One of the newest additions in the game is going to be the Iki Island, this is a brand new expansive area that will provide Jin with adventures as well as stories that were not explored previously. This is what the official press release had to say.
If you’re a history buff, you may know that in addition to Tsushima, the neighboring island of Iki was also invaded during this time period. Today we’re excited to reveal that a whole new chapter in Jin’s journey is coming and will take place on Iki. In this new story, Jin travels to the island to investigate rumors of a Mongol presence. But soon, he finds himself caught up in events with deeply personal stakes that will force him to relive some traumatic moments from his past.
We’ll have more to share about the story of Iki soon, but today we can confirm that beyond a whole new story and new characters, this new island also features tons of new content including brand new environments to explore, new armor for Jin as well as his horse, new mini-games, new techniques, new enemy types, and much more. There are even new animals to pet! On both platforms, Director’s Cut will also offer new Trophies to unlock for the new Iki content.
For those wondering, Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut also brings new PS5 exclusive features that are going to be added to the game such as DualSense support, 3D audio improved load times, and 4K resolution options as well.
Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut will be available on PS4 and PS5 on August 20.
