Sony is currently in the midst of its CES 2025 press conference and used the event to make some big announcements.
First off the bat is Sony-owned Crunchyroll and Aniplex are teaming up to do an anime TV series based on the acclaimed and popular 2020 PlayStation video game “Ghost of Tsushima”.
No further details were on offer about the series including production times and anyone else involved at present, though a 2027 release date is being targeted. Further details are expected to be forthcoming.
Heavily inspired by filmmaker Akira Kurosawa’s works, the highly acclaimed game is set on Tsushima Island off the Japanese coast in the 13th century. The story begins as the fearsome Mongol Empire invades the island, wreaking havoc.
As one of the last surviving samurai, Jin Sakai rises from the ashes to fight back. The game sold nearly 10 million copies in its first two years when it was an exclusive to the platform. It was finally released on PC last year.
