First Reviews: Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut - Best Way to Experience the Game

Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut received its first reviews. Journalists emphasize the game's high quality and an interesting new story chapter.

After more than a year since the release of the basic version of Ghost of Tsushima, today - on August 20, 2021 - the improved version of the game with the subtitle Director's Cut was released. The first reviews have appeared on the Internet. Journalists are almost unanimous - the new version of the game is primarily more of the same great production from a year ago. Average of reviews on Metacritic is currently 88/100.

Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut - sample review scores:

  • PCMag - 90/100
  • Gaming Bolt - 90/100
  • Destructoid - 90/100
  • IGN - 80/100
  • TheGamer - 80/100
  • VGC - 80/100
  • Sirus Gaming - 75/100

Reviewers emphasize that Director's Cut is the best version of the game available on the market. With beautiful graphics, an engaging story and interesting mechanics, the production still pulls you in just as much as it did a year ago. The highlight of the new release is the story expansion Iki Island. . Journalists describe it as a great, intriguing adventure, which focuses on Jin Sakai's past and expands the combat by adding new skills and enemies. The DLC takes between 6 and 10 hours to be completed. It is worth adding that along with this version of the game, owners of Sony's newest console will gain access to the multiplayer co-op mode called Legends.

Ghost of Tsushima had already offered a 60fps update for PS5 in backward compatibility, so there wasn't much in the way of technological innovations - the big change was support for the unique features of the new controller, which makes it easier to get into the scenes on screen.

It looks like the new version of the game could be a worthwhile purchase for players who are already familiar with Jin's story, as well as new buyers. Are you convinced by the new content, or were you expecting more?
