Part 3/9:
One of the most striking revelations is how Ghost of Tsushima is experiencing severe shortages in multiple regions, contrary to initial expectations by Sony. Official statements from PlayStation Japan acknowledged that the game has exceeded sales expectations, leading to stock shortages at various stores. PlayStation Japan even tweeted that additional production is underway to address the demand, and digital versions remain available via the PlayStation Store.
This fervor is echoed on a global scale. Major online retailers such as Amazon US and Canada report sold-out copies of Ghost of Tsushima. Shipping estimates suggest that customers may face waits of up to one to four weeks for physical copies, with digital sales also likely boosted by the scarcity of physical editions.
