Alright, so the news dropped about Ghost of Tsushima finally hitting PC. Gotta say, I was pretty excited. Played it on console way back, but the idea of playing it on my PC setup? Yes please.
First thing that popped into my head was, “Okay, when exactly does it unlock?”. You know how these things go, sometimes it’s midnight somewhere specific, sometimes it’s a global time. I needed to know.
So, I started digging around. Just did some basic searching online, you know, typing things like “Ghost of Tsushima PC release time” and stuff like that. Found the official date and time pretty quickly. It was set, locked in.
Then I thought, wouldn’t it be cool to have a countdown? Like, something I can just glance at and see exactly how much longer I gotta wait. Felt like a fun little thing to do while waiting.
Setting Up the Countdown
My first idea was simple. Just find a website that already had a countdown timer running for it. Figured that’d be the easiest route.
- I searched again, this time for “Ghost of Tsushima PC countdown timer”.
- Sure enough, a few websites popped up dedicated to game release countdowns.
- Clicked through a couple of them. Some were cluttered with ads, others looked a bit sketchy.
- Found one that was pretty clean, just showed the days, hours, minutes, and seconds left. Perfect.
I didn’t need anything fancy. No bells or whistles. Just the numbers ticking down.
My process was pretty straightforward:
I bookmarked that specific countdown page in my browser. For the first few days, I’d just open the bookmark whenever I thought about it. See the days drop off.
Then, I decided to just keep that tab open. Pinned it, actually. So every time I opened my browser, boom, there it was. Jin Sakai’s face (well, usually the game’s logo or art) next to the ticking clock.
Honestly, watching the numbers go down day by day, then hour by hour, it kinda built the anticipation even more. Silly, maybe, but it worked for me. It was like a little ritual, checking the timer, thinking about finally playing it on PC.
So yeah, that was my little project. Nothing complicated. Just found a tool somebody else made online and used it to keep track. Now, just watching those final hours tick away.
