Each Stellar Blade and Dune: Awakening shot into Steam's high 100 with new concurrent participant peaks yesterday
The sexiest sport on the market broke a brand new concurrent participant file over the weekend. That is proper—Dune: Awakening broached the highest 100 most-played video games of all time on Steam, netting a peak concurrent participant depend of 189,333 gamers on-line on Sunday. That places it at a contented 85 on SteamDB’s chart of most-played video games, sandwiched between Soccer Supervisor 2020 (84) and the Enhanced Version of GTA 5 (86).
Simply edging it out, although, was Shift Up’s character motion sport Stellar Blade at place 81, between Complete Warfare: Three Kingdoms (80) and A Story About My Uncle (82), that are all just about the identical sport.
Despite the fact that our Mollie Taylor got here away a tad combined on the sport in her Stellar Blade assessment, it is gone over fairly properly with Steam customers. 192,078 of them poured into the sport on Sunday, whereas the sport itself has a 94% Very Optimistic score over within the Steam person critiques. I reckon it is due to the smut mods.
I, after all, predicted the Dune half of this in a narrative final week concerning the sport hitting 142k gamers on its first correct launch day. Am I some sort of seer? Or maybe a genius? Sure, but in addition just about everybody anticipated this. Final weekend was each Dune and Stellar Blade’s first one after their respective releases, so it solely is smart {that a} bunch of individuals fired them up whereas hanging out at residence on a break day.
It isn’t Stellar Blade’s solely win these previous few days. Earlier at this time, Shift Up took to social media to thank followers for 3 million copies offered, and it continues to carry robust at sixth place in Steam’s personal high sellers record. Dune: Awakening, in the meantime, is at primary. Presumably Dune’s denizens (dunezens) are having fun with themselves as a lot as PCG’s Chris Livingston in his Dune: Awakening review-in-progress.
