Story Missions

Master Ghost of Tsushima's story missions with this walkthrough. Learn about achievements, New Game+, and essential tips to conquer Tsushima.

Hey there! So you're diving into Ghost of Tsushima and want to get a handle on the main story missions? Awesome choice, it's a fantastic game. This guide will help you navigate through Jin's journey to liberate Tsushima. We'll cover what you need to know about the story achievements, how New Game+ works, and some general tips to make your playthrough smoother.

Key Things to Know:

• PlayStation Network Account: Essential for the 'Legends' (multiplayer) mode achievements.
• New Game+: Two achievements are locked behind NG+. You'll need to beat the game again and purchase an item from a vendor named Baku.
• No Missable Achievements (Mostly): Besides the two NG+ achievements, you can get everything else after completing the main story.
• Order of Operations: It's highly recommended to complete all other achievements before starting New Game+. Some collectibles don't carry over.
• Difficulty: Single-player achievements are not affected by the difficulty setting, and you can change it anytime.
• Collectibles: Finding collectibles becomes much easier once you've finished the main story.
• Iki Island (DLC): You can technically access it at the start of Act 2, but it's best to wait until after you've completed the main story. The enemies are tougher, and it makes more narrative sense to explore it once Tsushima is safe.
• Multiplayer (Legends): Be prepared for a significant time investment, potentially around 20 hours. Raids can be challenging and require good teamwork. Joining the official Discord server can help you find groups.

General Tips:

• Open World Exploration: Since Ghost of Tsushima is an open-world game, many points of interest are revealed on the map after liberating an area or camp.
• Charm of Inari: This is a super useful charm! Try to get it as early as possible. It can double the amount of upgrade materials you find, like supplies, bamboo, steel, and linen. You can find it by climbing the Arrow Peak Shrine in the first area of the game.

This guide focuses on the overarching structure and requirements for completing the game, rather than detailing every single mission step. For specific mission walkthroughs, you'll usually find those revealed as you liberate camps and progress through the story. Enjoy your journey across Tsushima!
