and does it better.

Despite being infatuated with all sanbox tropes and mechanics possible, Ghost of Tsushima is polished and rewarding experience. It does justice to feudal japanese culture and bows to master Kurosawa with style.

Ghost of Tsushima makes it easy to immerse yourself in this dark and historical setting. The story’s pacing is expertly tuned to how the player wishes to take it on, and the controls allow actions to be both fluid and responsive. The enemy AI could definitely use some attention, and the menus are exceptionally vast, but in the end, I was glad to find something that reminded me I was playing a video game because there were moments I forgot.

Ghost of Tsushima does not stray away from your typical AAA Open World game, but it does some small changes and improvements that make it a lot more pleasant and fun than other games in the genre. The game's combat is satisfying (the stealth is not), and it's got one of the most beautiful worlds I've ever had the pleasure to play in.

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.

Ghost of Tsushima embraces many of the addictive-but-unrewarding elements endemic to the Assassin’s Creed series while telling a story about characters who are genuinely interesting until their dramatic arcs become cartoonishly melodramatic. It’s a passable, often lovely ride, but poor camera controls, awful physics, and terrible mission design frequently spoil the fun.

Not only is it one one of the most beautiful games I’ve ever played, but it’s probably the most immersive open world game I’ve ever experienced. This is a rare gem that is not only a piece of art, but also incredibly fun and satisfying to play.

Ghost of Tsushima is the latest Sucker Punch play. An outstanding game that presents us with the most trustworthy and beautiful feudal Japan that we can remember. A game made with respect and affection, that although it is not as revolutionary as it appears, if it meets the most important premise, fun.

Ghost of Tsushima treats the era with respect. The solemn approach to an open world is Sucker Punch’s best game yet.

This ronin rumble is a gaming masterpiece for the second half of 2020 and the perfect PlayStation 4 capstone title. Ghost of Tsushima is as close as you can get to the perfect Kurosawa tribute in modern interactive form.

Ghost of Tsushima is a strong farewell for the PlayStation 4. It does fall victim to some of the traps we’ve seen in other open-world games of its ilk, but its engrossing combat, strong sense of progression and well-crafted narrative make it an experience that open-world fans — or those interested in what it has to offer — are sure to enjoy.

As the swan song of the PS4 generation, Ghost of Tsushima is suitably a mishmash of many of the generation’s biggest things with a sprinkle of new ideas.

From start to finish, Ghost of Tsushima honors the samurai and Japanese culture to the utmost degree. Coupled with a great combat system with risks/rewards, a wonderfully crafted world to explore gives players more reasons to explore every nook and cranny of Tsushima. Ghost of Tsushima is the swan song of the PS4, a title that takes full advantage of the hardware while delivering an experience to remember.

Overall, Ghost of Tsushima offers a beautiful and engaging experience, taking full advantage of its serene setting and gorgeous set pieces. Combat offers plenty of freedom and can be both intense and incredibly violent in some moments. It’s definitely outside of the box for Sucker Punch, but the gamble seems to have paid off

Ghost of Tsushima is an platform exclusive like it should be and it reminds me why I'm still a PlayStation child at heart. It depicts a wonderful world with deep variety, detail and atmosphere, tells a lot of stories that never disappoint in quality and has a complex gameplay that seems polished and made with a lot of love. Even with a few flaws regarding bugs and some repetitive elements, Sucker Punch have proven that they've been so ready for something new!

He manages to transport us from our sofa to a time where honor and loyalty were a way of life, where landscapes are tinged with gold and ocher and the most that a man aspired to was forging his own legend, that is, without a doubt, The best that can be said about Ghost of Tsushima.

Ghost of Tsushima is a true homage to Japanese history and culture, and another excellent game from a PlayStation first-party studio. With the most beautiful open world of the generation, and a rigorous, precise, and rewarding combat system, this game presents several refreshing and ingenious ideas that make it a very immersive experience. It is a game that does almost everything right, and one which will give fans of action games and samurai-based entertainment everything they could wish for. Ghost of Tsushima is a perfect example of the overwhelming quality of PlayStation 4’s exclusives and an amazing curtain call of an excellent generational cycle.

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.
