While the storm could end up impacting the Mongols at some point in the game, too, Jin will at least help it out significantly, fighting off the invading soldiers himself. This will require players to adopt a “samurai commando” fighting style , using stealth tactics and the Mongols’ bombs against them. Along with the historical changes, Sucker Punch noted at E3 2018 that the game’s Tsushima Island itself is being reinterpreted to better suit a video game, with added locations to provide players more points of interest. Fans will be able to learn more about the game’s historical roots after it’s released, as several of the Ghost of Tsushima special editions come with a director’s commentary that compares it to real life with the help of a Japanese histor
The final cherry on top of my pre-release anticipation for Ghost of Tsushima dlc|https://tsushimagame.com/ of Tsushima has also just been due to how serious Sucker Punch is taking the source material here. Developers at the studio have talked openly about how much research has gone into this project which has included multiple trips to Japan and working with actual swordmasters . Not to mention, the full game is going to feature optional Japanese voice acting with English subtitles to really entrench yourself in the experience even further. Aspects like this won’t make or break Ghost of Tsushima , but it shows just that Sucker Punch is committed to making this not just an enjoyable game, but one that is highly-authentic as w
**Ghost of Tsushima ** was finally given another trailer, this time during The Game Awards 2019 in December. The trailer shown off there is the extended version of the trailer initially shown off at PlayStation’s State of Play just two days before. That trailer teased a standoff between protagonist and samurai warrior, Jin Sakai, and a group of Mongol soldiers hauling a cart of goods in the woods. As the Mongol clan of soldiers gave out a warning and then charged, Jin brandished his samurai sword and pulled out what appeared to be a smoke bomb. This is where the State of Play trailer ends and The Game Awards trailer continues for _ Ghost of Tsushima
Details on the PS5’s launch are still a little scarce so the latter half of 2020 is more on the empty side for Sony as of now, but that could obviously all change with a PS5 reveal event . The first half of the year is going to be huge for the PS4 though, as it’s getting (and has gotten) a big exclusive title every month until June. In February, Sega’s _ Yakuza 5 _ and Sony’s own _ Dreams _ (by Media Molecule) launched on the PS4, but the games that most people have their eyes on start to come out in Ma
Sony’s upcoming Sucker Punch-developed samurai story, likely one of the PlayStation 4’s swan songs, is inspired by real events, but Ghost of Tsushima strays from history in a number of ways. Although Sucker Punch appears to have taken great care in nailing the game world’s authenticity to real-life Japan, Ghost of Tsushima’ s plot is, at least partially, purposely unfaith
The follow up to Team Ninja’s Nioh from 2017, Nioh 2 is looking to be the best in its class for 2020, perhaps even topping the plethora of Souls-like games from 2019 that flooded the market. To this day, the original Nioh is still one of the best games within the genre not made by From Software, so Nioh 2 has some big shoes to f
The next shots show the ghost, Jin, approaching a camp full of Mongol soldiers with stealthy tactics. The game is going to allow the player to survey areas before striking enemies, as Jin is seen on top of structures. As was already shown off during the E3 2018 demo, Jin is capable of _ Assassin’s Creed _ -like assassinations, as he jumps off of rooftops and slams his sword into his oppone
Last year, Seattle-based developer Sucker Punch Productions celebrated the 20th anniversary of their first game release, Rocket: Robot on Wheels for the Nintendo 64, which has likely become the developer’s only title to release on a non-Sony platform. After signing a deal with Sony in 2000, Sucker Punch went on to produce two prominent PlayStation-exclusive trilogies, starting with the stealth platformers of Sly Cooper on PS2, and followed by the open world super-powered adventures of InFamous that spanned across PS3 and PS4. The largely-positive receptions of the six games has led Sucker Punch to become one of Sony’s predominant first party developers alongside Naughty Dog and Insomniac, but since releasing Infamous: Second Son (and its spinoff First Light ) in 2014, the team has slowed down their release schedule as they work on their most ambitious game to date, Ghost of Tsushima. Originally revealed near the end of 2017, Sucker Punch has returned to the realm of open world journeys but turned the clock back to the 13th century, as one of the last samurai of ancient Japan looks to defend his people against the invading Mongols. With Sony yet to provide any hands-on opportunities with the title despite it being less than three months until release, one would be better suited to look back at Sucker Punch’s history and the strongest elements of their games to potentially determine the key lessons that went into developing Ghost of Tsushima.
