After launching a few weeks ago, Palworld players on Steam grew to 2.1 million in no time. This gave the game the second spot on Steam’s list of the most streamed games on the platform. However, that impressive number has now shrunk as the initial gamers’ fever seems to be clearing.
Now, according to new data available, Palworld players on Steam are about 750,000. This figure is about five-fourteenth of the initial 2.1 million that the platform was boasting of a few days ago. However, despite this massive drop in players of this new game that has been dubbed ‘Pokémon with guns’ it still reserves its place on the list of most played Steam games.
Some might argue that this downward spiral might continue for Palworld on platforms like Steam, as players might lose interest in playing. Others, however, might defend the game, saying that this reduction is only a phase in the game’s existence on Steam. Considering that this game is still new to the platform, it might be too early to consider this drop in players as a sign of downfall for the gaming title.
One source of the massive growth of this game in its early stages was its similarities with Pokémon, as well as its promotion. Due to these reasons, millions of players decided to check out the new game on Steam before bailing out a few days later. Well, the future of this game can’t be told now as it still has a lot of fights left in it as well as players that seem to be enjoying gameplay.
