Ghost of Tsushima Hits 8 Million Sales

One of the anticipated releases of 2020, PlayStation-exclusive samurai action-adventure game Ghost of Tsushima from developer Sucker Punch and publisher Sony Interactive Entertainment has been a very impressive commercial success.

Up until now, Sucker Punch Productions have shared sales numbers for Tsushima only a couple of times and following release of a Director's Cut last year, Ghost of Tsushima hits a huge sales milestone of shipping more than 8 million copies.

Newly revealed sales figure shows a striking increase of over 1.5 million copies since an update back in March 2021. Majority of this number can be attributed to Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut, which arrived for PlayStation 4 and 5 earlier.

Ghost of Tsushima reaching such a great milestone makes it among one of the most successful original game releases by PlayStation that includes Horizon Zero Dawn and God of War (2018), selling over 10 and 20 million copies respectively.

Celebrating latest success across social media, Sucker Punch thanks all Ghost of Tsushima fans for support.

We're thrilled and amazed that #GhostOfTsushima has officially sold more than 8 million copies!

Sucker Punch Productions' latest original IP sells over 2.4 million copies within three days of its release. Guerrilla Games' 2017 action role-playing game Horizon Zero Dawn previously sold 2.6 million copies in two weeks after global release.

Ghost of Tsushima opening week sales only matched with a record set by Naughty Dog's 2020 action-adventure game The Last of Us Part II, which sold more than 4 million copies worldwide in just three days after launch on Sony consoles.
