Sucker Punch Productions is a studio that made a name for itself by developing the Sly Cooper and Infamous franchises. Having proven itself as an asset to PlayStation, the studio decided to embark on a new challenge by crafting a new IP and, after years of development and research, Ghost of Tsushima was released in 2020. An open-world title set on Japan’s Tsushima island, the game has been a stellar success selling over eight million copies worldwide. The game's depiction of Tsushima island is so enchantingly gorgeous that the game's directors, Nate Fox and Jason Connell, were made tourism ambassadors of the island's real-world counterpart. To satisfy fans eager to see more of Tsushima and its samurai, a film is also in the works.
