Elden Ring Back on Steam Throne; No Man's Sky Returns to Top 10

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga enjoyed the top selling position on Steam for only a week. Then it had to give way to Elden Ring. No Man's Sky is also doing great thanks to the Outlaws update.

Like every Monday the list of the biggest (by revenue) bestsellers of the previous week on Steam has been released.

Elden Ring's comeback

Steam Deck was the sales leader, and among video games, the most popular was Elden Ring. The hit RPG from FromSoftware has chased away the leader of the previous list, i.e. LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, whose various editions took the number three and four spots this week.

No Man's Sky on the roll

After a long absence, No Man's Sky returned to the top 10 due to the massive Outlaws update.

How much the patch contributed to the game's popularity is well illustrated by the fact that yesterday's activity record on Steam was 30,399 people, while on the previous Sunday it was only 9502.

The biggest Steam hits of the past week (by revenue)

In turn Call of Duty: Black Ops III owes its popularity to attractive discounts on Steam. Also Dread Hunger is still doing great. Last weekend the game failed to set a new activity record, but it lacked only a little over 4 thousand people to do so - yesterday, at the hottest moment of the day, the game was played by 103,887 players at the same time.
