Stray Claws to the Top of Steam Bestseller List

Marine surivival game Raft continued to sell brilliantly on Steam last week. The real revelation, however, is the adventure game Stray, which is now the store's biggest bestseller.

As every other Monday a list of the biggest (by revenue) bestsellers of the past week on Steam has been released.

The leader's position was defended by Steam Deck, but there were significant changes in the lower places of the list.

Stray climbs higher and higher

In third place we have the preorders of Stray, a game in which we will play as a cat, roaming a cyberpunk city. The game debuted in the lower positions of the list a few weeks ago, but then fell out of the top 10.

The return to the top 10 is due to the imminent release - Stray will go on sale tomorrow. We expect the project to turn out to be a big hit - it currently dominates Steam wishlists. Moreover, at the time of writing this news, it is the service's biggest global bestseller.

Raft still on a roll

The renaissance of marine survivalism continues at its best with Raft - for the second time in a row the game took the 2nd place on the list. The game is on a roll thanks to, among other things the largest update in history.

Players are not only buying the title en masse, but also praise it highly - on Steam 92% of user ratings from the last 30 days are positive. Considering all the ratings given since the early access release, the percentage is 93%, so Raft maintains a good reputation among gamers.
