Ghost of Tsushima recently launched on the PC platform after four years. The fandom has praised this game a lot, especially because it was among the few options to pick from that portrayed the culture and historical era of Japan back in 2020.

Following positive reviews on PC, the game has received praise from veteran developers yet again. After praising Ghost of Tsushima in the past, the creator of Final Fantasy, along with Dragon Quest’s creator, recently showed admiration for Sucker Punch’s work.

Why it matters: Ghost of Tsushima has many qualities, including the open world, that immediately stand out and make it worth praising.

Hironobu Sakaguchi and Yuji Horii, the creators of Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, recently gave Ghost of Tsushima a shout-out on a Japanese radio show.

According to Genki_JPN, who frequently reports on news from Japanese creators and developers, it is a game they both respect and admire, likely due to the well-rounded experience presented by developer Sucker Punch.

It has been over four years since the studio began collecting heaps of praise from various Japanese developers. In the past, the creator of Resident Evil had similarly positive words to say about the game.

Most of the praise comes from the fact that Sucker Punch did such a great job of portraying Japanese culture and traditions despite offering a fictional experience. The studio was also initially doubted due to being a Western team.

However, it’s safe to say that it went above everyone’s expectations to deliver a great experience.

Overall, it’s great to see that even after four years, Ghost of Tsushima is receiving such praise. This is why it deserves a sequel more than anything. Insiders have reported many times that a sequel is expected to be revealed soon, so fans are excited for the IP’s future.
