Steamcharts is the source for these numbers
Yesterday’s peak was over 218 000 so it went up on day 2. I assume there are also a lot of people playing this on consoles.
Konami didn’t even announce a release date before, it got these numbers on a surprise launch.
Did people expect the numbers would be this big? I wasn’t expecting this. Why are the numbers this big?
One might say it is popular just because it is yugioh and a lot of people are nostalgic for the anime or the fun they had with the physical tcg, but if that’s the main reason then why didn’t the other yugioh games get nearly this big? Wouldn’t those other games be better than Master Duel for anyone looking for nostalgia?
Also do you expect this game will be able to maintain big numbers and officially be a big success to rival the other big digital card games on pc? Or do you expect the numbers to quickly and drastically shrink for some reason? Will Konami fuck this up somehow and end …
If there is an option to display this that I don’t know about a stand corrected.
