The new role-playing game from Owlcat Games studio may turn out to be one of the most moneyed releases in December. The project started from the fifth place of the top Steam bestsellers, taking into account free projects and Steam Deck. If you do not take them into account, then the game is in second place in terms of earnings per week, second only to the cooperative indie hit Lethal Company.

Recall that Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader is an isometric CRPG with turn—based battles and an extensive plot. The press met the game coolly (Meta — 75 points), while noting the excellent plot and excellent implementation of the Warhammer 40,000 universe. Players, judging by Steam estimates, turned out to be more supportive of the title (81% positive reviews).

The Day Before was also on the bestseller list. But already in 14th place, taking into account free projects and devices. Without taking them into account, they are in ninth place. To do this, it turned out to be enough for the game to sell 200 thousand copies at a base price of $ 40 (in fairness, we note that, perhaps, refunds were also taken into account in the top, in this case we are talking about 100 thousand copies).
By the way, the free-to-play multiplayer shooter The Finals, which was released last week, now showing an excellent and stable online 150-200 thousand players, started from the seventh position in the top.
