Based on the first Mongol Invasion of Japan in the 13th century, which kicked off on the island of Tsushima, Ghost of Tsushima has its roots planted firmly in real-world events- but in the lead-up to the game's launch, Sucker Punch made it abundantly clear on multiple occasions that historical accuracy was not the point of their game.
