Overview

• The PlayStation 5–exclusive action adventure is set roughly 300 years after Ghost of Tsushima in 17th‑century Japan around Mount Yōtei, following Atsu on a revenge quest.
• Tested on a PS5 Pro, the build ran at 4K and 60 frames per second with near‑instant transitions, including seamless jumps into memory sequences from Atsu’s past.
• Combat stood out in the preview, featuring dual katanas, bow play, skill training with sensei, and dynamic encounters against Lord Saito’s outlaw forces.
• Exploration spans a large, varied open world with wind‑guided navigation, travel on foot or horseback, side activities, and dozens of hours of missions and discovery.
• Stealth systems drew criticism for conventional design such as grass‑hiding, with the article stressing these are early impressions rather than a broad critical consensus.
