Ghost of Tsushima Iron farm and collecting is useful for those looking to upgrade their weapons and deal more damage.

As with many open-world games, gathering resources and improving your gear is a critical part of the gameplay. Iron and steel are the primary resources for this in Tsushima. During your adventure, driving back Mongol invaders and liberating towns all over the map, you may want to keep your eyes peeled for stray metals to keep your sword sharp. Fortunately, there are a few ways to accomplish this.

Here's how to farm for iron and steel in Sucker Punch's Ghost of Tsushima.

Ghost of Tsushima Iron Farming: How to Farm

Unfortunately, there isn't a surefire way to farm unlimited iron and steel for your own purposes. These two resources can usually be found in towns or are gifted as rewards for your service. Simply put: you won't be able to park Jin in a single town and go to work.

The two best ways to gather iron and steel are finishing quests on the island of Tsushima—liberating towns and restoring your home—and hanging around forges. Your best bets for collecting metal are exploration and careful search of would-be hotspots.

Ghost of Tsushima is available exclusively for the PlayStation 4.
