We are studying the Steam sales chart for the 34th week of the year.
Top of the highest-grossing products on Steam for the period from August 22 to August 28#1 — Steam Deck
The first place in the rating for the 13th time in a row went to the portable PC Steam Deck.
Let’s move on to the games.
#2 — Destiny 2: Lightfall
Last week, Bungie unveiled a major new addition for Destiny 2 — Lightfall. Its events will unfold on Neptune and will be associated with a secret city called Neomuna. As promised by the developers, the add-on will be released on February 28, 2023.
Note that a bundle including an annual subscription for Destiny 2 got into the chart.
Destiny 2: Lightfall#3 and 6 — Total War: WARHAMMER III
Total War: WARHAMMER III took two places in the ranking at once. Most likely, the title managed to do this thanks to the sale and the beta test of the Immortal Empires mode that started on August 23.
On the day of the beta launch, the maximum daily online game jumped to 119,166 people. This is almost ten times more than it was the day before (12,155 people). At the time of writing the news online, Total War: WARHAMMER III has declined, but is still higher than usual — 42,087 people.
Total War: WARHAMMER III#4 — Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered
The remaster of “Spider-Man”, which had been leading among the games for the previous two weeks, went to fourth place. His daily online on Steam has decreased to the level of 22.3 thousand simultaneous players.
How did the number of simultaneous players in Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered change between August 12 and 28#5 — Cult of the Lamb
The game about the possessed sheep also weakened its position in the chart. If last time Cult of the Lamb took the third place, now it is the fifth.
Cult of the Lamb#7 — F1 Manager 2022
F1 Manager 2022 got into the rating against the background of recently opened pre-orders. Recall that the release of the racing simulator is scheduled for August 30.
F1 Manager 2022#8 — Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice
Next in the top ten best-selling projects of the week was Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Probably, the game has returned to the Steam sales chart thanks to a 50% discount.
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice#9 — Hogwarts Legacy
The ninth place in the ranking went to the pre-orders of Hogwarts Legacy, which started on August 25. Initially, it was assumed that the game would be released at the end of 2022, but recently the developers announced that the release would take place only on February 10, 2023.
Hogwarts Legacy#10 — NARAKA: BLADEPOINT
The Chinese NARAKA: BLADEPOINT closed the Steam sales chart, returning to the rating with a 50% discount.
