Exploring the gorgeous island of Tsushima in Sucker Punch’s hit open-world game reveals numerous breathtaking vistas and hidden secrets waiting to be uncovered. Among the most iconic landmarks scattered across the coastal cliffs are the ancient lighthouses, which serve as symbols of hope and resistance for the local people. Igniting these structures rewards players with legend increases and clears the fog of war from surrounding regions.
Lighthouses of the Izuhara Region
The journey begins in the southern portion of the island, where players can find the first set of navigational beacons. The Tsutsu Lighthouse is situated on the southwestern coast, overlooking rocky shores plagued by Mongol fleets. Travelers must scale its wooden scaffolding to reach the brazier at the very top.
Further to the east lies the Ariake Lighthouse, positioned gracefully near the winding rivers and forest borders. Rekindling this specific flame provides a sense of peace to the local refugees who hide in nearby camps. The final beacon in this initial zone is the Komatsu Lighthouse, which requires navigating past active enemy patrols guarding the nearby forge village.
Beacons Across the Toyotama Territory
Moving into the central region of the island introduces a shift in the landscape and more heavily fortified coastal points. The Akashima Lighthouse stands prominently near the misty marshlands, offering a guiding light through the treacherous coastal fog. Reaching it requires a brief climb, but the panoramic view of the surrounding wetlands makes the effort incredibly worthwhile.
Further up the eastern coastline, players will encounter the Kubara Lighthouse positioned on an elevated cliffside. This spot provides a strategic view of incoming Mongol vessels attempting to reinforce their mainland strongholds. Igniting these structures systematically helps reclaim the territory while building your reputation as a legendary warrior across the region.
The Final Beacons of Kamiagata
The northernmost snow-covered territory contains the final lighthouses needed to complete your island-wide map journey. The Jogaku Lighthouse is nestled in the frozen north, surrounded by harsh winter blizzards and elite enemy encampments. Reaching this spot requires careful navigation through deep snowdrifts and mountainous terrain.
The Kin Lighthouse concludes the mainland collection, positioned on a desolate cliffside facing the open sea. Activating this final fire symbol completes the network of coastal defenses and restores a unified sense of hope to the surviving citizens. Completing this lengthy exploration task rewards dedicated players with unique cosmetic upgrades and the Light the Way achievement.
