Monster Hunter Wilds Hits Nearly 1M Concurrent Steam Players
Monster Hunter: Wilds has stormed onto the gaming scene with an explosive start, hitting nearly a million concurrent players on Steam. This action-packed adventure from Capcom is already making waves, becoming the eighth most-played game of all time on the platform. With its launch on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, the game is set to dominate the charts even further.
Record-Breaking Launch
The game has surpassed heavy hitters like Elden Ring, Hogwarts Legacy, and Baldur's Gate 3 in terms of concurrent players. It even outpaced its predecessor, Monster Hunter World, which peaked at 334,684 users on Steam back in 2018.
And that’s just Steam! With PlayStation and Xbox players joining in, the actual numbers are likely much higher. The big question now is: can it hit 2 million concurrent players?
What’s Next for Monster Hunter: Wilds?
Capcom hasn’t released sales figures yet, but the game is on track to be a massive success. Monster Hunter World sold over 25 million copies in six years, and Wilds seems poised to follow in its footsteps.
However, the game has received mixed reviews on Steam, with some players reporting performance issues. Despite this, IGN France gave it an 8/10, praising its fluid gameplay and stunning visuals.
