Sony has received endless praise this console generation for the number of stellar first-party titles that it has released, and rightly so. Games like God of War , Horizon Zero Dawn , and Marvel's Spider-Man stand as some of the most well-received from both critics and fans alike over the past few years. But for all of Sony's success in the PS4 era, I think what I've personally loved the most from the PlayStation brand is its willingness to publish new
In terms of Ghost of Tsushima , Khotun Khan is a cunning and ruthless general of the Mongol Empire. He leads and commands a massive fleet of ships and soldiers in the first invasion of Japan's Tsushima Island. To achieve total victory, Khotun relies on his knowledge of the Samurai way to ultimately destroy them. The Great Khan is voiced by Patrick Gallag
From a historical perspective, Khotun Khan appears to be based on Kublai Khan, who was the Great Khan of the Mongol Empire during this time. Although he was technically the fifth Khagan of the Mongol Empire, Kublai's reign is known for his founding of the Yuan dynasty in China after conquering it and ruled until his death in 1294. He was able to expand the borders of the empire from the Pacific Ocean all the way west to the Black
When the flashback ends and Jin is left standing as the victor of the standoff with just one soldier left lying before him, he lets him go as a message. Before readjusting his samurai facial armor and heading off, he stands for one last glamour shot, with the trailer officially dubbing him the ghost. What is interesting to note is the potential implementation of facial armor as a game mechanic. If the samurai of feudal Japan used these masks to scare off enemies, then maybe masks in this game will play a similar role (besides defen
Sucker Punch has set the bar very high for themselves with their past success making Sly Cooper and Infamous games. Throughout three generations of PlayStation consoles, the developer has been a mainstay for gamers on the platform. It seems like Ghost of Tsushima is up to the challenge of raising the bar higher than ever before, as Sucker Punch looks to cap off the PlayStation 4 with perhaps it's last AAA exclus
The next shots show the Ghost Of Tsushima Walkthrough|Https://Tsushimagame.Com/, 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
The highly anticipated Ghost of Tsushima has just become a lot more appealing to old school gamers thanks to the way players will explore the world, as there won’t be any certain waypoints to rely on. This will bring the game closely in line with the exploration of iconic titles like The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind , which challenged its players in similar w
A steady flow of information is building up the way towards the June release of Ghost of Tsushima . Just recently, the contents of the Collector's Edition have been revealed, and it's going to be juicy. There's a replica of the face mask the main hero, Jin Sakai, wears in the game, a cloth map, and a war banner. Considering the global situation, physical editions might be delayed, but right now, there's no evidence the game will be postponed to a later date. However, players have already expressed their fears about that potential outcome online, so it's on their minds moving closer to rele
Jin tries to walk over to pick up his sword but is then shot with an arrow once more by a sniper way out in the distance. The narrator states that "some say he died," as the arrow strikes him down. The next shot contradicts this as he is seen riding a horse through a wide open field. This is where the gameplay is shown off in the trailer, as the first bit of playable action that is shown is the horse riding through the fi
Sucker Punch is one of the most admired developers in the gaming industry, and perhaps best known for creating the Sly Cooper and Infamous series of games. In 2011, Sony purchased Sucker Punch to produce games exclusively for PlayStation. Sucker Punch has always worked within short development windows, with the longest period in between releasing games being four years. The length between the release of the Studio's last game Infamous First Light and the scheduled release of Ghost of Tsushima will be six years, prompting some to wonder if the game would be better off debuting on the PlayStation
The setting of Ghost of Tsushima takes place during the first invasion of Japan by the Mongol Empire . In the few trailers fans have already seen, the game seems to show the Mongols having a lot of success on Tsushima Island, basically razing it to the ground. In actuality, this event appears to be largely t
I'm also just stoked for Ghost of Tsushima though because, hey, I love action games. If you know my gaming tastes whatsoever, you're probably aware that I have become obsessed with the Souls games in recent years. Other standout favorites of mine from recent memory include Judgment , Assassin's Creed Odyssey , and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice . While I'm unsure of how much DNA Ghost of Tsushima will share with games like this, based on the extended gameplay demo we saw in 2018, I got some major Batman: Arkham , Assassin's Creed , and Sekiro vibes. If Ghost of Tsushima's final version is anything close to games like these, I'm all
