Sure thing, let’s dive into the chaotic wonderland of gaming on Steam this week. So, guess what? RimWorld is making waves again! Yup, it bounced back into Steam’s top ten with a dramatic flair, all due to the new Odyssey DLC.
It skyrocketed—like we’re talking 58 spots—to land in the No. 3 spot. And yeah, that 20% off probably helped. Oh, and Odyssey managed to be the fifth best-seller right after dropping on July 11th. Pretty neat.
In the predictable world of gaming giants, Counter-Strike 2 held onto the top grossing title. But then, PUBG’s been creeping up! A collab with K-pop sensation Aespa shot it up to second place. And I can’t even—like, imagine the combo: video games and K-pop. Mind-blowing, right?
Oh, and speaking of quirky, Steam Deck took a little tumble down to fourth place. I mean, things happen, right? Just ahead in fifth sits Marvel Rivals, which had a glow-up thanks to a content drop. Didn’t plan on talking about that, but hey, it caught my eye.
But wait, Peak, this indie darling, slipped down four places to No. 7, even after selling over 4.5 million copies. Go figure. And out of nowhere, Destiny 2 pops back on the list, likely stretching its legs ’cause of The Edge of Fate expansion.
Naraka: Bladepoint, that spicy martial arts battle royale, danced into ninth spot. As for Dead by Daylight, it kinda shuffled down to tenth, like a guest at a party just chilling by the snacks.
So here’s the week’s chaotic top ten on Steam, wrapped up in my perfectly imperfect flair. Catch these names echoing in the gaming halls:
1. Counter-Strike 2, Valve
2. PUBG: Battlegrounds, Krafton
3. RimWorld, Ludeon Studios
4. Steam Deck, Valve
5. RimWorld – Odyssey, Ludeon Studios
6. Marvel Rivals, NetEase
7. Peak, Aggro Crab
8. Destiny 2, Bungie
9. Naraka: Bladepoint, NetEase
10. Dead by Daylight, Behaviour Interactive
And who knows where they’ll end up next week? Kinda like a soap opera but with controllers. I mean, who even knows what’s coming next… until then!
