Red Dead Redemption 2: Record Players After Huge Steam Sale
Red Dead Redemption 2 Shatters Steam Concurrent Player Records
Red Dead Redemption 2 is experiencing a massive resurgence on Steam, thanks to a significant Rockstar Games publisher sale. The game, discounted to its lowest price ever, is seeing its highest concurrent player numbers since its release five years ago.
Record-Breaking Success
SteamDB data shows a steady climb in players since the sale began on January 24. The peak concurrent player count surpassed 86,717 on January 26, a substantial increase compared to previous years. This impressive surge highlights the game’s enduring appeal.
Critical Acclaim and PC Success
Red Dead Redemption 2 maintains a 98 Metacritic score and received GameSpot’s Game of the Year award in 2018. While its initial PC release had issues, subsequent updates transformed it into a worthy port, earning it a place among the generation’s best games. It also ranked among the top 100 most-played games on Steam Deck.
Rockstar Sale Extends to Other Titles
The Steam sale includes other Rockstar titles such as the original Red Dead Redemption, Grand Theft Auto V, The Grand Theft Auto Trilogy, and Bully: Scholarship Edition. This provides a nostalgic opportunity for gamers while waiting for news about Grand Theft Auto 6, anticipated to launch in Fall 2025.
