How to sheath your sword in Ghost of Tsushima

Being a stealthy Samurai in Feudal Japan in Ghost of Tsushima, you can’t flaunt your mighty blade and run amok in the streets, so learning how to sheath your sword is important.

While it doesn’t give you any gameplay advantage, it feels great to sheath your sword in Ghost of Tsushima. Usually, sheathing your sword involves Jin Sakai putting his sword in the scabbard. However, it is even better when you’ve defeated many enemies; Jin wipes the blood off his sword and keeps it away, making you feel like the impressive Samurai who does this daily for a living. 

Here’s everything you need to know about sheathing your sword in Ghost of Tsushima.
