Elden Ring has been out less than 24 hours, but it’s already blowing through records set by previous FromSoftware titles on Steam and Twitch.
A report by Kotaku notes that Elden Ring is, well, kind of a big deal! You might have already figured that by the extensive walkthrough and helpful write-ups GLHF has shared over the past couple of days. Anyways, let’s take a look at some good old-fashioned stats.
FromSoftware Peak Concurrent Players
We’ll list and order the peak concurrent player counts on Steam as of the time of this post below. All statistical data comes from SteamDB.
- Elden Ring – 764,835
- Dark Souls 3 – 129,975
- Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice – 125,325
- Dark Souls 2 – 79,528
- Dark Souls Remastered – 24,501
- Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin – 12,106
- Dark Souls Prepare to Die Edition – 11,259
The numbers paint a clear picture that Elden Ring is significantly more popular than FromSoftware’s other games on Steam.
Though shattered, it shall guide thee. Though fractured, it yet calls. Enact thy will. Become Lord. Seek the Elden Ring.
