Elden Ring Smashes 600,000 Player Mark on Steam
Shadow of the Erdtree is here and already serving bits for the player count of Elden Ring. On Steam, the peak concurrent player count in the last 24 hours was shockingly 589,948 users — a week ago, it was 174,000 concurrent users, and a few months back it was at roughly 35,000 players. That reflects the performance of the game on all platforms since Shadow of the Erdtree has lately been published and is already firmly establishing itself as one of the best expansions of all times.
Just after the game’s release in February 2022, Elden Ring‘s all-time high player count on Steam comes out as shockingly 953,426. Since it dropped, Elden Ring has stayed somewhat constant on the popular PC platform, sitting near the top of the table and never declining concurrent count of 30,000 in a month. That’s great staying power for any game, and it’s one of the reasons Elden Ring boasts 93% positive Steam ratings.
Players are eager as Shadow of the Erdtree is out now on all platforms. Though it’s a super-sized DLC with a premium price point of $39.99, given all the expansion provides, it is well worth the money. One area of dissatisfaction, meanwhile, has been voiced by several supporters: Shadow of the Erdtree lacks fresh prizes or accomplishments. Given the size of the DLC, it seems like a minor detail that would not compromise the general calibre of the expansion.
