Ghost of Tsushima

Combat in Sucker Punch’s Ghost of Tsushima is diverse. Relying on stealth kills, smoke bombs, sticky bombs, the bow and more is very much feasible. But it’s the swordplay with its precise parry timing and different styles for each weapon type that really shines. Instead of button mashing, you’re encouraged to keep properly space foes from each other, mix in ninja tools to gain an edge and employ different techniques – like delayed strikes, unblockable attacks and more – to slay enemies. It’s easy to get into, response and incredibly nuanced.
