Ghost of Tsushima: Legends Getting Standalone Release

In appreciation to an overwhelming fan-response for PlayStation 4-exclusive samurai action-adventure game Ghost of Tsushima last year, developer Sucker Punch Productions added a free multiplayer online co-op mode titled "Legends".

Receiving an even better feedback from player-community, Sucker Punch has recently revealed to launch Legends mode as a standalone product across PS4 and PS5 consoles along with Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut on August 20, 2021.

Sucker Punch also announces to release an all-new Rivals mode that features new cosmetics and Trophies, coming soon on September 3, 2021. Players will compete each other in fighting waves of enemies by joining two teams of duos.

You will be collecting Magatama whenever taking down a foe and use them to cause harm on opponent team. Players can buy Shades to block purchases of other group, cast Curses to drain health or having them blown up and much more.

Spending enough amount of in-world currency lets you unlock Final Stand waves and complete before your opponents to secure victory. Legends will also expand current progression system beyond level 110 with new Gear Mastery system.

When a gear reaches level 110, bind it to a Legend class and then activate "Mastery Challenges" and max out its Ki level to 120. This allows for unlocking another perk slot into your loadout as well as unique Abilities and Techniques for classes.
