Ghost of Tsushima was finally given another trailer, this time during The Game Awards 2019 in December. The trailer shown off there is the extended version of the trailer initially shown off at PlayStation’s State of Play just two days before. That trailer teased a standoff between protagonist and samurai warrior, Jin Sakai, and a group of Mongol soldiers hauling a cart of goods in the woods. As the Mongol clan of soldiers gave out a warning and then charged, Jin brandished his samurai sword and pulled out what appeared to be a smoke bomb.

The trailer then ends with rapid shots of the vast open world of the game, as Jin rides his horse through various environments including those filled with blooming foliage, horrid snow, and everything in between. The climbing mechanic is also briefly shown off in a mountainous area. Shots of great temples are also briefly shown, as is one slow motion shot of Jin rushing through a barrage of falling arrows. A release window of summer 2020 is shown at the very end, to the satisfaction of many PlayStation game
The next shots show the ghost, Jin, approaching a camp full of Mongol soldiers with stealthy tactics. The game is going to allow the player to survey areas before striking enemies, as Jin is seen on top of structures. As was already shown off during the E3 2018 demo, Jin is capable of _ Assassin’s Creed _ -like assassinations, as he jumps off of rooftops and slams his sword into his oppone
Nobody knows when The Last of Us Part II will finally release, and if they do, they're not telling. The next largest Sony first-party title after Naughty Dog's sequel is likely Ghost of Tsushima , the new IP from developer Sucker Punch, a studio best known for working on games like Sly Cooper and Infamous . The Japan-set fallen samurai revenge thriller looks to be shaping up to be one of 2020's breakout hits, but now fans are concerned that Sony might delay the highly-anticipated title from its previously-scheduled June 26 street date, to the point where fears about the game's release status have caused Ghost to become a trending topic on Twitter, as recently reported by Game Ra
Sucker Punch has set the bar very high for themselves with their past success making Sly Cooper and Infamous games. Throughout three generations of PlayStation consoles, the developer has been a mainstay for gamers on the platform. It seems like Ghost of Tsushima is up to the challenge of raising the bar higher than ever before, as Sucker Punch looks to cap off the PlayStation 4 with perhaps it's last AAA exclus
When the flashback ends and Jin is left standing as the victor of the standoff with just one soldier left lying before him, he lets him go as a message. Before readjusting his samurai facial armor and heading off, he stands for one last glamour shot, with the trailer officially dubbing him the ghost. What is interesting to note is the potential implementation of facial armor as a game mechanic. If the samurai of feudal Japan used these masks to scare off enemies, then maybe masks in this game will play a similar role (besides defen
Is Ghost of Tsushima going to be the best game of 2020? I'm not a fortune teller, so I have no idea. But could it be my personal favorite game of 2020? Sure, why not. Sucker Punch, for my money, is one of the best developers in the video game industry and based on what we've seen so far, this could be shaping up to be the true swan song for the PS4 (sorry, The Last of Us Part I
There's also the fact that Ghost of Tsushima quite literally looks like it could be one of the prettiest games ever made. Speaking of that gameplay demo from 2018, I'm hard-pressed to actually believe that what we were shown was running on a PS4 Pro. Seriously, how is that even possible? The level of detail and the high-fidelity visuals that we were shown look like they should only be possible on a PC, or maybe an Xbox One X. If these kinds of graphics are possible on even the weakest “premium” platform around, then that's pretty incredible. Games like this are why I invested in a 4K TV and a PS4 Pro in the first place and I'm hoping Ghost of Tsushima's finalized iteration will look just as stunning as what we've been shown thus

Despite revealing many of their projects years in advance this gen, Sony has also kept most of these games well under wraps, only releasing a new trailer or screenshots here and there before then showing quite a bit more gameplay very close to launch. Ghost of Tsushima has actually had a very similar pre-release timeline to God of War , at least when comparing the two so far. Speaking for myself, I think that this manner of being relatively silent about games that are in development for long stretches of time actually generates more excitement in the long
