During the Mongol invasion of Tsushima, you play as samurai Jin Sakai, who must find a way to protect the island and its people. His journey pits the samurai code he was raised to follow against the need to use unconventional tactics.
Fight with a katana, changing stances to counter different enemy types, or use bows and tools to attack from a distance or move through enemy territory unseen. Explore the island, take on story missions and character tales, and follow the wind to find your next destination.
Unlock techniques and improve weapons and armor as you progress. The Director’s Cut includes the Iki Island expansion, while Legends offers a separate cooperative multiplayer mode.
Players often praise the responsive, satisfying sword combat, the striking landscapes, and the story of Jin’s struggle between honor and survival. Many also enjoy exploring with the wind as a guide and following character-focused side stories. Some reviews find the opening slow or the open-world activities repetitive, so enthusiasm for the exploration loop varies.
For the very first time on PC, play through Jin Sakai’s journey and discover the complete Ghost of Tsushima experience in this Director’s Cut.
In the late 13th century, the Mongol empire has laid waste to entire nations along their campaign to conquer the East. Tsushima Island is all that stands between mainland Japan and a massive Mongol invasion fleet led by the ruthless and cunning general, Khotun Khan.
As the island burns in the wake of the first wave of the Mongol assault, courageous samurai warrior Jin Sakai stands resolute. As one of the last surviving members of his clan, Jin is resolved to do whatever it takes, at any cost, to protect his people and reclaim his home. He must set aside the traditions that have shaped him as a warrior to forge a new path, the path of the Ghost, and wage an unconventional war for the freedom of Tsushima.
