First things first. I really need to start learning how to spell “Tsushima”. I wrote about Sucker Punch’s excellent samurai sandbox a lot in my previous role before joining Tom’s Guide and every single time I had to Google the damn spelling. It’s clearly a slight defect in some quarter of my brain that’s also responsible for me constantly forgetting the titular year in Blade Runner 2049, despite Dune: Part Two director Denis Villeneuve’s masterful sci-fi sequel being one of my favorite movies of the past decade.
Anyway, Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut is coming to PC on May 16. Speaking as both an obsessive PC player and someone who replaced their PS4 Pro back in 2020 just to replay this open-world action-adventure — my launch model’s fans had become so loud I literally couldn’t make out a lot of the dialogue in The Last of Us Part II — I should be thrilled with this news. Instead, I’m only hesitantly hopeful it won’t be a trainwreck at launch.
