Game director Nate Fox and Creative director Jason Connell will become permanent ambassadors of the city of Tsushima in Nagasaki, the island announced this week.
The ceremony will be held digitally due to travel restrictions, and the pair will be presented with the award and a letter of appreciation.
In a statement, Tsushima mayor Hiroki Hitakatsu explained why the pair have been awarded with the honour.
“[Fox and Connell] spread the name and history of Tsushima to the whole world in such a wonderful way,” he said.
“Even a lot of Japanese people do not know the history of the Gen-ko period. When it comes to the world, the name and location of Tsushima is literally unknown, so I cannot thank them enough for telling our story with such phenomenal graphics and profound stories.”
