As a longtime fan who first experienced Jin Sakai's journey on PlayStation, I never imagined I would one day be playing Ghost of Tsushima on my PC. Yet here we are in 2026, and the Director's Cut has been part of my Steam library for nearly two years. Sony Interactive Entertainment President Jim Ryan once made it clear that the goal was to reach players beyond PlayStation consoles, and that promise has largely come true. But now that the game is on PC, a new question nags at me: where are all the mods? Sure, the community has done some impressive work, but I still have a wishlist that feels straight out of a samurai fever dream. What more could a wandering warrior ask for?

Here is a quick look at the mods I keep dreaming about:

🗡️ A Zoro Skin That Actually Fits

Fans who played Ghost of Tsushima in Japanese dub already know that Jin Sakai is voiced by Kazuya Nakai, the same iconic actor who brings Roronoa Zoro to life in One Piece. That connection alone makes a Zoro skin feel almost destined. Zoro's lineage is tied to Wano Country, a setting based on Japan, so the samurai context overlaps beautifully. While there are not many current games where modders can pull a full Zoro model from, a complete-set Zoro mod would be a dream for fans of the manga and anime. I can already picture Jin wearing Zoro's green haramaki, three swords, and bandana. Wouldn't that be the crossover we never knew we needed?

⚔️ Enma: The Sword That Cut Through Fate

Staying on the topic of samurai and One Piece, the addition of the sword Enma would be a perfect fit. The game already offers a plethora of sword kits, but Enma carries a mythic weight that would appeal to anime fans. It would join the collection of blades from film, anime, and games that players can almost certainly see implemented when possible. For new players, this could heighten the base game experience even more. If Sucker Punch or the PC porting team made the game mod friendly, modders could decide whether Enma replaces existing sword kits or simply increases the amount. I know I would love to test its cutting power against Mongols.

💇 Hairstyle Customization for Jin

Despite the presence of customization for outfits, masks, and headwear, Ghost of Tsushima does not contain any way for the player to adjust Jin Sakai's hairstyle. This could ultimately come down to design choices by Sucker Punch and the idea of staying lore specific. But on PC, fans are waiting to see if the game's engine would enable modders to tweak such features. I think of what players can do in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt with the help of NVIDIA Hairworks, and I wonder: why can't Jin have a few more hair options? A topknot, loose hair, or even a straw hat with different hair underneath would add personality without breaking immersion.

👻 Legends Outfits in the Campaign

Sucker Punch earned high praise not only for the campaign but also for Ghost of Tsushima: Legends, the free multiplayer experience. It contained a vast amount of outfits, skins, and classes unlockable through challenges. While it is not out of the question for Sucker Punch to implement these in the campaign later, players who have wished to use multiplayer-exclusive outfits would be pleased to see a mod. This would serve the purpose of allowing players to tune and adjust their play style to their liking. I would love to wear the Ronin or Assassin gear while roaming Tsushima alone. Isn't customization one of the best parts of any samurai fantasy?

🥋 Enemy Movesets and New Stances

One of the more prominent reasons Ghost of Tsushima is held in such high regard is its unique combat, allowing players to use five different stances, including the Ghost stance. Similar to what modders have done with Sloclap's Sifu by introducing different movesets, allowing the player to emulate some of the moves enemies use against Jin would be a fun addition. While fans await confirmation or any reveal regarding a potential sequel, this would be the perfect mod to keep players engaged. It would open up new and more exciting duels with enemies, ultimately offering a new gameplay experience. Who wouldn't want to counter a Mongol leader with their own technique?

🎵 Custom Soundtracks and OST Swaps

Many fans familiar with the game's soundtrack know how suitable it is to combat scenarios and cutscenes. With Insomniac Games' recent PC port of Spider-Man, modders found a way to use other soundtracks in traversal. Beside there currently being no confirmation of Ghost of Tsushima coming to PC—well, that was true back in 2022, but now we have it—this would be heavily dependent on game files and whether they are mod compatible. Adding such a feature would result in many using soundtracks suitable to their needs, possibly going hand in hand with skin and outfit mods. While the OST for the title is critically acclaimed, the option to add to this could favor accessibility. I would personally love to ride through the fields with a lo-fi remix or a traditional shamisen track.

🩸 Finishers and Executions Frequency

In the midst of stealth or activating the Ghost stance, the player is able to neutralize enemies with specific finishers and executions. Whether enemies fall to the ground in fear, crawl in pain, or get decapitated while sneaking up on Mongol leaders, players have a variety of play styles to choose from. As a potential sequel may expand upon finishers and play styles, a mod that enables certain moves to happen more occasionally would once again refine gameplay to players' needs. I want to choose when to perform a specific execution, not leave it entirely to chance. Wouldn't that make every encounter feel more personal?

🏁 Final Thoughts

In 2026, Ghost of Tsushima is available on PS4, PS5, and PC. The modding scene has only just begun to scratch the surface. While I appreciate the original vision, I cannot help but imagine what a few well-crafted mods could do. From Zoro's swords to Enma, from hairstyles to Legends outfits, from enemy movesets to custom soundtracks, the possibilities are endless. If you love Ghost of Tsushima, there are many other samurai games to play, but none quite like this one. So, Sucker Punch, if you are listening: please make the PC version as mod friendly as possible. The samurai community is ready.

This discussion is informed by reporting from PC Gamer, where ongoing coverage of PC ports and modding culture helps explain why Ghost of Tsushima’s community tools are still catching up to player ambitions—especially for deeper overhauls like moveset swaps, soundtrack injection, and campaign-accessible cosmetics that typically require robust asset pipelines and file access.
