Side Quests: Exploring Tsushima Island

Okay, so the main story is awesome, but don't sleep on the side quests! They're where you'll find some of the best storytelling, unique characters, and some seriously cool rewards. These side quests, or Tales of Tsushima, are scattered throughout the island. They're usually marked on your map with a character icon. These quests help flesh out the world and give you a deeper connection to the people and places of Tsushima. The order you do them in doesn't really matter, but I recommend checking out the areas you explore in the main story first. That way, you won't miss any of the cool quests in each region. Each area has its own set of Tales to discover, so as you progress, make sure to explore thoroughly. It is important to know that most side quests have a recommended level. So, be careful when you go to other areas too early in the game.
