Silksong is huge, but it’s way huger on PC: Steam was Team Cherry’s biggest US platform, analyst says, and the game didn’t even break top 50 on PlayStation

Hollow Knight: Silksong was released by Team Cherry on September 4 and peaked at 587,150 concurrent players on Steam. The PlayStation Store had a slower uptake compared to PC, with a delayed update for the game's listing contributing to a subdued response from North American PS4 and PS5 players. Many opted to purchase the game through other channels or did not buy it due to its availability for free to Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass subscribers. Observations are based on the game's release day, indicating potential for increased interest over time.

Paradox refunds PlayStation Store preorders of Bloodlines 2 in preparation for ‘adjustments’ to its reviled $30 DLC to be revealed later this month

Paradox Interactive has initiated a refund process for PlayStation Store preorders of Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 due to backlash over its pricing structure, which includes core content behind a DLC paywall. Customers are advised to renew their orders after planned adjustments to the game and pricing, with details to be revealed on September 17th ahead of the game's release on October 21st. Players who preordered on Steam may also be eligible for partial or full refunds based on DLC pricing changes. The decision to lock two of the six playable clans behind a DLC has faced criticism, especially compared to the original game, which offered seven clans. The game's development has been tumultuous, initially starting at Hardsuit Labs with a 2020 release date, then rebooted under The Chinese Room. Early impressions suggest potential improvement, but the DLC pricing strategy has dampened enthusiasm among players. Many hope for all clans to be included in the base game with an adjusted Premium Edition price.

Ready or Not hits 1m console sales in 4 days despite “censorship” claims from its PC players

Void Interactive's shooter, Ready or Not, achieved over one million sales on consoles within four days, compared to 36 days for its initial PC launch. CEO Julio Rodriguez expressed pride in this milestone and acknowledged the team's hard work. The game faced backlash due to necessary content changes mandated by first-party partners, leading to a drop in its Steam rating from "mostly positive" to "mostly negative," while still maintaining a score of 4 out of 5 on Xbox and 4.69 on PlayStation. Void Interactive also parted ways with its publisher, Team17, after announcing a controversial school shooting mission.
