Ghost of Tsushima – Jin Sakai's katana as a replica
It begins with a lost battle on the beach: Ghost of Tsushima is set in 1274, when the Mongol fleet appears off the Japanese island of Tsushima and the samurai are defeated in open field battle. The survivor Jin Sakai then has to learn to fight differently – in secret, from behind, against everything his rank has taught him. The 2020 game by Sucker Punch was celebrated for its imagery, and that is exactly what makes the merchandise interesting. At Elbenwald you will find the katana replica for the series.
What sets Ghost of Tsushima apart?
The calm between the fights. Where other open-world titles plaster the map with icons, Ghost of Tsushima works with wind, birds and columns of smoke as signposts – you look at the landscape instead of the minimap. Added to that is a core conflict that is never resolved: Jin becomes the ghost who saves his island and loses his code, and the game does not judge that for him. Switch on Kurosawa mode and you get the whole thing in black and white with a grainy image – a homage that also explains why fans of this licence think of wall mounting rather than the shelf when it comes to decorative pieces.
