WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!!! It is no secret that Ghost of Tsushima is my favourite game. The 2020 release just jumped into my heart and after playing it twice, I love it more than ever. What is not to love? Gorgeous visuals, brilliant storytelling, flawless combat….Need I say more? So naturally I was excited to jump into the Iki Island Expansion …
In full circle news, Ghost of Tsushima is now set to get a feature film adaptation, with none other than John Wick's Chad Stahelski attached to direct. Sony officially confirmed the news on its blog, detailing that Uncharted movie producer PlayStation Productions will handle development duties on this big screen adaptation that Sucker Punch will also serve as executive producers on.
With just about everyone loving the game as well, and Jin Sakai’s adventure ending on a tantalising hook (depending on which action you chose), Ghost of Two-shima is one sequel that I’d love to see made.
There are prizes that some outlets are too scared to hand out to other games, but fret not!

HADES WAS ROBBED! Sorry I just had to get that out of my system. Critical Hit’s favourite game of the year may have only won two top nods at the Game Awards last night, but it was admittedly up against the stiffest of competition last night. In a year that saw no shortage of excellence, Naughty Dog’s tale of post-apocalyptic …
What was the best game of 2020? Which game excelled in multiple fields, combined them all together, and let loose a ferocious flurry of blows to your expectations? The answer this year was obvious
Arguably (but fairly accepted) the best console of the now previous generation, the PlayStation 4 had a pretty stellar year to mark its send-off down the river Styx. With two massive first-party releases and a wealth of exclusive third-party content, it was certainly a good time to own a PS4 as you wiped a tear from your eye knowing this …
We’re living in an age where photorealistic games aren’t too far beyond the realm of possibility. Every year video game visuals evolve in leaps and bounds, further lessening the uncanny valley gap and coming oh so close for being recognised as a slice of real life. But video game graphics aren’t just about realism.
Only one game could claim the top spot in the action hierarchy though, but it had a heck of a fight on its hands to do so when 2020 kicked off.
When awards are handed out this year for various games, Sucker Punch’s Ghost of Tsushima definitely deserves to be in the consideration for many a prize. It has style, it has a fantastic world, and it has hands-down the best swordplay ever seen in a video game since Kyle Katarn began slicing up Stormtroopers in Jedi Outcast.
Samurai showdowns are going to look smoother than ever on the PS5.
Get ready to feel the Samurai Spirit all over again in Ghost of Tsushima: Legends on October 16.
There’s something just magical about stepping into a game world and not knowing exactly …
