Sony’s final big game for its current-generation console PS4, Ghost of Tsushima, sold more than five million copies worldwide. Tsushima came out for the PS4 on July 17, 2020.
The news comes from an informative piece by Seth Schiesel for The New York Times. He writes, “Sony attributes much of its success over the last console generation to the popularity of its exclusive game franchises, including stalwarts like God of War (more than 51 million copies sold) and newcomers like Ghost of Tsushima, with more than five million copies sold since its debut in July.”
Schiesel confirmed that those figures came directly from Sony. In a tweet, he confirms –
Yes they did, and I believe the 5 million figure for Ghost of Tsushima had not been reported previously.
