Steam has released its official only being on Steam for a third of the year.
Strategy titan Total War: Three Kingdoms also makes out like a bandit, sitting at the top tier in top sellers, top new releases, and most played games lists. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, predictably, does the same. Some might be surprised to see Halo: Master Chief Collection in the top tier of most played games, but its availability on Xbox Game has apparently done nothing to dampen Steam players’ enthusiasm to own and play it on their storefront of choice. Several high profile Early Access releases also marked the year, with Oxygen Not Included, Astroneer, Slay the Spire, and Space Engineers making their way to full release. The VR category continues to underwhelm, Beat Saber aside, with few of the games in the lead there garnering much critical praise.
