Valve don't give out any sales details, because they never do ( information control is everything), but they do split the overall bestsellers into categories. Good work Genital Jousting, Into The Breach ( how did that not make the overall best-sellers list? Scandal!) and Monster Prom, for example. The more interesting page for those of us whose jaws remain defiantly stuck to the rest of our faces in response to the news that a lot of people bought Plunkbat, CSGO and GTA V is this one, which breaks down by month which bona fide 2018 new releases sold best. The complete list is below, or you can find a more visual galley, replete with buy me-buy me-buy me Steam store links over here.
It's a list dominated by pre-2018 names, to be frank, a great many of which you'll be expected, but there are a few surprises in there.Ģ018 releases Jurassic World Evolution, Far Cry 5 Kingdom Come: Deliverance and Warhammer: Vermintide II are wearing some spectacular money-hats, for example, while the relatively lesser-known likes of Raft, Eco and Deep Rock Galactic have made themselves heard above the din of triple-A marketing budgets. We've just passed the half-way point of 2018, so Ian Gatekeeper and all his fabulously wealthy chums over at Valve have revealed which hundred games have sold best on Steam over the past six months.
