Ghost of Tsushima's Crucial Patch Slashes Game-Breaking Bugs and Enhances Legends Mode!

The winds of Tsushima bring good news for Ghost of Tsushima fans! Sucker Punch Productions has rolled out a crucial new update, Patch 2.12 (also known as 2.012.000), for the Director's Cut on both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. This eagerly anticipated patch primarily targets several "permanent mission blocking bugs" that have unfortunately hindered some players' journeys through the beautiful yet war-torn island.

For those deeply invested in the challenging New Game+ mode, this patch is a breath of fresh air.

Players reported a particularly frustrating bug where, after purchasing gear from Baku the Voiceless – the enigmatic merchant who deals in the unique and powerful Ghost Flowers – they simply weren't receiving their hard-earned items. Imagine the disappointment of spending your valuable currency only for the rewards to vanish into thin air! This critical oversight has now been rectified, ensuring that Jin Sakai's enhanced arsenal and attire are properly delivered, allowing players to truly power up for their second (or third, or fourth) playthroughs.

Beyond the single-player saga, the update also brings significant improvements to the cooperative Legends mode.

Players previously encountered an annoying issue where they were unable to rejoin their friends from the PlayStation friends list after completing a Legends activity. This disruption to seamless co-op play meant more time spent fiddling with menus and less time slicing through Oni alongside your companions.

Thankfully, Sucker Punch has addressed this connectivity glitch, making it easier than ever to dive back into the mystical battles of Legends with your chosen allies.

These fixes underscore Sucker Punch's commitment to refining the Ghost of Tsushima experience. The Director's Cut, which includes the expansive Iki Island expansion, offers hundreds of hours of content, and ensuring that players can navigate this world without encountering game-halting obstacles is paramount.

Whether you're exploring the main narrative, delving into the secrets of Iki Island, or battling mythical foes in Legends, a smooth and uninterrupted experience is vital.

With Patch 2.12, players can once again fully immerse themselves in Jin's epic tale of redemption and resistance, free from the specter of progression-stalling bugs.

It’s a testament to the developers' dedication to their community, ensuring that the legacy of the Ghost remains as pristine and engaging as the day it first launched. Update your game, warrior, and reclaim your path!
