Ghost of Yotei Surpassed Ghost of Tsushima in First-Day Sales — Insider

Since its announcement, Ghost of Yotei has provoked strong reactions from both fans and critics. The game’s story and several statements from the developers sparked heated debate — yet new information now suggests Sucker Punch may have outdone itself.

According to recent reports, Ghost of Yotei sold more than one million copies within its first 24 hours, surpassing the launch figures for Ghost of Tsushima. Insider Millieamand reported sales of roughly 1.3 million units versus 1.25 million for the previous title. That’s an impressive achievement, especially considering the doubts voiced before release. It appears the studio has reason to celebrate another win.

The developers can also be pleased with the technical work. Ghost of Yotei is being praised for excellent optimization and visuals on the standard PS5 — visually nearly indistinguishable from the PS5 Pro build. A title that recently sparked controversy has quickly become one of the year’s top-selling and most warmly received releases. If the current momentum holds, the game could not only match Tsushima’s success but also become a new benchmark for Sony exclusives.
