Ghost of Tsushima is one of the four games that Sony’s set to showcase at its E3 2018 press conference, and much like with Death Stranding and The Last of Us: Part II, the company putting out that information early has allowed Sucker Punch to start teasing. Take this photograph shared by animation director Billy Harper: it’s a katana prop, located in a motion capture studio.

Even back in the Sly Cooper days, the Seattle studio’s always created really cool animations, so we’re looking forward to seeing how its samurai-themed open worlder looks in motion. We’re expecting plenty of acrobatics, and lightning fast controller response – as is the developer’s forte. All will be revealed in little over two weeks, and we can’t wait.

Can't wait for this game, I really love samurai and ninja settings. Btw, Ghost of Tsushima is the most anticipated game here on Push Square according to a poll, right?
Word up son.
Hope they nail the sword play, not so bothered about historical accuracy like some claim on twitter that it won't be.
@PS_Nation It actually seems to be trending better than The Last of Us and Death Stranding on this site at the moment, which is interesting.
@get2sammyb I wonder if that's to do with been a relevantly small but very informed community that they know what to expect from Last of Us etc but because Ghost of Tushsima is an unknown quantity that it makes it more interesting.
@adf86 Yeah, I think that's exactly it.
Haget2sammyb Hahaha sword up son👍

And another catch phrase catches on.
Really looking forward to this game.
Thor's hammer
Loved infamous. Sucker Punch is my favorite Playstation publisher. (not to take away from the others who are all amazing.) So Im super hyped for what they are bringing next.
Hoping for a Cole Cameo lol
Hope this is good! I believe in them!
Btw 10 points for the headline
Love that tag line. Its like word up spun.
That's a unique looking katana.
@themcnoisy word up son.im the inventor.the crowd pleaser
will this game coming out next year in 2019 ?
@adf86 the whole tsushima affair has been in debate by historian specially the numbers of mongols and japs that fought in that battle and if im not mistaken the game will concentrate on ship infiltration.
Really hyped for this. I'm expecting a 'witcher3 in Japan' game
Ive totally forgotten about this game XD
My nr1 game from the sony conference.
Realy hoping for a early 2019 release date.
@TheFatDelinquent How is that even remotely possible?!
The tag-line for this article is genius, no matter which way you slice it.
@Octane It happens. I keep forgetting about it as well, and that's with it looking like the only game Sony is showcasing at E3 that I'd be remotely interested in playing.
God!!! I love Push Square 🤣 that tag-line is awesome. Shout out to @playstation1995 man xD
We're so close. More than Dear Stranding, I want to see gameplay of this title. I'll be hyped for DS regardless of what they're showing, but this one has to do a little more to win me over.
@RogerRoger Samurai and swords, slincin' and dicin' in good ol' Japan. How can you forget about that!
@Retro88 hahaha cant wait for e3 .im chilling like a villain.word up son
@Octane Well, apparently it's possible. I wouldn't have thought so either, but here we are!
I think it's another case of wanting to see a little more to really grab hold, and it's why I actually think Sony's approach to E3 this year is a winner. Don't spread our expectations too thin across a dozen pre-rendered trailers; show us the gameplay and the details we need to make informed decisions about upcoming releases.
Death Stranding is a perfect case in point, because nobody knows what the heck it's even about or what the gameplay is gonna be. We know a fraction more about Ghost of Tsushima, but it's not much.
Something tells me that, after E3, I won't be forgetting it again.
Woo, Swords up son! The hype train is slowly starting to build with all these teases. Ghost of Tsushima and Death Stranding alone will be enough to put me over the moon.
@get2sammyb For me, personally, I found The Last of Us to be incredibly boring. The story was interesting, but it just dragged for far too long and I felt myself just pushing through to get it over with. Death Stranding, on the other hand just looks intentionally jumbled up and vague in a way that Kojima is known for. It’s almost like we don’t know anything about it, but we still know exactly what we’re going to get. It seems to me that Ghosts of Tsushima, on the other hand, is hitting that “playing make-believe in the back yard as a kid” sweet spot just like Horizon Zero Dawn did with robot dinosaurs. Totally my opinions, of course, so feel free to disagree.
@Splints I'd love to see them drop Easter Eggs for both Sly and inFAMOUS in Ghost of Tsushima.
Either way definitely hyped about this game, loved Sly Cooper and inFAMOUS.
@Hordak I thought about when I was playing Second Son one day, and it played exactly like you were messing around as a kid pretending you had superpowers.
I can’t wait for this game. It’s gonna be so good. Most likely game of the year. I’ma duck out when it’s showed at E3. No spoilers at all. (That’s means you stop reporting on the game Sammy )
@adf86 I think it's because Last of Us is overrated and Death Stranding is bizarre...
From what I hace seen so far not that interested in the game its a shame because I enjoyed the previous games.
@doctommaso "Overrated" is hardly the reason, that's your own personal feeling.
@adf86 Of course it's my personal feeling — I'm the one saying it. lol
