Steam Shatters Sales Record: Split Fiction's Triumph

Split Fiction has shattered records, achieving a historic milestone for Electronic Arts (EA) on Steam among paid games. Its impressive launch far exceeded expectations, captivating the gaming community.

Released recently on Steam, Split Fiction's success is particularly noteworthy compared to other EA titles. SteamDB data reveals a peak player count exceeding 197,000 users—the highest ever recorded for a paid EA game on the platform.

This surpasses even Battlefield V, the previous record holder with a peak of 116,000 players. While EA's free-to-play Apex Legends remains the most popular title, boasting over 620,000 peak players, Split Fiction's achievement is a significant accomplishment in the paid game market.

Beyond its remarkable performance, Split Fiction has earned overwhelming praise. Steam reviews overwhelmingly label it "overwhelmingly positive," boasting a remarkable 98% approval rating. This underscores not only the game's commercial triumph but also its widespread appeal among gamers globally.
