Will they be glorious? Will they glisten with honour and duty as the sun rises over ye olde Japan, clenched in firm preparation for the battles that lie ahead? I say thee probably. Ghost of Tsushima is a mere few weeks away from closing the door on Sony’s first-party efforts in the PlayStation 4 era, and you couldn’t have asked …
Years of work, countless hours of burning the midnight oil and an eye focused on pushing the envelope in storytelling haven’t just led to one of the final major hurrahs for the PlayStation 4, but a monumental moment in gaming as well.

A spooky European village. Properly scary castle mania. Vampires. Werewolves!
