Ghost of Tsushima<\/em><\/strong> has been available on PlayStation 4 for just under two months. While not without its criticism, the open-world action game was warmly received and very successful in terms of sales. Thus it\u00a0may surprise some that Ghost of Tsushima<\/em><\/a>‘s developer Sucker Punch Productions was not\u00a0always confident in the project. In fact, Sucker Punch was apparently nervous about the idea prior to making its\u00a0initial pitch.<\/p>\n

The issue was\u00a0that Sucker Punch is a development studio based in Bellevue, Washington, while its parent company Sony is\u00a0based out of Japan. Ghost of Tsushima<\/em> is a game immersed in Japanese history and culture, so Sucker Punch<\/a> was worried about how the pitch would be received.<\/p>\n

Sucker Punch Co-Founder\u00a0Brian Fleming<\/a> explained the situation during a PAX Online panel today. He said Sucker Punch first went to Shuhei Yoshida, who had been President of Sony Interactive Entertainment’s Worldwide Studios for over 10 years, thinking, “If we aren’t able to convince Shu … then we couldn’t do it.” The developer\u00a0pitched the idea to Yoshida\u00a0with the explicit intent to see how he would react to the idea of “a western team tackling this material.”<\/p>\n
