Ghost of Tsushima’s PC release is a success after becoming the biggest single-player PlayStation game launch on Steam.
According to official numbers provided by Valve, Ghost of Tsushima reached a peak concurrent player count of 77,154 on Sunday, May 19. God of War’s all-time peak is 73,529, reached when Sony’s action adventure Santa Monica arrived on Steam two years ago.
Of course, Arrowhead’s co-op shooter Helldivers 2 remains Sony’s biggest game on PC, and even the best-selling PlayStation game of all time after selling an incredible 12 million copies on PS5 and Steam in just 12 weeks, but Sony is sure of it. be excited for the PC launch of Ghost of Tsushima single-player mode, which first launched on PlayStation 4 in July 2020.
The success of Ghost of Tsushima on PC comes despite Sony’s policy requiring a PlayStation Network account for online multiplayer and the PlayStation overlay. This means that Ghost of Tsushima on PC is not sold in countries where PlayStation Network is not available.
Sony executives have indicated that PC is key to the success and continued growth of the PlayStation business. Sony purchased PC port specialist Nixxes Software in 2021, and it was Nixxes who handled the well-received PC port of Ghost of Tsushima. In a tweet, Ghost of Tsushima developer Sucker Punch thanks Nixxes for “their exceptional work” on the port. “Your technical expertise was invaluable in making our very first PC version a reality,” the studio continued. “We couldn’t have asked for a better partner.”
Of course, given the success of Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, and Spider-Man on PC, many are wondering which high-profile PlayStation exclusive will get the port treatment next. According to a recent report, God of War: Ragnarok is the next PlayStation exclusive launching on PC. Bloodborne fans continue to live in hope.
