It’s already a win for Sony: just days after pre-orders went live, Ghost of Yotei has become the top-selling title on the PlayStation Store in 20 countries. From Europe to the U.S. and across parts of Asia, the new Sucker Punch game is leading the pre-order charts worldwide.

Ghost of Tsushima left a powerful legacy with its blend of fluid combat, rich storytelling, and breathtaking open-world exploration on a Japanese island. Now, Sucker Punch is aiming to top that with Ghost of Yotei, a much more ambitious journey that promises to raise the bar. And even before release, this new game has already become a global sensation, drawing massive attention everywhere.

According to user Zuby_Tech, Ghost of Yotei has surged to the top of the PlayStation Store’s pre-order rankings in 20 countries. Just days ago, Sony officially announced the game’s release date—October 2, 2025—alongside a new trailer. The pre-orders for Sucker Punch’s new open-world title began on May 2.

From North America to Europe and Asia, Yotei has rocketed to the top in only a few days. In Europe alone, it’s the most pre-ordered game on the PlayStation Store in the U.K., Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Belgium, and the Netherlands. This isn’t a fluke: Sucker Punch already showed their mastery of immersive design and compelling gameplay with Ghost of Tsushima, and Ghost of Yotei looks poised to repeat that success on a global scale.

Sony has already secured a massive lead. With just a few days of availability, Ghost of Yotei leads pre-order charts in 20 different regions around the world.
