Glitches in Ghost of Tsushima are pretty uncommon, but when they do crop up, they tend to be pretty entertaining. This time around a Redditor posted a short clip of a flying enemy coming back from hell – and it’s absolutely hilarious.
The bug was recorded and shared by user MrBlack87, whose post titled “Return of the Mongols” got almost 15 thousand upvotes on Reddit. The whole thing started as an ordinary fight in Ghost of Tsushima, with Jin Sakai opposing a single foe — just a local bandit from the way it looks. The action took place on the edge of a steep cliff, pretty much suitable for a leg kick. That’s what the player did, sending his screaming rival into a long flight down.
However, things escalated quickly. After reaching the ground, the poor guy didn’t die, but suddenly got thrown upwards, changing his scream sounds accordingly. The flying warrior flew up above Jin’s head, and landed right next to him, pretty much surviving the wild ride. But only when the bandit was back on his feet, he seemingly realized it was better to be gone and dropped dead. Note this elegant bow by Jin at the very end.

The footage gathered over 260 comments, including many joking replies. “There’s a trampoline down there. Still, the fall killed him by heart attack.” “Imagine if he got a flying attack on you when he jumped back. Would’ve been terrifying.” “Never realised Morioh and its Boing-Boing Cape were on Tsushima,” one Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure fan wrote.
