Ghost of Tsushima gets its last major update

Sucker Punch has released the latest major update for Ghost of Tsushima. The authors said that they are no longer going to support and develop the game, but will follow the feedback from fans and fix minor bugs.

Patch 2.18 (2.018.000 on PS5) for the Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut and Legends focuses on item changes, bug fixes and improvements, as well as minor single player changes.

Patch 2.18 contains the following updates

legends

• Fixed a bug due to which the health of an ally could drop below zero, and then death was counted in his game and in trials. When this bug occurred, players might not receive the Secret Thought Swordsman Pack.
• The standalone edition of Legends now includes a button to transfer saved data from PS4 consoles.‎ To transfer data, select Yes when the transfer window appears.
• Fixed a bug due to which the killer's ability "Vanish" ceased to function when the difficulty modifier "General Wounds" was active.
• When searching for players for the squad, a new goal is available "Custom game - perfect playthrough." By selecting it, those players who need a set of swords "Secret Thoughts" will be able to search for matches separately from those who play with a different goal.
• Fixed an issue that caused Black Powder Bombs to not count towards certain Mastery Challenges.
• Fixed a bug due to which incorrect modifiers were displayed in silver and gold Survival quests.
• Fixed an issue where a player could receive less rewards in Survival Mode if their Ghost died after the last wave but before the results window appeared.
• Fixed a very rare issue that prevented completion of the Legend Mode tutorial.
