Sucker Punch Productions’ co-op Legends mode in Ghost of Tsushima blew me away, and I think that’s going to be the consensus going forward more players – even folks who don’t typically go for this sort of multiplayer side offering – dig into the free update. Here’s what’s coming up next.
As promised, the first raid, The Tale of Iyo, isn’t far off – it will be playable on October 30. That said, Legends players won’t be able to waltz in with an under-powered crew of randoms. The “absolute minimum” Ki requirement is level 100, and the raid won’t have matchmaking, meaning we’ll need to form our own groups ahead of time. I can’t say I’m surprised, but I am bummed.
For the rest of us who are nowhere near that threshold, there will be a Nightmare-tier Story and Survival mission to check out every Friday starting at 8:00 a.m. Pacific with “weekly modifiers” to spice them up. “They’ll be very difficult, but if you and your fellow Ghosts are able to complete them along with all bonus objectives, you’ll get max-level gear that will help you become Raid ready.”
Sucker Punch also announced a patch that’s going out today with fixes for network errors, crashes, and a tutorial glitch. There’s also now support for PSN’s “Player’s Met” feature in Legends.
This is the gift that keeps on giving. I’ll probably still be playing by the time the PS5 is out.
