Samurai Dough-down
Sony Interactive Entertainment has announced that its dramatic samurai epic Ghost of Tsushima sold 2.4 million copies within its first three days of release. This figure sets a new record, and makes Sucker Punch’s open-world title the fastest-selling, first-party, original IP on PS4.
Originally released on July 17, Ghost of Tsushima tells an evocative and violent tale of Jin Sakai, one of the last surviving members of his samurai clan, who faces down the Mongol army and its General, Khotun Khan, who have laid waste to the Japanese island of Tsushima. Players guide Jin on his against-the-odds journey, equipped with masterful swordsmanship and helped by the few unlikely allies that remain in the war-torn land.
