The gameplay of Ghost of Tsushima begins when Jin wakes up in an unknown house. Formerly, Jin was wounded fighting Mongols in the battle. 

Jin wakes up and finds out that he has lost his armour and sword. On looking around, he meets Yuna who saved his life after he went unconscious in the battle.

Yuna is a bold and determined thief willing to do whatever it takes to survive. She has been extremely protective of her brother Taka. Yuna told him that she sold his gears for food and medicine.

She asks Jin to save his brother from the Mongol prison. As a result, both sneak from the Mongol area to get back the sword that Yuna traded for food and medicines to save Jin.

After getting his sword, Yuna asks him to save Taka. But, he goes straight in the face of Mongol leader Khotun Khan and challenges him for a contest. He loses the fight with Khotun and falls off the bridge.

In the gameplay of Ghost of Tsushima, the story revolves around different times. The samurai remembers the way his father died in front of him in combat. Afterwards, his Uncle honoured him with his father’s Katana in childhood.

Now, as he swims back to shore, Lord Sakai finds Yuna again. 

2) The tale of Sensei Ishikawa

Soon, Jin realises that he needs allies to defeat the Mongols massive army. Both Yuna & Jin decide to meet at Alamo bay where Taka could be imprisoned.

The tale of Sensei Ishikawa is all about gaining the trust of teacher named Sensei. So that, we can gather an army to free Lord Shimura and drive the Mongols back.

For this reason, Jin helps him to find his student in Tsushima gameplay. Tomoe is a top-notch archer and has gone missing since the Mongols invaded.

They reach Fort Nakayama to find her in Mongol prison camps. But, a peasant acknowledges them of the fact that she has joined the cover of Mongols.

By the end of the ghost mission, we gain our first ally in the PS-4 samurai game.

3) Blood on the grass

This tale of the Ghost of Tsushima is about investigating Tsushima for battle clues.

As we travel to the coast by Kishi Grassland, we find a burning cart next to which is a straw hat. On further searching, blood trials of Mongol soldiers led us to a remote location. 

The scene starts with a man fighting and killing soldiers. The person turns out to be Jin’s friend Ryuzo. 

On travelling, Jin asks Ryuzo to join his side to help him fight enemies. But, Ryuzo declines his request as there is no food for his clan.

In this case, Ghost of Tsushima gameplay demands us to attack port Ohira. Only this way we can gain support from Ryuzo to free Lord Shimura.

4) The Tale Of Ryuzo

The mission focuses on gathering food for Ryuzo’s men. So that, Ryuzo can agree to become Jin’s ally.

This Ghost of Tsushima gameplay starts by surveying the Port Ohira where Mongols keep their food supplies. Jin enters the ships to find food where he encounters soldiers.

The fight in this scene begins. Strawhats and Ryuzo take care of the guarding soldiers whereas Jin combats on the ship. 

As Ryuzo and Jin search the ship, there is no sign of any food. As a result, both part their ways and decide to meet at castle Shimura.

Jin offers Masako to join him to fight Mongols. But, after the fall of clan Adachi, she is left hopeless. For this, Jin stretches out a helping hand towards her. And, helps her to find the traitor.

A priest named Sogen is under the suspicion radar. So, she asks Jin to talk to him. Sogen offers refuge to Lady Masako in the temple. But, he acts weird and leaves the conversation.

Sogen leaves the temple and reaches the Mongol inn. He talks to Mongols that Masako is yet alive. Masako confronts Sogen. He is extremely shocked to see her. 

The tale ends by Masako killing Sogen and finally agreeing to Jin’s request of joining him.

7) The Iron Hook

After collecting Iron Hook from Taka, the next challenge came straight to us in the face. This time it is Ryuzo whose men have been caught by the enemy force. In the Ghost of Tsushima Gameplay, the Samurai repeatedly delays his mission when he helps others.

This time, Ryuzo and Jin make their way towards Fort Yatate. Specifically, in the Ghost game, fort Yatate is a convenient place for prisoners. Without a doubt, we free the Straw-hats that got captured and conquered the Fort.

Accordingly, Sensei Ishikawa secures the first gate of the castle. Next, Yuna clears the path along the cliff. 

Masako and Jin advance to the upper courtyard to kill Mongols where Masako holds the Hwacha to provide cover.

Surprisingly, Ryuzo is waiting eagerly for him in the Fort to fight him. The reason being food. Because Straw-hats are dying; Ryuzo has joined Mongols. In no time, two good friends start to combat to kill each other.

Ghost of Tsushima Gameplay Review

In conclusion, playing Ghost of Tsushima was a good decision. Certainly, I liked the Sound effect, the tense music and the overall theme of war. For the most part, the experience was smooth. The fighting with the top leader was a bit tough. But, that definitely satisfied a lot once the tale was complete. The only thing that could have been better was the Fps. As the game offers 30 FPS, everyone would have loved 60 FPS.

Lastly, to finish this long-form guide article, I would recommend you to play this game. Because the Ghost of Tsushima cost is $60 dollars, you may avoid playing the game considering your budget does not give you a free hand.

Do comment below how you felt about the game and if you are going to play the game or have already completed it.
