The gaming landscape continues to evolve, with the latest indie sensation, Peak, making waves as the third highest-grossing title on Steam last week. This remarkable ascent is marked by a climb from fifth place, having sold over two million copies in just nine days since its launch.
Steam’s Competitive Rankings
Leading the charge once again is Counter-Strike 2, which retains its position as the top game of the week. Meanwhile, the Steam Deck hardware has surged five spots to secure the second position, reflecting its growing popularity among gamers.
In a notable comeback, Cyberpunk 2077 has re-entered the Top Ten, landing in fourth place. This resurgence is largely attributed to a significant 65 percent price reduction during the Steam Summer Sale, propelling it up an impressive 77 spots. Following closely is PUBG: Battlegrounds, which maintains its hold on sixth place.
On the other hand, Dead by Daylight experienced a slight decline, dropping three spots to seventh. However, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has made a triumphant return to the Top Ten, now sitting in eighth place thanks to a ten percent price cut. The mid-season update for Apex Legends has also proven beneficial, boosting its ranking by 13 spots to ninth place.
Lastly, Dune: Awakening has slipped seven places, rounding out the Top Ten at number ten. The competitive nature of the Steam marketplace is evident as titles vie for attention and sales, showcasing the dynamic shifts that characterize this vibrant industry.
