In Ghost of Tsushima, another PlayStation-exclusive game makes the leap, ending console exclusivity.

The stream of PlayStation-exclusive games coming to PC continues. This time, it is the director’s version of the samurai drama Ghost of Tsushima. The game will be released on May 16 for PC. The highly successful Director’s Cut includes the main campaign, the Iki Island expansion, and a multiplayer mode called Legends. At the time of its release in 2021, it received an extremely positive reception. Many praised it—including us.

In addition to all this, according to Sony, the PC port will have “unlocked frame rates, a variety of graphics settings and presets, and customizable mouse and keyboard controls,” and will be “fully optimized for 21:9 and 32:9 resolutions and even supports 48:9 resolutions for triple monitor setups.”. Nixxes Studio, which was acquired by Sony in 2021, is responsible for the port.

The news is definitely a pleasant surprise. Even if it’s not that surprising. After all, Sony has made the PC a crucial part of its strategy. So far, we’ve seen ports of games like God of War, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and The Last of Us, and Horizon Forbidden West, if true, will be released later this month. The breakthrough multiplayer hit Helldivers 2 was released simultaneously on PC and PS5 in February.

Back in February, Sony president Hiroki Totoki talked about the possibility of porting console games to PC. “In the past, we wanted to popularize console … but there is a synergy to it. So if you have strong first-party content, not only with our console but also other platforms like computers, first-party can be grown with multi platforms and that can help operating profit to improve.”

The game is now available for pre-order on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
