Sony‘s next-gen console will make Sucker Punch’s game run even better.

Sony Interactive Entertainment and Sucker Punch announced that Ghost of Tsushima, which launched in July on PlayStation 4, is going to run on the PlayStation 5 as well, and – thanks to the Game Boost function – it can run on an up to sixty frames per second frame rate. „PlayStation 5 owners playing with Game Boost will see an extra option to allow frame rates up to 60 frames per second, and while loading speeds on the PlayStation 4 are already great, just wait until you see them on the PlayStation 5!”, Sucker Punch wrote in a tweet. The PlayStation 4 save file will also work on PlayStation 5, but then again, this is standard for PS4 games running on PS5.

Next week, the game is going to get a significant update. We already wrote about it in detail, and this quote is just a small slice of it: „Ghost of Tsushima: Legends is a brand new, online cooperative multiplayer experience that will be a free update for all Ghost of Tsushima owners. A classic element of some of our favourite samurai films is warriors standing together, ready to fight as a team. In Ghost of Tsushima: Legends, you can fight side-by-side with your friends, which is such an important part of fulfilling that samurai fantasy in a whole new way. We’re so excited to hear from everyone who teams up with their friends and jumps in.

Ghost of Tsushima: Legends features two-player story missions and four-player survival missions, as well as a Raid that we’ll release in the weeks following launch. After you’ve downloaded version 1.1 of Ghost of Tsushima, you can visit the PlayStation Store from your PlayStation 4 to download a free unlock for Ghost of Tsushima: Legends, which will allow you to play. Keep in mind that an internet connection and an active PlayStation Plus subscription will be required to play with other players. Once you have version 1.1, you’ll notice a new character at various towns and locations in Tsushima… Gyozen the Storyteller! He’s heard the rumours about the Ghost of Tsushima, but he has a different perspective about what’s happening in his homeland. Gyozen is the author and gatekeeper of the stories you’ll find in Ghost of Tsushima: Legends, and when you talk to him, he’ll be happy to share one of his transportative stories about the „Ghosts.” Speaking to Gyozen will give you access to the Ghost of Tsushima: Legends lobby, but you can also get there directly from the title menu or the pause menu… or by accepting a PlayStation Network invitation from a friend.”

So Ghost of Tsushima is going to run on PlayStation 5. We’ll talk about the backward compatibility features later today.
