Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut brings the samurai saga of Jin Sakai to PC for the first time, set during a 13th‑century Mongol invasion of Tsushima Island. The story follows Jin as he abandons tradition to become the Ghost and fight an unconventional war to protect his people.
The PC version adds unlocked framerates, a wide range of graphics options, and support for ultrawide, super‑ultrawide and triple‑monitor displays.
