Built around various co-operative missions based around Japanese mythology, Ghost Of Tsushima: Legends will launch as a free update on October 16 for all owners. New Game+ will also be added as part of the update.
Numerous two and four player missions will be available for players to jump in and fight an onslaught of enemies as a team. In order to access the sleuth of missions, players will find a new character in Ghost Of Tsushima’s world. From here, you can access the multiplayer lobby and dive into the action.
Two mission types will be added when it launches. Story missions are designed for two players and will include some unique stories. Higher difficulties can be unlocked, and as players progress they will unlock new encounters, tougher enemies, bonus objectives, and greater rewards.
Survival missions are built for four players and will have groups facing waves of enemies. Blessings can be activated, which will activate modifiers such as igniting enemies on fire or summoning a spirit bear. In the coming weeks a Raid will also be incorporated. Squads of four will need higher levelled gear and will be set across a three part adventure. Teams will need to communicate and work together to survive.
