DOOM: The Dark Ages topped the chart of the highest-grossing paid games on Steam
During the week from May 13 to May 20, DOOM: The Dark Ages reached the top position in the paid Steam chart — and the second overall. In the chart that also counts free-to-play projects, only the consistently leading Counter-Strike 2 surpassed it.
DOOM: The Dark Ages
Remember, a week earlier, the new DOOM — then still in pre-order — was fifth in the overall chart. Its release on May 15 helped boost its sales.
Right after DOOM: The Dark Ages, PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS rose 14 spots in the chart that week.
The Steam Deck portable PC continued to hold the fourth place in the chart.
Pre-orders for Stellar Blade secured the fifth spot. The game performed well despite its Steam version being unavailable in over a hundred countries where the PlayStation Network does not operate. Currently, developers from Shift Up are discussing lifting regional restrictions with Sony.
A 60% discount helped Cyberpunk 2077 re-enter the top 10. It climbed 58 spots to the seventh position over the week. The Phantom Liberty expansion was also noted in the chart at 22nd place, and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt settled at 16th place.
Helldivers 2 also made significant gains in the chart, with a major update propelling it to eighth place.
The ninth spot went to FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time — a charming RPG from the creators of the Ni no Kuni series. Early access for deluxe edition owners began on May 18, with the full release set for tomorrow.
A new entry, the police action game The Precinct, rounded out the top ten. Other new releases in the chart include RoadCraft (24th place), The Slormancer (44th place), Capcom Fighting Collection 2 (49th place), Cubic Odyssey (58th place), and Blacksmith Master (68th place).
