4 regions
Iki Island is the separate island southeast of Tsushima where the Iki Island expansion takes place. The Eagle Tribe under Ankhsar Khatun has taken it over, and Jin must face both the Mongols and his father's history there.
Izuhara is the southern region of Tsushima and the first one you explore in Act 1. It is where you rescue Lord Shimura from Castle Kaneda, meet most of your allies and learn the stealth tools that turn Jin into the Ghost.
Kamiagata is the snowy northern region of Tsushima and the setting for Act 3. It is thinly settled and harsh, and it is where you chase Khotun Khan to his final stronghold at Port Izumi.
Toyotama is the central region of Tsushima, between Izuhara and Kamiagata. Act 2 plays out here: you rally allies, liberate Yarikawa and march on Castle Shimura, while side tales for Norio, Yuna and Yuriko open up.
