Ghost of Tsushima Lighthouses are hidden landmarks that must be discovered while exploring the Island of Tsushima, and they are very important because they improve Jin’s notoriety among the locals. Or simply put, they increase Jin’s level, which, at the end of the day, allows you to unlock new Technique Points.
Each time you find a Lighthouse in Ghost of Tsushima, you must reignite it. Usually, the locations of these lighthouses are overrun by Mongols, which means that they are similar to the Occupied Areas. Keep in mind that there are 8 Lighthouses in the video game, and you’ll need to find all of them in order to unlock the Light the Way Trophy.
Once you find one of these buildings, first, you’ll need to get rid of all enemies. Then, you’ll need to find the actual lighthouse building and use the ladder inside to go up. Finally, place Jin in front of the burning brazier and press R2 on your controller to ignite the lighthouse fire.
To find these Ghost of Tsushima landmarks, you have three options. The first one is through exploration, and it requires your attention to the environment. Alternatively, you can use the maps below and visit these locations conquered by the Mongols without wasting time. The third is to beat the story and then clear all Mongol Territories.
Once you do that, most of the locations will appear on your map marked by question marks. By visiting them, you will see what each location is hiding. It is worth remembering that there are collectibles that can’t be found by visiting the question marks—for example, the Singing Crickets and the Hidden Altars.
If you wish to see how many Lighthouses you have found (track your progress), open the game’s menu and press L1/R1 to access the Collections tab. Next, go to the Exploration sub-tab and look for the Lighthouses window. In the upper left corner, you can see the total number of Lighthouses in the game and the number of fires you have ignited.
Izuhara Lighthouse Locations
The first 3 Lighthouses in Ghost of Tsushima are found in Izuhara Region.
Tsutsu Lighthouse
The Ghost of Tsushima Tsutsu Lighthouse is unlocked while playing The Tale of Ryuzo main tale. It is located southwest of Komatsu Forge and west of Fallen Outpost. You can’t miss its location because you’ll have to disable the alarm inside while playing the said tale.
Ariake Lighthouse
On the eastern coast, southeast of Yoichi’s Crossroads and Hiyoshi Springs is Ariake Lighthouse. Once you clear it, go inside, climb the ladder, and light it up.
Komoda Lighthouse
The third Ghost of Tsushima Lighthouse in Izuhara is Komoda Lighthouse. It is found in the northwestern corner of the region, northwest of Furuta Village and Komoda Town. Climb on top of the building again and light the brazier.
Toyotama Lighthouse Locations
Three additional Ghost of Tsushima Lighthouses can be found in Toyotama Region.
Akashima Lighthouse
The first one is Akashima Lighthouse, which, just like Tsutsu Lighthouse, is unlocked while playing a story mission. It is called A New Horizon, and it takes place during the second act of the video game. Akashima Lighthouse is found north of Fort Ito in the southernmost part of Toyotama.
Kubara Lighthouse
Next, you’ll have to find Kubara Lighthouse on the eastern shore of the Toyotama Region. It is guarded by a Mongol Camp named Secluded Lighthouse, northeast of Koshimizu Farmstead. After you clear all Mongols, follow the ladder up to light the brazier on top.
Sago Lighthouse
On the western shore, northwest of Omi Village, we have Sago Lighthouse. You already know the drill by now, so clear the Mongols, then go up the ladder and light up the brazier.
Kamiagata Lighthouse Locations
The last two Ghost of Tsushima Lighthouses can be found in Kamiagata Region.
Kin Lighthouse
First, we have the Kin Lighthouse on the eastern shore of Kamiagata, just east of Twilight’s Edge Overlook. Head up the stairs, light the brazier, and you’re done.
Jogaku Lighthouse
And finally, Jogaku Lighthouse is located also on the eastern shore but in the northern part of the region. Look for it, just east of Izumi Village. Keep in mind that some players reported that the Ghost of Tsushima Jogaku Lighthouse is bugged, so you may want to save your game before lighting the brazier on top of it. If the Light the Way Trophy doesn’t pop, reload the game.
