Singing Crickets are an interesting collectible in Ghost Of Tsushima. Each one can teach the player a different tune on their flute allowing them to change the weather with a song. It’s also important for a number of different trophies.
Finding them is relatively easy if the player’s character is wearing the Traveler’s Attire and has beaten the game. But for those wanting to find them before this moment, it’s important to know the general location of these musical crickets.
20 Golden Temple
This is the first Singing Cricket the player can locate in Act 1 of the game in the first region. This Cricket is in the northeast area of the Golden Summit Shrine at the Temple. They’re in the center of an area with stone lanterns and a group of Mongols.
19 Golden Forest
Directly north of the Golden Forest is an enemy camp just before reaching the main road in this area. Inside this camp are the crickets surrounded by stone lanterns.
18 Yoichi Crossroads
Near the crossroads east of Yoichi’s Slope is the next Singing Cricket. The enemy camp is just a little southeast of the crossroads, it’s located by the stone lanterns and some other decorations in the area.
17 Old Woodman’s Canopy
North of the Old Woodman’s Canopy is a small graveyard full of enemies. Once the enemies are dealt with the player will find the Singing Crickets nearby on the small ledge with some candles nearby.
16 Takuzudama Cemetery
Near the cemetery is a small open area with numerous candles. After defeating the enemies found at the cemetery the player will find the Singing Cricket by those candles.
15 Komatsu Forge Graveyard
Near the Komatsu Forge village is a small graveyard. After defeating the Mongols nearby, unless the player has accessed this area before completing the main quest Tales in which case it’ll be empty, the cage of Singing Crickets is found near one of the stone markers surrounded by candles.
14 Yagata Forest
Northeast of Yagata Forest and west of Kashine Forest is a small graveyard. The Singing Cricket will be located next to a large tree with burning incense.
13 Wolf Cub Falls
Southeast of the Wolf Cub Falls and northwest of Kashine Hills is the next Singing Cricket.
This one is in a graveyard on a road leading east of the water by Wolf Cub Falls. It’s found on a stone bench surrounded by candles.
12 Exile’s Bluff
Exile’s Bluff is the only nearby landmark and the Singing Crickets are located in a graveyard east of them. Within the graveyard the player can find thee Singing Cricket cage resting near some candles and smoking incense.
11 Azamo Bay
This is the last Singing Cricket cage the player can encounter in Act 1 in the Izuhara region. The player can still access this region in Act 2 but it pays to wrap things up before leaving. This cage is found northwest of the Azamo Bay just south of the main road. They’re found in a small graveyard surrounded by lit candles.
10 Old Clan’s Hill
These is the first Singing Cricket the player can encounter in the Toyotama region of Act 2. North of the Lonely Forest Clearing camp is Old Clan’s Hill. There is a cemetery on a large hill nearby that gives a great view of the valley. The Cricket cage is at the bottom of the cemetery with smoking incense nearby.
9 Urashima’s Village
Along the east coast is the Urashima Village. The Singing Cricket cage is in a graveyard by the village and south of the Cloud Ridge Shrine to the north. After clearing out enemies the player can find the Singing Cricket cage near a cluster of bamboo at the lowest point of the cemetery.
8 Turtle Rock
North of the Old Toyotama Hills is the Turtle Rock Shrine. The Singing Cricket cage is found up a set of steps leading to the Shrine. The player will likely find this Singing Cricket organically as the Art of Seeing quest requires the player go to this same spot.
7 Serene Forest
East of Omi Lake is a river leading to Serene Forest. In this forest is a cemetery overlooking the river tucked into the trees. The Singing Cricket is on a small ledge with a large stone lantern nearby. The player will likely find this one accidentally as well as the quest The Proud Do Not Endure sends them here.
6 Stairway Falls
Northwest of the Seren Forests and north east of Omi Lake is a small cemetery near the Stairway Falls. The Singing Cricket is in a cemetery on the right hand side of the road if the player is heading north of the Lake.
But the easiest way to find this is to complete the quest The Proud Do Not Endure as it’ll take the player to this cemetery.
5 Shimura Cemetery
The Shimura Cemetery is east of the Stairway Falls alongside the river. The Riverside Farm is next door making it easier to find. Once again the player visits this location while completing The Proud Do Not Endure quest. The Singing Cricket is surrounded by stone cairns.
4 Fort Koyasan
North of Little Monk’s Pond and east of the Shimura Cemetery is Fort Koyasan. South of the Fort is a round cemetery surrounded by red trees. The Singing Cricket is found near the rock wall within the cemetery. It’s also the last Singing Cricket that can be obtained in Act 2 before the player is locked into the Kamiagata region for Act 3.
3 Guardian’s Ridge
Act 3 has begun and the player is locked in the Kamiagata region until the player beats the game and regains access to the other regions. The first Singing Cricket in this area is at the Guardian’s Ridge cemetery southwest of the river fork and north above Kamiagata Falls.
2 Tsurara Otoshi Cliffs
North of Jogaku Temple Lake are the Tsurara Otoshi Cliffs. Following the curved road is a cemetery at the center of the bend. The Singing Cricket is near a lit lantern in the cemetery.
1 Mount Jogaku
Just north of Mount Jogaku is the Snowlit Peak Shinto Shrine. There’s a road that wanders through the mountains that leads to the Cricket. It’s near a broken section of a stone wall on a bench with candles nearby. This sis the last Singing Cricket the player can obtain in the game.
