I'm glad to report that Ghost of Tsushima has sold a million copies in Japan, as reported by PlayStation of Japan on Twitter.
This is notable for several reasons. For one, it's the first game from the 2020's to make the list. For another, this seems to be the biggest Sony-published game in Japan since Minecraft on the Vita in 2015. As far as first party games go, no other Sony game has broken a million sales in Japan since Gran Turismo 4 back on the PS2 in 2004.
I'm going to revisit this thread and update it soon, but am just waiting for a few things to be updated. That said, if you have any suggestions for this thread, let me know!
EDIT: Now updated with data up to April 16. Little changed besides updated figures for Minecraft on the Switch. Note that the various Minecraft skus combined have outsold New Super Mario Bros (DS).
