Thirsty for revenge, she travels through the beautiful, rugged landscapes of northern Japan, hunting those who killed her family many years earlier.

What is the story in Ghost of Tsushima?
Set in the late 13th century, Ghost of Tsushima follows Jin Sakai after he survives a brutal Mongol raid. Driven to protect his home, Jin sets out on a quest to unite the remaining clans of Tsushima against the formidable Mongol forces.
Embracing the identity of The Ghost, Jin faces an internal conflict: he must choose between the honorable samurai code and the use of stealth and guerrilla tactics—methods his people view as dishonorable. His uncle, Lord Shimura, the current ruler of Tsushima, disapproves of Jin’s actions, believing he has betrayed the samurai way.
After defeating the Mongol leader, Khotun Khan, Jin confronts his greatest challenge—an emotional clash with his uncle, who plans to execute him for abandoning the samurai code. The game allows players to shape the outcome, offering a deeply personal and morally complex ending.
Why was Ghost of Tsushima so well-received?
