Pillars of Honor are nothing new in Ghost of Tsushima. Players have been discovering them since the game was first released, and they are the key to getting the Lost and Found trophy (though only one is needed for that). Now that Sucker Punch has released the Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut, players can now travel to Iki Island. Here, they can discover a whole new story along with brand new collectibles — and that includes new Pillars of Honor.
Of course, that doesn't come without any reward. Players will obtain a new sword kit each time they discover a new Pillar of Honor. Unfortunately, there is no new trophy to get for finding them all, but at least players can outfit Jin with some new looks.
Sentinel's Peak Pillar Of Honor
The first of the new Pillars of Honor is located in Sentinel's Peak. Off one of the cliffs, surrounded by vines and resting between two trees, players will discover this pillar. It is located above a Mongol camp and is easily accessed by climbing a cliff next to the camp.
Players who venture up here will receive the Immortal Hope sword kit. The design of this new sword kit appears to be entirely created from bamboo, and has a lovely pink fabric wrapped around the end.
Katayama Market Pillar Of Honor
Next up, this Pillar of Honor is located just south of Katayama Market along the western part of Zasho River. It is also south of the Cat Sanctuary in this area, right next to an archery challenge. Players can easily complete all three of these activities while in the area.
For venturing to this Pillar of Honor, players will receive the Stonecutter sword kit. This new sword kit appears to be crafted of solid granite with a purple sword that runs down the length of the katana sheath.
Saru Island Pillar Of Honor
The last Pillar of Honor is nearby some more activities for players to complete while in the area. Saru Island is in the southern section of Iki Island, and is in the area between Saruiwa Overlook and Saruiwa Mountain. Players will have to swim to get here, but it is worth it. There is a Bamboo Strike on this island, and there is a Monkey Sanctuary on both Saruiwa Overlook and Saruiwa.
Those who make this trip will receive the Nekoma's Fang sword kit. This sword kit is similar in appearance to the Stonecutter sword kit, but has scratch marks along the sheath along with gold accents.
