\"Ghost<\/a><\/p>\n

Ghost of Yotei<\/a> has crushed any lingering social media narratives, selling 3.2 million units as of 2nd November<\/a>. That\u2019s the total number of copies sold through to consumers, and spans the full 32 days since the game\u2019s release.<\/p>\n

By comparison, Ghost of Tsushima<\/a> sold 2.4 million units in three days, and crossed five million units in four months.<\/p>\n

However, it\u2019s important to incorporate some context here: Sucker Punch\u2019s predecessor was sold during the height of lockdown on a more mature PS4 platform with a much bigger install base. It was also a cheaper game overall.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s fair to say Ghost of Yotei is selling very well, then, putting an end to any online speculation about the game underperforming.<\/p>\n

Since its announcement, the sequel has been attacked by some vocal corners of the Internet for its choice of protagonist. Sucker Punch also coveted some criticism<\/a> for its handling of a staff member who commented on the assassination of Charlie Kirk.<\/p>\n

But these statistics show all of that was just noise, and by and large, gamers are supporting the game.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s good, because we think it\u2019s a robust improvement on its predecessor, and a welcome addition to the PS5\u2019s catalogue.<\/p>\n
