The Last of Us Part 2 Is Sony's Fastest-Selling Boxed PS4 Game in the UK

The Last of Us Part 2 is Sony's fastest-selling boxed PS4 game in the UK, and the biggest UK boxed launch of 2020. According to GamesIndustry.Biz, Naughty Dog's gritty sequel has beaten the previous record-holder Uncharted 4 by 1%, making it the fastest-selling PS4 game of the current generation in the UK. The UK sales charts do not include digital sales and, given the growth in digital sales in recent years, potentially means it's broken Sony's overall UK records too. The Last of Us Part 2's boxed launch sales are also "76% higher" than 2013's The Last of Us. Lots of Naughty Dog records broken by... Naughty Dog.
