Jin Sakai's Character Introduction
Sacrificing Honor to Protect His Homeland
The samurai forces of Tsushima were annihilated by the cunning strategist Khotun Khan of the Mongol Empire, and the island was engulfed in the flames of invasion. Jin, as the last survivor of the Sakai clan, decides to protect the people of Tsushima, even if it means resorting to unorthodox methods that go against the way of the samurai.
Riding Through Tsushima with His Beloved Horse
Ghost of Tsushima is an open-world game where you can freely explore a vast map. Ride through the beautiful nature of Japan with your beloved horse. The developers have revealed that "the horse may be scared and run away from blood and combat, but it will never die."
Characteristics of Jin Sakai
Fights using two combat styles
Jin Sakai has two combat styles: "Samurai," where he fights honorably face-to-face, and "Ghost," where he uses dishonorable tactics like stealth attacks. Players can freely choose between "Samurai" and "Ghost" styles, or even utilize both depending on their playstyle.
Customization of swords and equipment is possible
The sword Jin wields is a special sword passed down in the Sakai family, so there is no element of changing weapons like switching to a different sword. However, customization of the sword's blade pattern, scabbard, tsuba, and other parts is possible. Additionally, flowers for dyeing may be found across the map. Use these flowers to change the color of your armor and attire!
