Climbing the charts of the busiest games on Steam, especially from the number of concurrent players, is not something that is easy to do. This is usually only achieved by games that meet one of at least two of these conditions: distributed in a free-to-play format or that come with a solid online multiplayer experience, or a combination of both! Seeing a single-player game being able to dominate this ladder is a rare sight, especially if the game has a niche market. But this amazing thing has just happened with the game From Software – Elden Ring.
That’s right, a single-player game with a high level of difficulty that makes the market considered a niche has ended up being super popular on Steam. How popular? As popular as he was, he was able to top the Steam game chart with up to 764,835 users! He immediately made popular multiplayer games like Lost Ark, CS: GO, and DOTA 2 kicked to a lower position than usual. For a game that reportedly doesn’t perform too optimally on PC, this is of course a truly extraordinary achievement.
Elden Ring itself also managed to get a flood of super positive reviews with high scores from various gaming media and users. How about you? Have you tasted this RPG action game?
