God of War Ragnarok PC Nearly Reaches 23,000 Concurrent Players on Steam
Santa Monica Studio’s God of War Ragnarok is finally available for PC. However, its launch has fallen short of its 2018 predecessor’s peak on Steam. According to SteamDB, it peaked at 22,967 concurrent players (at this time of writing).
Comparatively, God of War (2018)reached 73,529 concurrent Steam players on January 16th, 2022. Given that it launched on January 14th and saw impressive numbers over the weekend, Ragnarok could repeat this success. Of course, the previous title didn’t mandate linking Steam with PlayStation Network to play (despite being a single-player title), so you have to wonder how much impact that has on the sequel.
It also creates concern for Ballistic Moon’s upcoming remake of Until Dawn, which launches on October 4th for PS5 and PC, and also requires a PSN account on Steam. Stay tuned for updates on the same.
