Ghost Of Tsushima: All Memory Locations

Memories in Ghost of Tsushima tell the tale of Jin Sakai in more detail, but they're not always easy to find. Here are all their locations.

One of the hardest trophies to get in Ghost of Tsushima is the 'Common Courtesy' one, which deals with discovering all the hidden tales across Iki Island. There is a reason it calls these tales hidden. They are hard to find unless players know where to look.

A Proper Burial

The first of the hidden tales that players may come across on their journey across Iki island is near where players first arrive on the island:

  • After a horrific shipwreck, Jin stumbles ashore to find his horse missing.
  • Players should follow the northern coast to the east to discover what's left of the ship scattered about on the beach.
  • Among the wreckage, players will discover the remains of the ship's captain. Interacting with his remains will allow players to give him a proper burial with a pile of rocks and a flag.

Help The Beekeeper
