Released on October 2, 2025, Ghost of Yotei sold 3.3 million units within the first 32 days. During a recent financial report, Sony's CFO stated that Ghost of Yotei significantly impacted the company's financial results. Comparatively, Ghost of Tsushima sold 2.4 million copies in its first three days and reached 5 million after just over four months. While Ghost of Yotei launched at a higher price point of $70, Ghost of Tsushima was priced at $60 during its initial release. The upcoming multiplayer add-on, Ghost of Yotei: Legends, is expected to boost sales further. Additionally, like its predecessor, Ghost of Yotei is anticipated to debut on PC in a Director's Cut edition.

What makes Ghost of Yotei different from Ghost of Tsushima?

Ghost of Yotei features an expanded world, enhanced gameplay mechanics, and new story elements that build upon the foundation laid by Ghost of Tsushima. Its unique selling points include deeper character development and new combat techniques, making it stand out as a sequel while maintaining the beloved elements of its predecessor.

Ghost of Tsushima, launched in July 2020, was critically acclaimed for its stunning visuals and immersive storytelling, quickly becoming a best-seller with a total of 13 million copies sold, which includes sales from the subsequent PS5 and PC versions. The game's success can be attributed to its release during a time of increased gaming activity, and it set a high standard that Ghost of Yotei aimed to surpass.
