Our verdict on Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut

Set on Tsushima Island during the Mongol invasion of Japan, Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut follows Jin Sakai as he fights to protect the island. This action role-playing game is for players drawn to a solo samurai story, with online co-op available for those who also want multiplayer. The Director’s Cut includes the Iki Island expansion, Legends online co-op mode, a digital mini art book, and director’s commentary. It is available for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, and its listed price is $69.99 as a one-time purchase.

The package brings together a single-player campaign and additional activities rather than focusing solely on multiplayer. Iki Island extends the game with an expansion, while Legends adds online co-op. That pairing fits players who want a campaign-led experience but value a cooperative option too. Online multiplayer requires a PlayStation Plus membership, so co-op access depends on that membership as well as the game purchase.

Platform-specific features may help determine which version suits you. On PS5, the game targets dynamic 4K resolution at 60 fps and supports DualSense haptic feedback and adaptive trigger resistance. Players moving from PS4 can transfer saves to PS5. The $69.99 listed price is a substantial commitment for someone primarily interested in trying online co-op, while the campaign, Iki Island expansion, and included digital extras give solo-focused players more of the package to consider. Choose it for a samurai-action campaign with an expansion and co-op; look elsewhere if you need a game outside the PlayStation 4 and 5 platforms or do not want a paid purchase.
