Ghost of Tsushima Update 2.18 Now Live With Patch Notes

04/12/2022 03:13 pm EDT

Following its announcement at the end of last week, developer Sucker Punch Productions has now released the latest patch for Ghost of Tsushima. This update, which is version 2.18, primarily brings about changes to the multiplayer aspect of the title Ghost of Tsushima: Legends. However, a couple alterations for the single-player section of the game are also in tow. 

For the most part, update 2.18 for Ghost of Tsushima is one that is meant to squash some lingering bugs. Outside of these fixes, though, a number of items in Legends have been rebalanced just a bit. If you're someone who plays Legends with friends on a routine basis, it will be important to take note of these changes so that you're aware of which weapons have gotten better and which ones have become worse.

On the single-player front of Ghost of Tsushima, the only thing that has really been tweaked involves the Silk inventory held by merchants during New Game Plus. Other than this, some fixes to cutscenes, notably with dialogue, have also come about. 

If you'd like to download this new Ghost of Tsushima update for yourself, it's available now on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. You can also find the full patch notes for this update attached below.
