It should be noted that recently another game, Amplitude Studios, experienced a sharp increase in popularity on Steam. It's about Endless Legend. On January 19, the studio started distributing keys in honor of its birthday. The next day, the online title grew from 211 to a record 89,190 people. However, the indicator soon returned to normal values. At the time of writing the news, Endless Legend has 474 people online.

Dungeon of the Endless, which, like Endless Space, is now being sold at an 80% discount, has also grown online on Steam, but less significantly: from 89 to 4940 people.
The cheaper Endless Space 2, Endless Dungeon and Humankind did not cause much excitement among Steam users.
