We can see which games generated the most money on Sony’s network until June 2023, and also how many downloads the title in question generated. There’s a complete top list and some interesting results, no doubt about it.
On the ResetEra forum, a user called Red Kong XIX leaked which game had sold the most copies up to June last year. Not a big surprise, so we’ll write it down: it was Marvel’s Spider-Man from Insomniac Games (nearly $316 million, almost 8.5 million downloads). We’ll just write down the top 20 out of over 580:

- MLB The Show 22 (April 2022) – $64,460,823 – 1,144,730 downloads
So there are two baseball games in the top 20, but apart from those, Spider-Man, God of War, The Last of Us and Horizon are mostly in the top half of the list, with Gran Turismo and Uncharted in the middle. Days Gone generated $100 million on the PlayStation Network alone, and that’s not blockbuster enough for Sony? Bloodborne’s result (and Death Stranding’s) is a bit surprising, and Ratchet & Clank didn’t do very well…
