Ghost of Tsushima Beats Kratos and Becomes Sony's Biggest Singleplayer Game on PC
PC gamers have fallen in love with Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut. The game managed to beat the activity scores of both Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered and God of War on Steam. Thus, Jin Sakai's story became Sony's most popular single-player title.
Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut made a big entrance on PC last week, marking the conversion of one of the top exclusives from PlayStation consoles. Just a dozen or so hours after the premiere, it became obvious that the PC edition would be a big hit. Now, following the weekend, the magnitude of this success has exceeded all other Sony conversions.
Yesterday, the game set a new activity record. At the hottest moment on Sunday, 77,154 people were playing Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut on PC at the same time.
- This is the highest score of all PlayStation conversions released by Sony. This is also the highest record in the company's single-player games. Therefore, Sucker Punch Studios' samurai epic successfully surpassed the previous leader in this category, which was God of War.
- The only title that can boast a higher score is Helldivers 2, but it is a multiplayer game and it was released simultaneously on PC and PS5, not - like the other titles - ported to PCs a long time after the console premiere.
It's also worth mentioning that the game is highly regarded. 88% of Ghost of Tsushima reviews on Steam are positive, and many players praise the title for how well it works on their PCs.

The success of Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut is actually quite surprising. Both God of War and Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered are more prominent brands and sold better on PlayStation 4 than Sucker Punch's samurai game. Nevertheless, the preferences of PC gamers seem to be slightly different from those of their console-playing colleagues.
