PSX 2017 is starting tomorrow and Sucker Punch, the developer of the famed
Infamous series, is guaranteed a panel for their upcoming open-world samurai game,
Ghost of Tsushima.
For those who can't wait for tomorrow, some Reddit users found a listing on PlayStation New Zealand's page that revealed some information about the game. The information was
left online, just before it got taken down:
"Steel and swordsmanship – you must master both to survive in this colossal quest across 1274 Japan, where the Mongol army has taken over Tsushima Island. Don your armour, sharpen your katana and strap on your longbow as you assume the role of Jin, a battered samurai who remains the island’s only hope against the ruthless Khan and his vicious empire.
Through swaying bamboo forests, ornate castles and luscious landscapes one brave soul must fight back against overwhelming odds. Can you build your legend as “the Ghost” in a bloody tale of betrayal and sacrifice, inspired by classic samurai stories?"
This information certainly sounds interesting and judging by the masterfully made trailer, this could be another fantastic original PlayStation exclusive, much like Horizon: Zero Dawn, who both succeeded financially and critically.
