Ghost Of Tsushima
For the second time in as many months, we wonder how our Share button is still with us. Tsushima is a virtual photographer’s dream; in fact, the island feels as if it’s been built with its own photo mode in mind. This is quite simply one of the most picturesque game worlds we’ve ever seen. It’s beautiful even before the wind whistles across its pampas grass and through its shrine gates, but when the breeze whips up a storm of maple leaves, sakura petals and more, it’s wondrous to behold.
