Fans ofGhost of Tsushimahave wasted no time telling the world how much they love the game, and a recent statistic showing thatplayers have pet over 8 million foxessupports this. Despite its positive reception, there are still a host of suggestions fans have that could make the game that much better. These suggestions range from quality of life changes to entirely new modes, but the community pretty much unanimously agrees that they would better the game. Sucker Punch is aiming to be active in the subreddit, so hopefully it sees some of these suggestions and considers implementing them.
Despite only coming out less than a month ago, many have already earnedGhost of Tsushima’s platinum trophy and are looking for more to do in the game. On average, it takes around 50 hours to get everything in the game, so it is no surprise that some of the more dedicated players have already achieved this. These suggestions would breathe a little new life into the game, giving those players that have already done all there is to do something else to strive for.

New Game +
Without a doubt, the most commonly requested feature inGhost of Tsushimais the addition of a New Game+ Mode. This would allow players that have already beaten the game to replay it without losing all of their progress and collectibles. Ideally, if players are able to keep all of this stuff, they will be able to focus more on the story and less onfollowingGhost of Tsushima’s golden birdsand foxes. Sucker Punch has a lot of freedom in figuring out how it would like to implement this regarding increased difficulty, whether or not there would be new armor and collectibles available only in New Game +, and what exactly the player would get to keep.
Armor Presets
Armor presets are more of a quality of life change, but fans agree that they would be incredibly useful.Ghost of Tsushimaallows players to switch armor at will, even mid swing in combat, but nothing breaks the immersion more than constantly entering the inventory and swapping out armor and charms. Players wanting efficient builds will need to synchronize their armor sets withGhost of Tsushima’sbest charms, and having a quick button do change all of that at once would encourage players to try more than one combat style out and get creative with builds.
Armor Glamour
This change is purely cosmetic and wouldn’t require any sort of re-balancing at all, but many players would love to see some kind of glamour system added toGhost of Tsushima. Essentially, this would allow players to wear a specific armor set, gaining the stats and perks associated with it, while using the appearance of another. This is ideal for players that love optimizing their stats but still want to look a specific way. Though some feel it might break the immersion if one can wearJin’s secret Fundoshi armorwhile having the stats of the Samurai Clan Armor, it is up to each player how they would use a feature like this.
Duel Mode
Ghost of Tsushima’sduels are its take on classic video game boss fights, as they pit the player against an admirable adversary and restricts Jin to only using his sword techniques (ie. no Ghost Weapons). Many players have voiced that a duel mode that allows them to either replay certain duels at any of the various dueling grounds available in the game or even customize enemies to fight in duels would be a lot of fun, providing longevity to the game beyond what it is currently capable of. There are a ton of stunning dueling grounds already inGhost of Tsushima, so allowing the player to experience these moments again would be a great idea.

Arena/Survival Mode
Given the wayGhost of Tsushima’s enemies steadily get more and more difficult as the player progresses through the story, one thing that fans think would be a lot of fun is the introduction of an arena or survival type mode. This would pit Jin against waves of increasingly difficult enemies, tasking the player with surviving for as long as they can or for a set number of waves. Thecombat system inGhost of Tsushimais one of many things fans love about the game, so a more readily available way to fight hordes of enemies seems like an obvious improvement to the game.
Ghost of Tsushima DLC
The biggest question fans have been asking since the release of this highly anticipated game is “WillGhost of Tsushimaget DLC?” There’s a lot to consider about adding a DLC to the game, and fan speculation has run wild online. For one, the ending ofGhost of Tsushimaleaves things in a somewhat uncertain spot, leaving fans needing to get creative with what type of content the DLC would include. Sucker Punch currently has no plans to release a story DLC forGhost of Tsushima, but the studio hasn’t shot the idea down either. If one does come, it would likely be in a few months.
Ghost of Tsushima Sequel
Along the same lines of the previous entry, fans would love to see a sequel toGhost of Tsushimaeventually. Obviously, the game is still fresh off the press, so no one is expecting anything anytime soon, but with how beloved this game ended up being it would be a shame if it didn’t become a franchise. Similar issues arise here as with the DLC, as there aren’t a ton of places that Jin’s story can still go, butJapanese history is rich and full of potential inspiration for a future installment.
All of these changes or additions would do wonders to keepGhost of Tsushimaalive for fans, but of course they are all just suggestions and none of them have been confirmed by developers. Sucker Punch did recently add a lethal mode as a free update, so it seems that the studio plans on continuing to support the game. Furthermore, it has made a statement claiming it hopes to be active in the community’s discourse about the game, so fans may hear from the company soon. Until then, players may need to look for otheraction games for those that likeGhost of Tsushima.
