A new Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut patch is out now on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. Sucker Punch has released a number of minor updates over the last couple of weeks, but this one — patch 2.008 — features some welcome adjustments. It's around 2GB in size.
For starters, it improves load times when you're switching equipment and cosmetics. Before this update, it could take a few seconds for Jin's outfit to load when scrolling through available gear. Not a huge deal, but it could get a bit annoying when you wanted to compare different costumes.
On top of that, this patch reenables colour button prompts. In the original Ghost of Tsushima, all button prompts — when assassinating enemies, or interacting with various things — were different colours, making them easier to understand at a glance. However, in Director's Cut, all button prompts were made black and white. A stylistic choice that quickly drew criticism from some players. Well, the colours are back with this new update.
Good stuff, then. Are you playing through Ghost of Tsushima? Show us your resolve in the comments section below.

Has the Japanese lip syncing issue been fixed? I saw a video comparing the Japanese and English syncing and it was still terrible in the Japanese version - people were saying it was actually a bug.
I haven't fired up the PS5 version since finishing Iki - and still have yet to actually try the Japanese audio option as I saw that video AFTER I upgraded to the PS5 version and didn't bother turning the option on since it was still bad.
Yeah I was scratching my head when I was going thru the items and it took a while to load them up. Only because Fast travel is STUNNING really and I thought it should be instant everything else. That blew me away anyway I really hope proper future PS5 only games all do that to
@Carl-G Fast Travel is now istant teleportation! Watch dogs upgrade effectively is too but still has the loading screens. Looking forward to some sort of transitional animations at worst when we're done with last gen .........
Just finished this DLC last night. While not long, it was solid throughout. Can't wait to dive back into Legends once more of my friends grab it.
@Carl-G Yeah, I kept thinking to myself how it could take longer to load an outfit than fast travel across the whole map, lol.
Just finished the main game and jumping into the expansion. This is Sucker Punches best game to date IMO. I know that's saying a lot but a fantastic game.
I I was hoping they would add a patch to make the loading of Cosmetics faster. It seems like it should be instantaneous on the PS5, and it wasn't.
Glad they patched out that annoying wait for cosmetics. It always felt weird when everything else is lightning fast.
The colour button prompts don’t make sense with the PS5 dual sense.
Games a year old and it's the second time they're selling it and it still needs a 2gig patch? Well ok then...
What if you liked the black and white button prompts? Is it an option?
@Digit2021 yeah it would make sense to revert to colours for the PS4 version at least.
Happy to see they are supporting the game with patches!
I still haven't got around to play the expansion yet still doing the main story for a second time, hopefully will get around to it this weekend, not going to rush to get there as I'm still enjoying the main game it's a stunning game.
@Onett The video I saw really didn’t shine a good light. The timing of the mouth movement was correct but the shape of the mouth didn’t match the sounds of the Japanese language.
