No project predictably managed to displace Black Myth: Wukong from the top of the highest-grossing products on Steam. Thanks to a successful release, Game Science's game once again surpassed everyone in weekly revenue, leading the charts for both paid and free titles.
Black Myth: Wukong
Second and third places, as in the previous week, were taken by Counter-Strike 2 and PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS. Dota 2 returned to the fourth place, and Steam Deck rounded out the top 5 of the general chart.
Steam users continued actively preordering Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. These games climbed four and 12 positions respectively in the chart to the seventh and eighth spots. Preorders for Sid Meier’s Civilization VII also made it to the 14th place.
Tactical Breach Wizards showed a strong start — a tactics game about armed wizards from indie studio Suspicious Developments. It debuted at 21st place in the general chart and 11th in the chart for paid products only.
Helldivers 2 was close to leaving the top 50 of the general chart, dropping to the 49th place.

Note: SteamDB categorized 雀魂麻将(MahjongSoul) as a premium game and placed it in the fifth spot in the paid chart instead of Diablo IV. However, 雀魂麻将(MahjongSoul) is actually free. The game is available only in China, so a regional restriction in the SteamDB system might have caused the error.
