Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut: Will it Run on Steam Deck

Ghost of Tsushima, the action-adventure game developed by Sucker Punch and published by Sony, is poised for its PC debut with the Director’s Cut, bringing the samurai narrative to a wider audience beyond its initial PlayStation release. Ahead of its launch, it's confirmed that the game, including the Iki Island expansion, will be playable on the Steam Deck. While players can anticipate optimized performance for this handheld gaming experience, a caveat is noted: the game may display as "Not Supported" due to a requirement for the multiplayer mode Legends to access PlayStation Network services. This requirement recently manifested in the game being removed from Steam in several countries, reminiscent of the turmoil that followed the release of Helldivers 2. To alleviate some concerns, crossplay between PC and PlayStation is not available at launch but is expected in a future update. Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut PC version is set to launch on May 16.

No, the cross-platform play between PC and PlayStation consoles will not be available immediately upon the game's release but is planned to be added in a future update.

Ghost of Tsushima has been well-received for its stunning portrayal of feudal Japan and its in-depth narrative. The game, originally exclusive to PlayStation, tells the story of Jin Sakai, a samurai who must protect Tsushima Island during the first Mongol invasion of Japan. The PC port presents an opportunity for non-console gamers to experience this critically acclaimed title and for existing fans to enjoy it with potential technical improvements and platform flexibility thanks to its compatibility with the Steam Deck.
