A new story trailer for the Ghost of Tsushima for the Iki Island expansion has revealed the big, band enemy that our hero Jin must go up against.

I won’t give spoilers away here, but the Iki Island expansion is not accessible until Act 2 of the main campaign, so you don’t have to worry about post-ending spoilers.

In the Iki Island expansion, Jin must face a new Mongol leaker who has overruled the island with a wrath of tyranny. The new enemy is called Ankhsar Khatun, who is also known as “The Eagle”.

According to the PlayStation Blog, in Iki Island: “Jin’s journey begins when he discovers that a mysterious Mongol tribe has gained a foothold on Iki. They are led by a revered shaman called Ankhsar Khatun, known to her followers as “the Eagle.” As both a khatun and a shaman, she is not only a conqueror of nations, but a shepherd of souls. And the danger she presents to Jin and his people is unlike any they have faced.

Our semi-fictional version of Iki Island provides a stark contrast to Tsushima. It is a wild, lawless land of raiders and criminals, scarred by memories of war, and fiercely independent; the samurai have not been in control there for decades. Skilled though he is, Jin can’t take on the Mongols alone. He will have to work with—or around—a coterie of unsavoury characters to take the fight to the Eagle.

Iki Island will be included in the Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut which will release for PS4 and PS5 on August 20th.
