Ghost of Tsushima releases tomorrow on PC. We already know your requirements and the truth is that they are quite affordablesomething that makes perfect sense since we’re looking at a game that was developed for the PS4, a previous generation console that has 2012 hardware.

Sony has confirmed that we will be able to play the main adventure without needing a PSN account, but that to access the online multiplayer mode known as Legends, Yes, it will be necessary to have the specified account. This is why Ghost of Tsushima has been removed from Steam in countries where PlayStation Network is not accessible.

Nixxes, developer of the PC port, also confirmed that Ghost of Tsushima is so well optimized that It will go smoothly on Steam Deckalthough the game is listed as “unsupported” because it requires a Windows operating system to access a PSN account, and Valve’s console uses Steam OS.

We don’t have details on the settings and graphics configuration we can use, but looking at the minimum requirements and specs of the Steam Deck, I think it’s most likely that the game works fine in 720p with low or medium low quality. This is a theory, you already know that the requirements are ultimately approximate references and that the final performance can vary widely.

Like Ghost of Tsushima supports FSR 3 What is certain is that this technology will improve performance and eventually end the game better than expected on Steam Deck.

Regarding the controversy surrounding the PlayStation account requirement in Ghost of Tsushima, which also happened earlier with Helldivers 2, I have to say that it seems inappropriate for Sony to make such a requirement, and that I believe they are ultimately throw rocks on your own roof, because it leaves out a large number of PC players.

However, and in fairness, Sony It is not the first company who preferred to use self-service accounts. Other companies like EA and Ubisoft have been doing this for a long time, and even after they gave up and brought their core games to Steam, they kept using said accounts. It’s something that no one likes, but unfortunately there is no other way to play these companies’ titles now.

Most players are clear, the simplest and most effective solution would be that Sony stopped requiring a PlayStation account to play on PCsomething I don’t think will happen at this point.
