'Ghost of Tsushima' (PS4) Goes Gold

by Rainier on June 22, 2020 @ 11:59 a.m. PDT

Ghost Of Tsushima is a sprawling, open-world samurai game set in feudal Japan where you play as a battered samurai, fighting back against overwhelming odds.

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, samurai warrior Jin Sakai stands as one of the last surviving members of his clan.

He is resolved 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.

The power and confidence of the Mongol Empire coming face to face with pure, lethal, samurai determination.

Sucker Punch revealed that Ghost of Tsushima has gone gold and is ready for duplication.

"This is the culmination of years of hard work from our team and we can’t wait to get it into your hands on July 17!"

A pre-order of any edition (including the Launch Edition at select retailers) gets you some bonuses — a Jin avatar, a digital mini soundtrack featuring select songs from the game, and a Jin PS4 dynamic theme based on our box art.

Digital Deluxe Edition ($69.99 USD / 89.99 CAD)

If you want to go fully digital, you can now pre-order Ghost of Tsushima at PlayStation Store. You’ll also find our Digital Deluxe Edition, which includes a digital copy of the game along with the Hero of Tsushima skin set, which provides an additional in-game horse, saddle, mask, sword, and armor set for Jin*. The Digital Deluxe also includes two in-game items: the Charm of Hachiman’s Favor and one technique point (unlocked via story progression), as well as a Samurai PS4 dynamic theme. There’s also a digital mini art book by Dark Horse, plus our Director’s Commentary, in which our creative team sits down with a renowned Japanese historian to look at the world of Ghost of Tsushima and how it compares to the real-life events that inspired it.

The physical Special Edition ($69.99 USD / 89.99 CAD) includes a SteelBook case plus a voucher for an in-game Hero of Tsushima mask and sword skin (unlocked via story progression), Charm of Hachiman’s Favor, one technique point, the Director’s Commentary, and the digital mini art book.

Collector’s Edition ($169.99 USD / $219.99 CAD)

The Collector’s Edition has a replica mask, a re-creation of one you’ll wear in the game, and it’s heavy (made from polyresin). It’s not meant to be worn, but it includes an individually-numbered display stand so you can keep it on a shelf to impress your friends or terrify your enemies. On top of that, there’s also a sashimono (war banner) just like you’ll see in the game that’s nearly 4.5 feet long, and a traditional-style furoshiki (wrapping cloth). You’ll also get a copy of the game with a SteelBook case, a physical 48-page mini art book by Dark Horse, and an artistic rendition of our full world map printed on cloth. Also included is a voucher for all of the digital content from the Digital Deluxe Edition listed above.

Ghost of Tsushima is coming to PS4 on July 17, 2020.
