Ghost of Tsushima came out a little over a year ago to both critical and commercial acclaim. And the game is going to get a Director’s Cut just for the PlayStation 5 in less than 10 days. But in what seems to be a bizarre incident, one member of the gaming community has somehow got their hands on the upcoming version of the game ahead of its release. The individual put up a post on Reddit for everyone to see, and now everyone’s confused and wants answers about how this is even possible.

The most perplexing part is that this picture of the cover confirms the game contains the IKI expansion pack. And everything else about the cover also seems pretty legit.

Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut: Are there other people who got the game before release?

So far, no one else has come forward and claimed they have a copy of the game that is yet to release. By the looks of things, the Reddit member is the only person who has the Director’s Cut version of the game. This is just not a common occurrence, where people get products before they are officially released. This is nothing like a leak or anything either. It’s just a bizarre incident that will most likely never be repeated.

All that being said, the members of the community are really curious about whether the game is fake.

Is the game the Reddit member got fake?

The cover seems too real for the game to be fake. But the OP is yet to reveal whether everything works the way it should. The consensus is that the game is not fake. Maybe the OP will provide updates on their unbelievable acquisition soon. All that members of the community can do now is wait and see if the OP updates their post.
