Baldur’s Gate 3 has just broken a new record. It is officially one of the most played games on a very popular console. The third opus is unstoppable.
It’s a fact, Baldur’s Gate 3 is a huge hit. The RPG is not only aimed at regulars of the genre, but also at neophytes. Most of the players are formal, it’s a big nugget. So obviously, he did not steal his title of Game of the Year 2023, despite competition worthy of the name. Moreover, we have just understood how limitless his popularity is. In fact, we have been informed that it is the most played title on a specific console.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is the top pick on the Steam Deck
Yes, it’s official, BG3 is the preferred choice for Steam Deck owners. If we know this, it’s thanks to Valve which revealed the Top 100 most played games on its portable console. Larian Studios’ latest comes at the top of the list, which is a pretty impressive feat. Of course, this needs to be qualified. To make this top, the firm based itself on statistics from March 2023 to March 2024. It is therefore a sample taken over a single year. Despite this, we have no doubt about the success of the title which is just insane.
But then, who is hot on Baldur’s Gate 3? In second place, we have Vampire Survivors, the roguelike described as addictive by everyone who has approached it. They are followed by Dave the Diver who is just as popular. Unsurprisingly, we then have Hogwarts Legacy, which immerses us in the world of Harry Potter in a stunning open world. And finally, we have Elden Ring, the Game of the Year 2022, the one whose DLC we are impatiently awaiting in June 2024. It will put stars in our eyes again, and that will surely allow it to reach new heights.
It’s also worth noting that this list doesn’t just include games verified by the Steam Deck. We find, for example, Fallout 4 and Forza Horizon 5 in the list. In addition, we also note the presence of a certain number of survival-oriented productions. We notably have the excellent Terraria which, despite its venerable age, manages to climb into this ranking. But Valheim is also there, which is also not surprising given its loyal and active community. In any case, it’s a great performance from Baldur’s Gate 3, which continues to break all records.
