The previous record for a new IP on PS4 was set by Horizon Zero Dawn , with 2.6 million but in a longer time, that is, two weeks.
These are the absolute speed records on PlayStation 4, as reported on the forum ResetEra:
- The Last of Us Part II: 4M in three days
- Spider-Man: 3.3M in three days
- God of War: 3.1M in three days
- Ghost of Tsushima: 2.4M in three days
- Uncharted 4: 2.7M in one week
- Horizon Zero Dawn: 2.6M in two weeks
- inFamous SS: 1M in nine days
- Bloodborne: 1M in twelve days
- Detroit Become Human: 1M in two weeks
Absolutely, therefore counting new and old IP, the speed record on PS4 belongs to The Last of Us Part II of Naughty Dog.
However a remarkable result for Ghost of Tsushima , of which we have highlighted the most impressive aspects including the sumptuous photo mode, which would deserve a separate game for how deep it is.
