Battlefield 6 Is Already Doing Huge Numbers On Steam

Here is a 191-word summary of the news article: Battlefield 6 has enjoyed a tremendously successful launch on Steam, breaking franchise records for concurrent players. Over its launch weekend, the game regularly exceeded 740,000 concurrent players, making it the most played Battlefield title on the platform. It has consistently retained a large playerbase, rarely dropping below 200,000 active players. Battlefield 6 is currently the #1 top-selling game on Steam, an impressive feat given its $70 price tag. Its launch numbers have surpassed the all-time highs of other major shooters like Call of Duty and Apex Legends. The game's strong performance follows a well-received open beta in August and anticipation built up through the Battlefield Labs testing program. Developers have touted the game as a "return to form" for the series, drawing inspiration from fan-favorite titles like Battlefield 3 and 4. While Battlefield 6 has enjoyed an outstanding start, the challenge will be maintaining this momentum as it faces competition from upcoming releases like Black Ops 7. However, the game's record-breaking launch on Steam suggests it has struck a chord with players.
