Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut PC cross-play and system requirements revealed

PlayStation overlay, cross-play, and Trophy support!
Hey everyone, Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut is coming to PC on May 16! Today we're giving you all the details on cross-play support in Legends mode and the inclusion of a new PlayStation overlay, with support for PlayStation Trophies and more.

As we've announced previously, Ghost on Tsushima Director's Cut on PC contains the full game, the Iki Island expansion, and the cooperative online multiplayer Legends mode. Thanks to cross-play support, Legends players on Windows PCs can team up with players on both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles and use in-game voice chat to communicate. You will be required to sign into your PlayStation Network account to access Legends mode.

Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut is the first PlayStation title on PC that uses a new PlayStation overlay, which includes your Friends list, Trophies, Settings, and your Profile. This feature is available on Windows PCs and will be accessible from the in-game menu or, for keyboard players, by pressing the "SHIFT +F1" shortcut on your keyboard.

While playing the game, you can earn PlayStation Trophies just like on PlayStation consoles. Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut on PC shares the same Trophy set as the game on PlayStation 5 consoles*. In addition, the PC version also has full support for Achievements on Steam and the Epic Games Store.

To make use of features like Trophies, Friends list, and cross-play, you can sign in with your existing account for PlayStation Network or create a new account. The use of PlayStation overlay is optional for both the single player experience and Legends mode.

When bringing a game over from PlayStation consoles to PC, the team at Nixxes always strives to give a great experience to as many players as possible. In Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut on PC, you'll find a range of graphics presets aimed at making the game run well on older hardware, as well as making it shine on high-end PCs.** Below you'll find the details on recommended hardware for various presets that are available in the game.

As detailed in our initial announcement, Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut on PC is fully optimized for ultra-wide monitors, with support for 21:9 and 32:9 resolutions. Even 48:9 resolutions and triple monitor set-ups are supported.

You can boost your frame rates with NVIDIA DLSS 3, AMD FSR 3, or Intel XeSS, or further enhance image quality with NVIDIA DLAA or AMD FSR 3 Native AA.*** The game also features extensive controller support, including full support for the PlayStation DualSense controller with haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, while using a wired connecting.

At Nixxes and Sucker Punch, we've been overwhelmed by the positive response from the PC community to our initial announcement. Many of you are looking forward to experiencing Jin's story and to engage in the cooperative multiplayer Legends mode and we can't wait to make that happen when the game launches on May 16.

Wonder how well it will run on the Deck - since it's originally a PS4 game I hope steady 30 FPS is possible with native res.

Is it weird that i think these requirements are generally quite high when looking at what the PS4 was and how well GoT ran and looke on it? :/

So if I register my ps account, it will automatically sync Steam achievements into trophies?

I honestly wouldn't mind them trying a separate GOT Legends style game at some point. It was a really fun online MP game that I actually preferred to the base game in a lot of ways.

PS Trophies on PC via an overlay is fantastic! And it's totally optional too. Great implementation.

Awaiting people using Cheat Engine to earn easy plats on PC now 😅

If this new PlayStation overlay helps with syncing steam achievements to trophies for other games in the future, I can finally dump this console 👀

This game is absolutely beautiful. Art direction is simply stunning. Everyone on PC should play it.

I said this would happen years ago with PSN features getting extended into PC ecosystems as PS try to get PC players they can't otherwise reach to interact with their own ecosystem, and got silly arguments that it never would - and here we are.
Hopefully it is implemented well. I imagine any Deck/SteamOS integrations of the overlay are a lower priority.

I have to admit, I completely forgot this was coming to PC but man I do want to play this. I've been wanting to. Hope it's a great port!

Trophies and it's not tied to any sort of PlayStation store on PC? Fuck that's awesome.

I wonder if we could see retroactive support for trophies on the games already ported 🤔

I will be there.

Later, when it's on sale. This is too expensive for a 4 years old game.

Not a console gamer so I personally don't care about PS trophies, on PC having Steam achievements is enough for me, but this is a super nice thing to happen for people deeply involved in the PS ecosystem who also play on PC.

I just hope the overlay is optional, I don't like having redundant ones running while I play.

This is great, but I am afraid this will be limited to PlayStation PC releases. Would really love to also have that in 3rd Party games that have a PlayStation version.

Super surprised they got crossplay working. This is great.
Technically I think it's a solved problem and has been for a while so not super surprised.

I am just curious about this solution that they have taken with the trophies versus other options in terms of what it means for the post above.

That's pretty neat. Definitely moving towards more/quicker PC ports (day one) with that type of investment beyond the ports themselves.
