Here's what they're saying about Ghost of Tsushima
The Ghost of Tsushima comes out this Friday, publishers such as Polygon, IGN, and host of others have already reviewed the game, giving it a decent rating. From seeing a glimpse of the actual gameplay, the game looks visually stunning and worthy of the $65 price point.
Here's what known gaming websites are saying about the game, in quotes.
"Ghost of Tsushima is an enormous and densely packed samurai adventure that often left me completely awestruck with both its visual spectacle and excellent combat."
-IGN
"Ghost of Tsushima's story hits hard in the game's third and final act, and ends in spectacular fashion. It left me with the same kinds of strong emotions I felt at the end of all my favorite samurai film epics, and had me eager to watch them all again. The game hits a lot of fantastic cinematic highs, and those ultimately lift it above the trappings of its familiar open-world quest design and all the innate weaknesses that come with it--but those imperfections and dull edges are definitely still there."
-Gamespot
"These are minor complaints in a game that gave me packed days and nights of adventure and storytelling, made me shed a tear and Google grief support groups, and gave me a new love for the history and traditions of feudal Japan."
-Gamesradar
"Despite (or perhaps because of) Ghost of Tsushima's reliance on combat to drive many of its set pieces, the game's best mission requires almost no combat. At various points in the game, Jin learns of local legends that lead to great rewards, like a robe that improves your archery skills or the ability to light your katana on fire. The latter requires climbing a massive mountain, atop which supposedly sits a meteor with the ability to imbue blades with flames."
