Product Information

But while there’s real history laid out as the backbone of the game’s story, developer Sucker Punch Productions took liberties with the events, adding fictional characters and situations to the game as well as nods to the films of Japanese auteur Akira Kurosawa. The best open-world adventures of recent years do something that sets their gameplay apart so they can rise above the crowd and hopefully mature the genre.

The core game underneath that alluring exterior is a pastiche of open-world game design standards from five years ago; it lacks a real personality of its own. After the “divine wind” had saved Japan for the second time, Kublai Khan and the Mongol Empire abandoned its plans to conquer the country. There’s a superficial samurai aesthetic here, and a very good one, but in terms of the rhythms of battle and the feel and function of the tools at your disposal, the combat, with a few cosmetic changes, could have been taken from so many other games, or put into so many other games, that I could never find the particular soul of this game. After pulling off certain feats — most commonly by killing several enemies in a row without taking damage — you can activate the ghost stance and send nearby foes into a panic that lets you easily mow a few of them down. If you release a button at the precise moment the enemy strikes, you’ll fell him with a single slash; if your timing is off, you’ll be gravely wounded.inches tall and feature Jin outfitted in his Ghost Armor, complete with his deadly katana and tanto. Some of those involved with Days Gone‘s development have been more than happy to fuel that particular fire. Jin’s first stealth kill is almost traumatic for him, and it’s clear that it will be hard for him to live with the dishonor of killing from the shadows. After Japan rejected the invitation, Kublai Khan dispatched several more emissaries between 1268 and 1272, all the while building up his army and preparing his naval fleet to take Japan by force.

We love Figma and we’re excited to show off this early concept, but even more excited to share a more detailed look later this year!I’m playing through the busy work the game presents me for a reward that should have been given much more freely: the ability to just exist in, and enjoy looking at, this gorgeous world. There are strings of side quests that give you the opportunity to spend time with your closest allies, and though the combat scenarios that pepper these quests are unremarkable, the conversations between characters as you walk or ride from one spot to the next make them worthwhile. Sucker Punch has revealed an official Jin Sakai action figure — the protagonist from hit PS4 exclusive Ghost of Tsushima, in case you didn't know.

While Ross indicates that the trophy information lines up with internal sales figures he saw while he was still with the company (and that the internal sales information he saw was based on sales figures recorded prior to Days Gone being released for free via PlayStation Plus in 2021), there are still a number of factors that could account for a serious discrepancy between Ross’ estimates and the actual sales figures. They’re all handled well here, offering the same familiar satisfactions I’ve felt in other, similar games in the past, as I’ve leapt from a rooftop to assassinate an enemy from above or fired an arrow at some explosive barrels.
