GhostsofTsushima is 'an action-packed homage to filmmakers like Akira Kurosawa and Kenji Mizoguchi': Read The Hollywood Reporter's game review
is a brand-new story set in feudal Japan, a period with surprisingly little representation in the world of video gaming. unfold amid the Mongol invasion of Japan in 1274 A.D. You play as the samurai Jin Sakai, nephew to the Jito of Tsushima, Lord Shimura. As the Khotun Khan-led Mongols land, the samurai of the island gather to defend their home, but they are quickly slaughtered by the ruthless, and far more numerous, invaders.
The game takes massive creative liberties with the history surrounding the Mongol invasions of Tsushima. None of the samurai clans mentioned during the game are authentic, and Khotun Khan, Jin and all the other significant characters are entirely fictional. Sucker Punch developers considered using historical figures but, according to an interview withOther aspects of the game are authentic, though.
Video games have struggled from time to time in depicting melee combat with multiple foes, often relying on a cumbersome lock-on system to assist players. In, you can end up fighting five to 10 enemies at a time, which might sound overwhelming. However, all it takes is a simple push in the direction of the enemy you want to fight, and the game takes care of the rest.
