Even before its release, Ghost of Yotei became a PR nightmare for PlayStation. Now fans are wondering how this affected the sales of the new Sony exclusive.
There is no answer yet - the company does not publish data, which may indicate that the project has not reached a million copies sold, or the company is waiting for higher figures.
There are rumors of "impressive results", but this is only unconfirmed information from anonymous sources on social networks. From the verified data, it is only known that in the UK, Ghost of Yotei sold 40% worse on the day of release than Ghost of Tsushima. At the same time, we are only talking about physical copies - a format that is losing popularity against the background of digital sales.
According to Twitchtracker, interest in the game is rapidly declining. Ghost of Yotei is currently ranked 14th among the most popular games on Twitch. Since October 2, the number of viewers has decreased from 111 thousand to about 20 thousand per day. For comparison, the game is ahead of Megabonk, which gathers about 90 thousand viewers daily.
Ghost of Yotei already has 24 thousand reviews in the PS Store with an average rating of 4.84 out of 5. For comparison, Ghost of Tsushima has over 272 thousand ratings.
After the scandals surrounding the developers, many players promised to boycott the release. Whether this affects sales remains to be seen. Official data from Sony is not yet available.
