I've seen this issue occur in a number of games, but never to this degree. Usually in games like Ratchet: Deadlocked or Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, this issue can be corrected by playing around with the GS Hardware Hacks and enacting a Sprite Merge with a Half-Pixel Offset or something similar.
That said, those games usually only have a single artifact where the image separates/ghosts. As you can see from my screenshot, the image splits into 3 ghosts regardless of any movement. There are actually 4 ghosts, but the Half-Pixel Offset: Normal (Vertex) aligns 1 ghost with the rest of the image, so it only looks like 3. As others have tried, Sprite Merge/Align and Auto Flush do nothing to mitigate the other 3 ghosts.
Here are other scenarios I've tested which replicate the same issue:

Here are other scenarios I've tested which replicate the same issue:
- Latest PCSX2 x32 Stable or x64 Nightly
- Render API agnostic (D3D11/12, OpenGL, Vulkan or Software)
- Cheats or no cheats
- Render resolution/ratio agnostic (From PS2 Native 480 4:3 to 6x 2160 16:9)
- A myriad of different configs I've not taken the time to properly document
