In Ghost of Tsushima, the main antagonist is Khotun Khan, who is portrayed as a Mongol general and the cousin of Kublai Khan (the grandson of Genghis Khan).
Here’s how it connects to religion and history:
☪️ Historically: During the 13th century (when the game takes place), the Mongol Empire was expanding rapidly across Asia. While some Mongols later converted to Islam, most Mongols during Kublai Khan’s time were not Muslim.
Kublai Khan himself followed Tengriism, a Mongol traditional belief system centered around the sky god Tengri, shamanism, and nature worship.
🎮 In the game:
Khotun Khan is depicted as a cunning strategist who uses psychological warfare and diplomacy. The game does not present him as Muslim — he behaves and speaks more like a traditional Mongol leader, referencing Mongol customs and philosophies rather than Islamic teachings.
