<h3>Ghost of Tsushima</h3><i>Sucker Punch Productions</i><br /><br />Much like the in-game wind that guides you to your destinations, Ghost of Tsushima is a gust of fresh air. It is one of the largest steps forward in the open-world action-adventure genre in some time thanks to its excellent combat, clever approach to progression that avoids the pitfall of having to level gate its quests, and its very often emotional side stories that go to great lengths to develop its supporting cast.<br />With Ghost of Tsushima, Sucker Punch crafted one of the most strikingly beautiful open worlds we've seen to date and filled it to the brim with worthwhile encounters, platforming challenges, collectibles, side stories, and much more. And all of this is on top of the free multiplayer mode, Ghost of Tsushima Legends, which adds on a truly excellent cooperative mode for up to four players that features its own progression and challenges, separate from the already excellent main campaign.
