“As we announced in August, Ghost of Tsushima: Legends is a brand new, online cooperative multiplayer experience that will be a free update for all Ghost of Tsushima owners. A classic element of some of our favorite samurai films is warriors standing together, ready to fight as a team… Legends features two-player story missions and four-player survival missions, as well as a Raid that we’ll release in the weeks following launch. “
