Age of Empires 4 is obviously a hit in the black and it is exactly the title that players have been anxiously waiting for. This is evidenced by the latest Steam statistics, where just a day after the release of the new strategy is enjoying unprecedented popularity.
Age of Empires 4 you according to steamdb.info 57,345 players played simultaneously on Friday, while similar numbers were recorded on Thursday. Thus, this real-time strategy jumped to the very top of the ranking of the most popular games from the last week.
It is also the absolute pinnacle in the entire history of this series, which has so far held Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition (38,725 concurrent players). Even the famous Rainbow Six Siege and Rocket League titles were surpassed in one moment.
However, these numbers do not include Age of Empires 4 players who enjoyed the title as part of the Xbox Game Pass for PC. And there certainly won’t be many of them either. As a result, the total numbers will be significantly higher.
