This looks like a PS5 game when it comes to loading times. It's astonishing how fast it is given how big and detailed the world is. This is weird because Days Gone is also a first-party title but it seems broken in comparison (also in terms of frame rate and pop in). It also shows that other open-world games like RDR2 and TW3 have looong load times, despite the former taking 100 gigs of space.

The loading times are so fast that its hard to fully read the text that appears in between.

Cool little detail I captured btw, Jin removes the helmet of an enemy to reveal his neck before assassinating.



This screenshot looks like a piece of art tho.

In a surprising twist announcement that pretty much no one saw ..

Sucker Punch is creating a free co-op mode for Tsushima releasing later in the year.





We designed Legends to be an exclusively cooperative gameplay experience. You’ll be able to partner up with friends or via online matchmaking and play Legends in groups of 2-4 players. Each player can choose from one of four different character classes: the Samurai, Hunter, Ronin, or Assassin. Each class has unique advantages and abilities that we’ll reveal in the future.

With two players in Ghost of Tsushima: Legends, you’ll be able to play a series of co-op Story missions that escalate in difficulty, building on the foundation of combat from the single-player campaign but with new magical twists that often require careful synchronization with your partner.

If you can best the Story and Survival missions, you may be confident enough to take on the four-player Raid that will arrive shortly after the launch of Ghost of Tsushima: Legends, sending you and your partners to an entirely new realm to challenge a brutal, terrifying enemy.

Ghost of Tsushima multiplayer and new game plus arrive Oct. 16


PS4 game’s 1.1 update adds a whole lot more



Ghost of Tsushima: Legends, the previously announced cooperative multiplayer mode for up to four players, is coming to Ghost of Tsushima on Oct. 16 with the PlayStation 4 game’s 1.1 update. The free update will also include a host of new additions and improvements for the single-player portion of the game, namely a new game plus mode.

As seen in the trailer above, Ghost of Tsushima: Legends will include two-player story missions and four-player survival missions. Developer Sucker Punch Productions teases a multiplayer raid that will arrive in the weeks following launch. That raid, the developer says, will be “an epic three-part adventure that will require excellent teamwork and communication to overcome.” Players will encounter a new character in Ghost of Tsushima when the update arrives: Gyozen, a storyteller that grants access to the Legends multiplayer lobby.

More details about Ghost of Tsushima: Legends gameplay and the multiplayer mode’s photo mode options are available at the PlayStation Blog.

On the single-player side, Sucker Punch revealed what players can expect in new game plus mode: a new horse, new “extremely powerful” charms, and a new merchant that will give players new game plus-exclusive dyes and vanity items in exchange for collecting a new strain of flower.

Ghost of Tsushima: Legends’ co-op tale concludes in this new raid


Uncover the Tale of Iyo



The Ghost of Tsushima: Legends story is coming to a close with a new end game raid that takes place entirely in Iyo’s realm. The Tale of Iyo is a three-chapter raid that will requite four players who are geared up and ready to coordinate.

The Tale of Iyo will not support matchmaking, so players will need to find their group outside of the game, through online meetings or real life friends. Once four players have assembled, Sucker Punch advises that you have your gear at KI level 100 “at an absolute minimum before attempting to take on this challenge.”

This raid rolls out with a new set of weekly challenges. At 8 a.m. PDT on Fridays, there will be two-player Story missions and four-player Survival missions with weekly modifiers. These missions will reward gear — which is a great way to get ready for the Tale of Iyo raid — and leaderboards, which offer bragging rights. These missions can also get tougher if players complete bonus objectives, and they reward better items in return.

The Tale of Iyo launches on Oct. 30. The exact time of the raid’s launch has yet to be announced.

Ghost of Tsushima is a bigger critical and commercial success than Sony's internal projections as per Jim Ryan.

No official numbers given but as-per unofficial player stat tracking, it was at 5.5m players as of this month.

But let's talk about Ghost of Tsushima, which has been a critical delight and certainly a commercial delight to an extent that we didn't think it would be. That speaks volumes to the work that Sucker Punch has done to build on their previous canon of work.

Ghost of Tsushima has sold over 5m copies.

Fantastic work Sucker Punch.


Sony attributes much of its success over the last console generation to the popularity of its exclusive game franchises, including stalwarts like God of War (more than 51 million copies sold) and newcomers like Ghost of Tsushima, with more than five million copies sold since its debut in July.

Pretty sure this figure is destined to surprise us even more once the PS5 launches. I have a few friends who postponed their purchase of this game just so they could play it on the PS5.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    " Both PS5 and Series X have an unlocked frame-rate here, with performance that generally lies between 30fps and 45fps. That makes for a stuttering and inconsistent output in general play, no matter what you are doing at any given time."

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
