Main Story-Related/Unmissable Achievements

Your friendly guide to unlocking every main story and unmissable achievement in Ghost of Tsushima. Learn how to get them all without missing a beat!

Hey there! So you're diving into Ghost of Tsushima and want to make sure you snag all those important achievements tied to the main story and other unmissable moments? Awesome! This guide is here to help you do just that, without any stress.

The great news is that in Ghost of Tsushima, you really can't miss achievements. The game is designed so that even after you finish the main story, you can still go back and explore, complete side quests, and find everything you need. So, no need to worry about locking yourself out of anything!

However, and this is a big one, the game can be a bit buggy sometimes. Seriously, save your game often! Like, really often. Some players have run into issues where certain missions, collectibles like lighthouses or fox shrines, or even character side quests can glitch out and become impossible to complete. If that happens, your best bet is usually to load an earlier save. It's a pain, but it's better than replaying huge chunks of the game or starting over.

The guide mentions that the collectibles tracker might show a different number than what's actually needed for certain achievements, especially with the Iki Island DLC included in the Director's Cut. For example, the 'Light the Way' achievement might track lighthouses, but you might only need to light 8 out of 10 to get it. Just keep an eye on that and don't stress if the numbers don't quite add up perfectly in the tracker.

Overall, the achievements in Ghost of Tsushima are pretty straightforward. The best approach is to just enjoy the game, play through the story at your own pace, and then use this guide if you're hunting down any specific achievements you might have missed or want to double-check. Happy gaming!
