Sony’s yet to comment on The Last of Us: Part II’s sales just yet, but it looks like it’s setting records around the world. In the UK, it’s become the fastest-selling PlayStation 4 release of all-time for Sony, and over in Germany it’s enjoyed the best launch of 2020 so far. The title has actually occupied the top two spots in the region’s physical sales charts, for both the standard and special editions. Remember, none of this factors in digital data just yet, which is sure to be high given the coronavirus pandemic.
The title’s also broken records in Russia, where it’s become the biggest launch in PS3 and PS4 history, outpacing even Grand Theft Auto V over a three-day period. It’s achieved similar success in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, where it’s become the fastest-selling PS4 exclusive to date. Expect mind-boggling statistics to be released by Sony in the coming days, as it’s going to want to beat its chest about this one.

And it deserves it ! One of the best games I ever played !!
@Hobbesyall Yep!
25 hours in and I've not been this hooked on a game for years and its certainly one of the best games I've played this generation
I do feel some of these comment sections are a bit like throwing a brick through a window and waiting for the infected to come running 😅
@get2sammyb "Sony’s yet to comment on The Last of Us: Part II’s sales just yet"
You may wanna edit this part.
I lost about 3 hours playing last night and it felt like half an hour, well deserved that it's doing well. Still on the look out for bad writing and plot holes 😂
@naruball Can you link me? I must have missed something?
@get2sammyb yet?
Congrats to ND, I hope the game will receive 4K & 60 fps patch for ps5. Just got to chapter 9 and I really enjoyed my time there, exploring the environment and getting collectible card. There's something weird about that dr.uckmann card lol.
Well, congrats to Naughty Dog and Sony. I’ve only played around 8 hours, but so far so awesome. I’ve not watched them, but I get quite a few vids come up in my YouTube feed with negative titles along the lines of ‘rant: everyone hates The Last Of Us Part 2’, that general sort of vibe.
Well, evidently not, it would seem 🧐
@wiiware I liked it, it rings true now. He must have been ready for all this hate lol. So was Gross, she has a villain card too.
If you could stop using my profile pic <3
Seriously the game is so so good that now after finishing it anything I play feels like it's crap...
@carlos82 I love how on edge that decision makes you feel when you need an entrance to loot a store.
@jacobia I always funny when people put such things. Words you should never use, always, everyone, never and a few others. Hey man “Don’t lump me in with everyone”, I love the last of us part 2 and so do a few of my coworkers. Others hate it, so can’t win all the time.
@sawaoyamanaka The game is about hate afterall, I hope I can find gross card too lol.
Biggest physical launch here in Germany? Sehr gut! I’ll have a Bier to celebrate!
@get2sammyb Kudos to the picture on the article much like the one for the Xbox article (Kratos smiling) made me chuckle
I finished it 2 days ago. A bold direction and definitely not for everyone. With the games length I don't expect many people to ever see the ending.
A technical marvel idd but I missed the emotional impact the first parts ending had. But I did sqeaze out a tear in the museum chapter
But after all a great game idd.
About 9 hours in now. Had a super ***** week but this game did somewhat help. So far it's been a really impressive experience, can't wait to play some more tonight!
Not surprised.
It really does not matter if I like her or not. The Woods and bare knuckle fight with crazy hammer lady was tons of fun.
This game is amazing. One thing flows to the next and keeps everything moving with such little effort.
