Part 4/9:
Why Ghost of Tsushima Resonates with Japanese Audiences
The game's strong reception is not solely due to sales figures; it's also reflected in the praise from Japanese industry insiders and critics. Metacritic reports that Ghost of Tsushima holds the distinction of being the highest-rated PlayStation 4 exclusive in Japan, boasting a 9.3/10 score. Such acclaim reflects widespread approval, contrasting sharply with the divisive reaction to The Last of Us Part II, which was hampered by review-bombing and mixed audience reactions.
