Baldur´s Gate III - 875,343 all-time peak (over 50k are playing it right now)
Elden Ring - 953,426 all-time peak
Hogwarts Legacy - 879,308 all-time peak
Cyberpunk 2077 - 1,054,388 all-time peak

Starfield did not do so well and was very poorly recieved on steam, lets see its numbers.

Starfield - 330,723 all-time peak


As you might notice, there is a long way up to the popular successful titles. Even a disappointment like Starfield is far up there.


Dragon Age: The Veilguard - 14,193 all-time peak
But this will be higher in the coming hours. Will it be 200k? I doubt it.. but we never know, will it be 800k? if it was, I would make a tribute thread to BioWare and praise them for alienating me as a target audience.

You must have high expectations if you are putting DA in the same bucket as the names above.

I think DA will do fine but not BG3 numbers that would be insane. That game was a genre defining game, there is a HUGE distance between that game and failure or flop and if I recall the talk of this game was flop!

I mean putting a 2 million figure for steam is shows you NEVER thought it would flop.

8000 is a lot considering everyone on steam just got access 1h ago. My download says it will take like 12h lol

It's all currently completely irrelevant. Only count that matters is the weekend and people playing past two hour combined with the weekend after.

If this Saturday has 350k and the next has 20k, then that's worse than it never reaching 50k at all, as refunds cost money.

Epic fail, this should be at 150k if it was liked by peeps around the world... it was at 18k and now going down...

150k on an 80 GB game with no preload less than an hour after release when most are still working?

Use your brain.

Sure, it's probably download, that's why so few are playing this game...
I'll wait and my popcorn is ready.

yeah some still downloading so i do suggest checking tommorrow morning and tommorow night too that when a full day pass so we would have a more accurate number of how much people play this crap ( and how much eventually refunded even if they added at the total cap number)

No it needs to be in the 1 mill range for a minimum cause they need to move 5 million units to break even for a 10 year development costs.

Less than 100k is a massive failure for a Dragon Age game.
