Ghost of Tsushima’s multiplayer mode is getting new content and a standalone release
0Sony and developer Sucker Punch have announced Ghost of Tsushima’s multiplayer mode, Legends, is getting some new free content and a standalone release.
The standalone release will be available on September 3rd for $19.99 / €19.99 / £15.99 on both PS4 and PS5.
A big new 2v2 mode called Rivals will be introduced to Legends on the same day.
In a PlayStation Blog, Senior Game Designer at Sucker Punch Productions, Darren Bridges, said: “In Rivals, two teams of two will compete to defeat waves of enemies. With each defeated foe, you’ll collect Magatama that you can use to harm the other team.
“For example, you can spend Magatama on Shades to block your opponents’ purchases, Curses (health drain, exploding bodies, etc), Hwacha fire, and more.
“Once you’ve spent enough Magatama, you’ll unlock Final Stand waves. Complete these before the opposing team to win!”
Legends fans are also in for a treat, as players will also get a Gear Mastery system to further kit out their gear.
According to Bridges: “Players who’ve earned 110-level gear will now be able to bind it to a class and activate “Mastery Challenges.
“This will allow a piece of gear’s Ki level to be upgraded to 120 and eventually unlock a second perk slot! As you activate Mastery Challenges, you can also unlock a new Ability and new Techniques for each class.”
