- Terrific article, congratulations! Promoted to GA within a week of nomination, so new enough and long enough. Extensively cited using reliable sources, neutrally phrased, no copyvio detected. Hook is cited and compelling. QPQ done. Approved for DYK, but can I suggest rephrasing the sentence slightly for concision?

- GA not withstanding, pushsquare.com doesn't seem like a WP:RS to me. In fact, they cite https://blog.playstation.com/2020/07/16/ghost-of-tsushima-the-road-to-launch/ as their source, and that's certainly not a RS; it's a blog post by the founder of the company that made this game. -- RoySmith (talk) 02:42, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
- Hi. Push Square is a reliable source per WP:VG/RS. PlayStation Blog is a primary source. OceanHok (talk) 11:23, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
- Premeditated Chaos it sounds like you know more about gaming sources than I do; could I ask you to opine here? -- RoySmith (talk) 13:56, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
- WP:VGRS lists Push Square as reliable; there's no reason to think it isn't, the WikiProject is fairly fussy about what they greenlight there. Additionally, primary sources aren't unreliable by default, as long as we're using them in accordance with WP:PRIMARY. In this case, Push Square is quoting what the devs said about the development of the game - why would we consider their own description of their own creative process to be unreliable? ♠PMC♠ (talk) 14:06, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
