PlayStation Japan has advised customers to buy the digital version of Ghost of Tsushima, due to the physical version selling out in stores.
A tweet (https://twitter.com/PlayStation_jp/status/1285801898054844416) from the official PlayStation Japan account said that Sucker Punch Productions' exclusive title has exceeded Sony's expectations in terms of its popularity.
Enough stores have run out of stock that PlayStation Japan is advising interested customers to purchase the download version instead, or wait for more physical copies to be manufactured.
Ghost of Tsushima has been very well received by critics in Japan. Indeed, as Push Square reported (https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/07/ghost_of_tsushima_is_the_third_western_game_to_ear n_a_famitsu_perfect_score), it is only the third game made by a Western studio to receive a perfect score from Famitsu.
The other two games are The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim and Grand Theft Auto 5, which puts Sucker Punch's game in distinguished company. It is also the first original IP from a Western studio to achieve a rating of 40 out of 40.
