Opinion: Ghost of Tsushima Legends’ ongoing support is impressive
Zarmena writes… Ghost of Tsushima Legends’ popularity took me by surprise. It was a little unexpected and I didn’t think it would have the legs that it does. But here we are, and Sucker Punch has done an excellent job with ongoing support. I’m curious to find out if the studio will continue Legends as it is à la GTA Online or if we’ll get a new, improved version with an inevitable sequel.
