Sucker Punch Studio's samurai-themed sequel, "The Soul of Sheep Hoof Mountain", takes place hundreds of years after the original "The Soul of Tsushima".Normally, the studio sets the sequel's timeline hundreds of years after the original work, in order to make it easier for new players to get started without worrying too much about the plot coherence between the previous work and the sequel.Generally speaking, "Soul of Sheep Hoof Mountain" is not closely related to "Soul of Tsushima Island", but it contains a side mission that directly connects two works - answering some questions about the ending of the previous protagonist Hitoshi Shizui, and perhaps also laying new mysteries.

The following contains spoilers:

In a side mission called "Blade of Storm", Ajin, the protagonist of "Sheng Hoof Mountain", is directed to a hidden area of ​​Sheep Hoof Mountain, where there is a seemingly arsenal of weapons that have existed for hundreds of years, which houses some items that players may be able to recognize, such as a helmet and a pair of saddles.While climbing in the area, Ajin discovered Jijing Ren's sword in a cave.However, at this moment, she was ambushed by the enemy. One of them took away the sword and fled. Ajin immediately launched a pursuit.After finding the enemy's trace, she also discovered a suspected last residence and resting place of Jingjing Ren.Later, Yuyue, a resident storyteller in the game, revealed to the players that Hitomi Hitomi later became the first ninja, and "some people say" that he spent his last time in Hokkaido.After completing this task, you will get the Saber and Armor Set of Jirihito.

Now we know where Hitoshiki Hitoshi was after the end of the story of "The Soul of Tsushima Island", but there are still questions about his experience in the Ekima and how he eventually passed away.However, at least players can get some comfort from it."Soul of Sheep Hoof Mountain" has been launched on PlayStation 5 today. Although it has not brought much change, it still sounds like an excellent sequel to the open world warrior game Sucker Punch.
