Ghost of Tsushima 2 Can Take a Page Out of Star Wars Jedi’s Playbook

Ghost of Tsushima released in 2020 as a game that was largely praised for its presentation. Sucker Punch’s relatively grounded and gritty take on 1274 Japan, particularly the titular island of Tsushima, centers on themes of traditional and cultural honor. Protagonist Jin Sakai struggles with his desire to avenge the island and to do so he dabbles in dishonorable means of killing, such as stealth assassinations or inflicting enemies with poison. However, most deaths in the game are swiftly administered through Ghost of Tsushima’s use of different combat stances.
