Ghost of Tsushima is an action game set in feudal Japan. Players take the role of Jin Sakai, a samurai risking everything to defend Tsushima from the Mongol invaders pillaging the land. Players travel the Japanese countryside helping civilians and defending them from the Mongol invaders. Frequent sword battles take place in 3rd person melee and ranged combat. Successful attacks can result in dismemberment and decapitation, often accompanied by large blood-splatter effects. Players can also use stealth to take out enemies unseen, with assassination kills. Cinematics and other scenes show other examples of intense violence and gore, including a scene where a civilian is burned alive, a scene showing a person beheaded and the decapitated man’s head held up towards the camera. Red blood can be seen in environments, on clothing, and spraying from successful attacks.

If you ever wanted to be a samurai, play this game. If you like movies like Seven Samurai and Ran, play this game. If you like good video games, play this game. If you want an action packed story that muses on the ethics of war, the value of honour and the fickleness of mankind, play this game.
Probably the cleanest, most optimized and smooth port to PC I've ever played. Loading a continued game literally takes 5 seconds. (Very) occasional bugs, but nothing that breaks the game. Sword fighting is fun and the boss battles are intense on hard+. The map is huge; keeping you busy for crazy hours. If you enjoy samurai games or just like fighting, then this game is for you!
