“4 years ago we got the best intros in all of gaming”: Fans Are Looking Back to Ghost of Tsushima on Its Anniversary as the Wait for the Sequel Goes On
Ghost of Tsushima once again beat almost all the PlayStation games with its intro.
Ghost of Tsushima has undoubtedly created history since it was initially released on PlayStation 4 in 2020. Jin Sakai’s story and his adventures to save Tsushima Island during the first Mongol invasion of Japan have touched the hearts of gamers. This open-world game has loads of things to understand and explore to reach the climax.
Though it’s been four years since its first release, no sequel to Ghost of Tsushima has yet been released. The sequel could be under development and doesn’t have any official date to be launched. So, on its fourth anniversary, fans have gone down memory lane and become nostalgic about the features of the game, especially the intro.
It’s Been Four Years, but Ghost of Tsushima Still Has Features to Impress Fans
Ghost of Tsushima is one of the best games ever released on PlayStation. At least the overwhelmed reactions of the fans support this sentiment. Since Ghost of Tsushima was released, this game has been maintaining a stable fanbase, and even after four years, fans are celebrating its anniversary by posting clips of their gameplay.
Recently, when Ghost of Tsushima fans have been expressing their opinions about the game on its anniversary on X (formerly Twitter), DomTheBomb posted a video clip of 24 seconds and captioned it, saying that four years ago, they received one of the best intros ever.

The clip shows Jin Sakai riding his horse and traveling through a field of white flowers. While most players and critics focus on the gameplay and storyline to rate a game, the introduction plays an extremely important role. The introduction not only sets the pace of the game but also provides a good understanding of the plot.
If the introduction doesn’t feel understandable or engaging, players often lose interest. Sucker Punch Productions nailed it with Ghost of Tsushima’s introduction, and even after four years, players have been considering it one of the best intros they have ever received.
Sucker Punch Productions Has Created a Masterpiece With Ghost of Tsushima’s Intro
Ghost of Tsushima opens with the Samurai clan of Tsushima Island watching waves of Mongol soldiers coming. Though the opponent is heavier, they don’t run away. Instead, they send their brave samurais for a fair fight. In the introduction of the game, players have seen the pitiful fate of Jin Sakai and how Yuna saved him. This story has set the pace of the game and makes the plot easy to understand.

It’s already been four years since this intro was launched, and in the meantime, hundreds of games have been released with impressive intros. Still, in the reply section, players expressed how much they are obsessed with Jin Sakai and the beginning of his journey.
Some players said that the Ghost of Tsushima intro is not one of the best, but it’s the best.
Another player, following the same note, said he had never watched an opening like that since then.
Some players expressed that the intro of the game provided them with a good vibe to continue the journey.
Indeed, Sucker Punch Productions has done a great job, and of course, players are expecting similar things from the sequel to the game as well.
When the sequel will come is not yet sure, and according to recent leaks, it will be released after Sony launches the PlayStation 6.
That’s a complete assumption at this point, without any confirmation from Sony.
