Ghost of Tsushima on the PC should inspire
One of the key additions to this edition for PC is the integration of a new PlayStation overlay, allowing players to connect via their PlayStation Network account to access Legends Mode. This feature also allows managing friends, trophies and settings directly from the game interface. Players can enjoy PlayStation Trophies as if they were playing on a console, with the added ability to earn achievements on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
The introduction of Cross-Play is another significant step forward, allowing PC gamers to participate in cooperative gaming sessions with those on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles, enhanced by built-in voice chat communication. To ensure a smooth transition of the game from console to PC, the Nixxes team has optimized Ghost of Tsushima for a variety of hardware configurations, ensuring a satisfying gaming experience on both older machines and high-end PCs. Recommended configurations range from Very Low for 720p performance at 30 FPS to Very High for a 4K experience at 60 FPS, ensuring the game is accessible to a wide range of PC users.
