Ghost Of Tsushima Pays Tribute To The PS4 Era With These Origami Easter Eggs
Ghost of Tsushima is the last big PS4 exclusive. It’s the end of an era, and there’s a long legacy of spectacular exclusives in the PS4’s library. Sucker-Punch, the developers of Ghost of Tsushima and Infamous: Second Son before it were always a Sony Exclusive dev, and they’re paying tribute to their Playstation brothers / sisters in an extremely cute way — with origami.
Take a look at the origami figures shared above, and try to guess as many as you can — even Playstation stans might struggle to name all 12 origami figures. There are references ranging from the obvious like God of War and Ratchet & Clank to the less-than-obvious. After chatting with a few friends, I think we’ve got all the origami figured out, so let’s get to listing all the Easter eggs right here.

Finding these Easter eggs is only a minor spoiler — you’ll need to complete the main story, then visit Jin’s house on the island. The origami are collected on a low table where his prized sword is displayed.
There are 12 origami figures total. That’s 12 references to PS4 games, so let’s go through them all, from left-to-right.
- The red car has got to be from the Gran Turismo series.
- A Tallneck from Horizon Zero Dawn — that’s one of the easy ones.
- The motorcycle has to represent your ride in Days Gone.
- There’s the face of a Lombax, Ratchet’s species from Ratchet & Clank.
- The first colossus you face in Shadow of the Colossus. That’s another easy one.
- Why, is that the Leviathan Axe from the PS4 God of War? Boy?
- Below that, we have a guitar, the instrument Ellie plays throughout The Last Of Us: Part 2.
- Next to the axe, we have an origami paintbrush. That has to be Concrete Genie.
- Right of the paintbrush, there’s a strange figure. An alien? Nope, that’s an imp-in-shades from do-it-yourself wonder Dreams!
- Below the brush, if you look carefully, you can spot the silhouette of Ludens, the mascot of Death Stranding developer Kojima Productions.
- What’s the Tetris block? I had no idea, but after some investigation, it turns out this is the logo for Blood & Truth developer SIE London Studio. Mystery solved!
- And finally, we have a baseball bat and ball — that can only be MLB: The Show.
That’s a whole lot of references. If you managed to get half of these, I think you’re a pretty big fan — and it’s always nice to see developers throwing some love to their peers.
There’s a whole lot of game to love in Ghost of Tsushima, and we’re excited to see what Sucker-Punch and the rest of the Playstation developers do next.
