We’ll share epic concept art that’s driving the tone and visuals for the game, and share a little about our reference trips to Japan and working with new team members that are helping make Ghost of Tsushima even better. Also be sure to stop by our signing session after the panel and come say hi. Stay tuned for more info on time and location.

We recently unveiled just a taste of the of the PlayStation Gear one will find this year at the PlayStation Gear store. With our biggest lineup of clothing, collectibles, and limited edition products, you are bound to find the perfect gift for yourself and everyone on your holiday gift list.
