I had three weeks off work over Christmas final yr, and whereas I’d like to inform you I spent the entire time on the seaside, enjoyable with buddies, sipping beers on a breezy summer time’s night, the reality is I spent a great deal of that point indoors. Hunched in entrance of my TV. Enjoying Ghost of Tsushima.
I actually wished to play it, however I’d missed out on the sport when it was first launched. My PlayStation 4 was within the strategy of dying a loud, turbulent loss of life, I hadn’t been in a position to get my palms on a PS5 when that version dropped in 2021, and Sony had by no means received round to porting it to the PC like that they had different first-party hits (Horizon, God of Conflict, and so on).
Having picked up a PlayStation Plus subscription in December, although, I noticed that the sport (its director’s minimize, no much less) was obtainable on the service, and so I downloaded it and received to enjoying it ASAP. And boy, was I glad it did. I’m in love with this recreation. I received into it, in awe of its attractive world and its solid of lovable characters, beneath its spell like I hadn’t been with a online game in years. I appreciated it a lot, in truth, that I kinda made it my 2023 Sport Of The 12 months, although it was first launched again in 2020.
All of which is to say, this isn’t a evaluate, I simply can’t consider I by no means showcased this recreation on High quality Artwork earlier than, and am trying to rectify that tonight. Beneath you’ll discover a number of works from artists and studios who labored on the sport. It’s not everybody who labored in each space of the sport’s growth, but it surely’s a pleasant cross-section. And so you possibly can try extra of their stuff tlisted here are hyperlinks to every artist’s portfolio of their names.
